Are Randomizer buffs really random?

TL;DR - why do the same buffs get rerolled over and over when randomizing?

"I would love to just say that this is such genius programming, RNG", he said dripping with sarcasm.

Before you ask, no I didn't get a video of it because I am not generally in the business of taking video when swapping buffs out. I just was in MODOK's island, and I got Masochism and Spiked Armor on the Boss fight, so I decided to swap them. Guess what I rolled...Spiked Armor and Masochism. Fair, it happens, I write programs with RNG in them, I play Dice games, I get it. So I rolled my eyes and rerolled the buffs, guess what I got? Can you? Yep. Masochism and Spiked Armor. Cool. Cool. Again? Sure I have 3 more left, can't happen again....it happened AGAIN! Now come on, there has to be some mechanism for excluding at least ONE of the previous buffs from the RNG.

In case you were wondering, the next reroll was Masochism and Spite, and my last and final (because I HAD t o know) was Spiked armor...and wait for it, Masochism. Come on, really? Now I'm out my randomizers....fun times. Way to make it awesome and interactive.

    Hey hey hey, Kabam reserves the right to define what “random buffs” and “RNG” means.

    It's not really random as I saw. On the final boss, the same 4-5 buffs were paired again and again ( spite, maso, oscillate, mighty charge 3)

    Don't use em inless ya gotta! I still have a bunch from last time cause it was easier to run the quests without em. Of course toward the end i attempted to burn them up by just wasting them and still ended up with 3 or 4 (apparantly) permanatly added to my items storage. I left other extras in overflow and let em disappear when time expired.

    Then what is the point of even having them? Just say random buffs are random buffs and good luck?

    Kabam should have code that makes it once you re-roll, then the same buffs can't come back up.
