Anyone else having wildly different luck night-to-night?

Submitted 4 years, 1 month ago by

For context, I usually play for 1-2 hours ranked (hovering at gold 3-4 ATM) every night.  Lately, it seems like I've been getting wildly different results every night.  Like yesterday: I had a quest to frost bite so I was playing my Frejlord/Noxus battle scar deck but I could get a win to save my life.  Then I switched over to my SI/Noxus spider deck and went something like 4-2.  Tonight, it's been the exact opposite: I had a fearsome quest, spiders couldn't get a win, but battle scars were on fire.  

I just found it amusing that I'm getting practically polar opposite results over such a short time period.   Anyone else experiencing anything like that?

    Is that luck, or is it something else? Plenty of external factors could affect that (not least your own drive, alertness, tilt factor etc.).

    I find my luck to be fairly consistent in LoR with occasional spikes of excellence, but I'd imagine that'll change when I start actually trying to grind ranked...

    Happens to me, too. I have a mono-Freljord Frostbite deck. One day, I can go on a tear with it (unranked), and the next, I'll struggle for the better part of an hour to even score my 400-XP bonus for the day.

    Believe it or not, this is a sign of a healthy game.

    It means there are so many viable decks out there that you cannot just pick the "best" one and rely on it to propel you up the ladder. The meta shifts quickly as different streamers popularize different decks, with many switching it up every day or two.

    And of course, players who build their own decks have a pretty good chance of putting together something that works in a game that makes the claim, "Every card should have a home."

    This may seem daunting for players with small collections, but the good news is that you can often go back to an old favorite that you thought had stopped working, and suddenly find that it's strong again. The other good news is that you can complete quests against the AI, so there's a path forward even when it seems like absolutely nothing can win in PvP.

    card games involve RNG.

    just how it be. 

    some days your best meta constructed deck get smashed.

    other days you go 7-0 with troll elnuk deck in expeditions.
