i try to keep a 60 -64 card deck with a static 20 attacks. i always check my attacks. is there something im doing wrong? Im not being hyperbolic either. im ALWAYS checking attacks somehow
Confirmation bias is powerful - try actually tallying your next 5-10 games including what you check on builds etc when it doesn't matter. But there is also something to be said for shuffling practices. Unsure how true this actually is, but there is a line of thought that foils will be more likely to clump together when you do hammer/riffle shuffles, due to their slight curl. Personally I add perfect fit inner sleeves for big events, which helps flatten cards out, and time permitting I like to do hammers -> a pile shuffle -> only a couple light hammers before the cut. Still though, a string of orange cards is also just the output of true randomness. Just from a quick monte carlo (not very double checked), there will be a clump of 3+ attacks in a true random 20/40 deck some ~84% of the time, and in half or more of those cases there will be two of them. Clumps of four should appear regularly (36.7% of shuffled decks) and five not that rare (11.5%).
Really great to see content about how to build a deck
WHOA VETERAN KNOWLEDGE!!! YEAAA BUDDY!!!
