It is not random, is just bad design.

For example fight the same player on the first 3 rounds is ridiculous.They should fix the fights.

You clearly don't understand how random works.

This is programming. There are different ways to produce random results.

For example, randomly selecting from the pool of opponents you haven't played yet this round.

On the other hand, a non-random option that would be the equivalent of the inverse carousel draft would be to always match people against their nearest competitor. 1 vs 2, 3 vs 4. That would shuffle people around a lot, since more often than not the losers would end up dropping a rank or more.

It shouldn't have to match you up against the nearest competitor and it really only matters who has the best team not the best hp considering a guy low on hp that you fight could of went all in and all of a sudden you are losing 20+ hp in a fight.

I think this is getting fixed.

I queued up with 2 friends. They fought each other constantly, I fought one once, and never once faced the other one. It was a huge letdown and not something I'm excited to revisit.

I don't see the point of having every single aspect of the game be completely random. That's one hell of a crutch to rely on for longevity when they can instead add actual depth.

I agree, loosing many games with easily 2-3rd strongest build, due to facing top player 2-3x in 4 rounds. Much rather have it be random, but can't face the same player in a row, or twice in 4-5 rounds. If you get to top 4-5 this changes to just random + can't find the same guy in a row, but you could every other match. And of course top 3 it just becomes random.
