Avatar of Mist : dissolving the best cards ?

[miletempo]

Seems that it picks the strongest cards from the draw pack to dissolve !!
Can it be a coincidence? In many runs, boss will dissolve 2 gem cards, or special cards from events, or the strongest cards

I beat him on my first run, seems like he takes cards from the top of the deck as he took all of my "put on top of deck at end of turn gem cards" as well as one of my wounds. :P

Skip forward to 5:12:00 to watch the final boss fight vs Avatar of Mist.

Kaen has it. Top of the deck, no other logic.

And i think this is one of the games there your deck is derandomized a little and they never tell you.
I think the patchnotes referenced that. So it might be that some unlucky discards come from that.

For example Monster Train tries to give you a so called Banner Unit each turn and thus your top card is often a Monster which is bad if you draw into it but forgot to hold up the mana.
If such a thing is know its usually talked about on reddit.

We don't mess with your deck rng at all.

With the caveat that players can mess with their deck's rng (I'm thinking of the gem that puts your card at the top of your deck.)

Technically, that's a player mechanic, not an inherent function of rng. Giving the player the ability to manipulate the deck does not change the fact that there are no extra mechanics by which the rng is manipulated internally. Without player input, the deck is not manipulated in any way; thus the developers do not mess with rng.
