The presence of luck-based mechanics in a strategy game can be both a blessing and a massive frustration.

However, it still exists in subtle ways that can completely alter the outcome of a very close match.
Starting Hands and Card Rotation
Your starting hand is entirely random, which can immediately put you at a massive disadvantage against an aggressive opening.

Professional players build their decks specifically to minimize the chances of a truly unplayable starting hand.

Another subtle layer of RNG comes from the slight inconsistencies in how the game's AI handles pathfinding.

Leaving a slight margin for error in your defensive placements is the best way to handle AI unpredictability.

Getting angry at a bad starting hand only causes you to make further mistakes and lose the match entirely.

If you are stuck in a lower arena, it is because of your fundamental mechanics, not the random number generator.
