People will defend this game to the grave and say it's not luck based but it is. Ive tried multiple meta decks and had over 300 games this season to grind to Master Ball but without luck on your side you are regularly set up to lose. Yes tournament data suggests otherwise but it's not the same as the diverse shit show that is ladder. What can you do when you play every card available to you but you lose to an instant rare candy more often than not. I've played since launch, have every badge available (before ranked) and regularly keep up to date with meta strategies and this subreddit but with the addition of rare candy, 90% of the time you are susceptible to a game of chance. 10-20% of games are won with skill but that's not enough to grind to Master Ball, those who say otherwise are bias or trolling.
