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

In the context of lane-pushing arena battlers, RNG is typically minimized compared to card games or auto-battlers.
The Luck of the Draw
Your starting hand is entirely random, which can immediately put you at a massive disadvantage against an aggressive opening.

Once the initial hand is played, the rotation becomes fixed, and pure skill and memory take over.
Make the best play available with what you have.Track the opponent's rotation after the first cycle.It prevents matches from feeling perfectly scripted. Unit Targeting and Pathfinding
Sometimes a unit will retarget unexpectedly due to a micro-movement by another troop, completely ruining your defensive setup.

To counter this, veterans always place defensive buildings in exactly the same specific tiles to guarantee consistent pulls.
