coin flips

just lost 9 or 10 coin flips in a row...

...I'm NGL, I saw the title and thought it was falcon but was confused because I have him blocked.

Anyway, bad RNG aside, it will get better. the more games you play, the more it will get closer to the average. Most people just don't feel a need to make a post when they get 7+ heads in a row though.

You know what I do when I am winning or losing coin flips? I adjust my deck so that it matches the result better. I learnt how to go first better because of RNG giving me coin flip wins for awhile. Learn how to win when you lose the flip.

^this. I tend to do it too. If I hit a streak of tails, I swap to mikanko for a bit. If I get a streak of heads, I swap to Voiceless Voice. If I just don't care I'll go for live twins or whatever deck I happen to be feeling at the time.

Play a deck geared for going 2nd and your coin flip success rate will suddenly improve.

In which case it won't likely matter because you can just choose second.

Put Bowganian 3x in your deck, it boosts coinflip chance.

I doubt such a thing could to win coin tosses.

What you need to do is add Origami Goddess, Cup of Ace x3, and Couple of Aces to your deck.

Origami Goddess starts off as 100/0, but it has an effect that lets you flip a coin repeatedly until you get a tails. You draw a card for every 2 heads from this effect. Every heads coin flip from any effect also DOUBLES this monster's attack permanently. It can reach either 99 million or 999 million attack from this.

Cup of Ace is a spell card coin flip, and you draw 2 cards if you get a heads.
Couple of Aces is a monster version of Cup of Ace that's limited to once per turn.

If you ever start off with the god combo of Origami Goddess, Cup of Ace x3, and Couple of Aces in your opening hand, you'll know what it's like to end with your turn with one 100/0 monster, and your opponent having 13 cards in their hand.

How does that help with the coin flip decider? Can it help make you go first all the time?

Getting 7+ heads in a row exists? I don't think I've ever seen more than 3.

I had a really hot streak where I got dozens of heads between each tails. It was crazy. Good times.

Considering I was playing my PUNK deck for fun, failed the coin flip 3 times in a row, and opened 2 games with Deer Note (1-of) in hand, may I ask where one can acquire such luck?

There are literally over 9000 people playing the game at basically any given time. The law of large numbers will make streaks of bad luck like yours happen basically constantly.

Just keep playing. It's the same mathematical guarantee as terrible luck.

Nah. My point was that RNG can be very evil.
Sometimes all you can do is surrender and hope you win the next coinflip.
