Coinflip, enormous issue in Pro Ladder and possible solution
Since this Pro Ladder seasons started I decided to try to get into top 200, because maybe that will get me somewhere, hopefully salt mine
Yesterday I had very mean streak of Blue coins which certainly didn't help my fMMR, so I decided to track the coinflip today, I got 16 Blue and 4 Red coins so far.
As I noted wins as well, I noted I have 100% win rate on Red coin with three different decks, while less than 50% with Blue coin. Maybe those numbers as well as overall percentage of Blue/Red coin doesn't hold on the long run, but it is acutely agitating and unnecessary.
As CDPR addressed the coinflip in tournaments, it would go a long way to institute alternating coinflip in Pro Ladder as well. So, when someone gets Blue coin, next game he will get guaranteed Red coin, while be pair exclusively with player who previously got the Red coin, so everyone would get Red coin reliably every other game.
I implore the devs to consider this and make Pro Ladder platform for demonstration of skill, untarnished by Blue streaks that wreck the mood and fMMR.
