random bgs a lie?

[Hizumi]

getting the same battleground 5 times in a row isn't random please fix it.

Actually... it is.

If I flip a coin 5 times and get heads every time, do I still have a 50% chance to get tails?

Take into account the most commonly blacklisted BGs, assume you're less likely to get those, and more likely to get ones that fewer people blacklist, and a 5-same-BG streak isn't very far-fetched.

maybe, but I would check the coin to see if it was damaged.

[Hizumi]

no it isn't.

So what you want is a random BG but not the same BG you had as last time.

That isn't random.

[Damax]

If you get 5 times the call to arm its normal. People specific queues that bg when its their favorite

I have SOTA and Isle blacklisted and i would say about 90% of my bgs are AV.

Tho i dont have any problems with it, fun to global bots.

Actually, it is random. It's your luck that sucks. You have an equal chance to get every BG (Minus the 2 you've down rated.) Just because you're getting the same BG over and over doesn't mean you have any less of a chance to get a different BG.

Even if it is "random" queue, it still pays attention to what other specific battlegrounds people queue for. If there are 39 people lined up for AV and you queue for a random BG, you're gonna get AV. Simply means the BG you're getting into is popular.
