Availability of some units.

Hi, I am trying to play comps that aren't meta like Blademasters and I noticed very weird issue.

It seems that some units have different size pool than others.

Lol wiki states that each gold1 unit is 39x in the shared pool. I don't know where this data came from as there is no way to calculate this information from what we can see in game. Maybe it is number based on Dota Underlords which TFT is a copy of? I don't know anyway.

Tell me, do you feel that all units appears with same frequency? I played around 100 games since TFT was available and I have a strong feeling it isn't the case.

Vayne and Tristana and maybe also newly demoted Elise to 1 gold. These champions appears very very frequently. There might be more but I noticed these two especially. First of all, in every second game someone has a lvl 3 vayne or tristana before Golems. And that despite the fact that both units are very popular and lot of players are taking them. It is common to see 2 players with 3star Vayne at Raptors stage or several players having two 2star Vaynes and few more. Kinda like there would be some buff to unit size for these champs.

Fiora on the other hand. I am almost always going for Blademaster comp. And I simply cannot get Fiora to level 3. From 20 last games where I went Blademasters I was able to combine 3star Fiora only in two of them. Two. And that was usually few rounds after Raptors or even after Dragon. She is just not there and it isn't even about other players taking her. She is considered F (fuck this champ is bad) tier so only noble players are taking her and neither they are able to combine her to 3 stars. And I am not even close. Like 2 Fioras till Raptors only, not even 2star. Or just 4 total. Last 8 games I didn't get more than 6 Fioras total till game ended. How is this even possible? Doesn't matter if I sit on gold and hyper roll or rolling gold every round till 0 and not buying XP at all, result is always the same.

So, do you guys noticed similar issue or I am just extremely unlucky?

Ive been saying this for a little while. While there may be 39 copies of a hero, there is no official statement that every hero has an equal chance to show in the rotation compared to other champions of the same tier.
