Players constantly argue over whether randomness adds exciting unpredictability or ruins the integrity of esports.

In the context of lane-pushing arena battlers, RNG is typically minimized compared to card games or auto-battlers.

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.

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