Battleground picking order is bugged.

This season the randomness who decides which pick first It's not random at all. My last 10 games (could've been more, I only observed 10) I always started first. I didn't pay much attention before until i reached Gladiator Circuit, at this stage decks are very similar with no free ride (5* decks) and the picking order is de-facto the win/lose condition. 3rd round is almost 90% lose if u start first, 10% only if opponents messed up. So skill is 10% a decision factor in a game mode that has been introduced as 100% skill based win condition. I think its about time kabam do smth about this. Placement i think should take place simultaneously on both sides and defender should be visible only on the attacker-picking phase.

    I was picking first about 90-95% of my games when I was in the Victory Track but the other day I did like 10 or so matches in the GC and it felt like a 50/50 split.

    Curios if others experienced this.

    For as much as I can remember, I picked 1st my entire run through VT(started in plat). I've done 5 GC matches & the last one was the 1st time I had last pick & placed 2nd

    They say it's random but doesn't feel random to me. I can clearly understand picking first 3 times in a row due to randomnes but in a situation where outcomes are only 2 and the output is 9 to 1 or 10 to 0 this is clearly not random.
