I just fought about a dozen FG battles and not a single card. That makes 30 battles since 1.21 and 2 cards won. I think something's up.  ???

Whereas I was winning way more cards than usually from AI3 today. :D For instance I got two cards from a single game four times in way under twenty matches. I also won another Miracle today and got a nymph from the Oracle. But I just nearly got a Pharaoh and a second Discord, so my luck still isn't through the roof here.

This! This is what spins looks like to me, spins looks very much like each other with small change.
Lets say that the code picks cards (a)(b)(c)(d) and (e)
Then my spins may look like [a,b,c] [d,c,c] [e,e,a] or [c,b,c] [b,b,b] [e,e,a]. I cant recall a single time when i have seen more than 5 cards and I've been playings almost daily since February.

About the nerf thingie. Ive had bad spins since Saturday til today but then FGs had a spinspree and gave me 2 cards each a few times yet another few singles so I don't know.
Again, this isn't how it works, as far as I know. This is what it would do:

code picks cards (a)(b)(c)(d) and (e)
you spin [c,c,d]
code picks cards (a)(c)(b)(f) and (b)
you spin [f,b,b]
code picks cards (f)(f)(f)(p) and (u)
you spin [f,f,f]
Knowing this doesn't really get you any info to work into a game application besides knowing how to build the best farms right? Other than that it only have value as statistics and math i think.

Since it is as PuppyChow said i think is somewhat strange that my spins are so alike each other. 8-9/10 games i get 5 or 10 extra coins...

If Zanz says the spins haven't changed then it's all psychological. You're more inclined to remember the bad times than the good ones. I think this has been posted already but just wanted to say it again :P

i had won 10 cards out of 13 wins the other day so obviously i don't think it's any worse now.  ;)

I've won like 15+ cards in 3-4 hours two days ago, and zero of them since then...I'll try to clear my cache, this is a bit too much for bad luck.
I've never won a Nymph either and I use Oracle every day.

I've just completed my 300th wiining game in the last few days against AI3 and the card wins is at 87 (Plausibly 2-3 off cause of sideboarding/upgrading).

From what others have said, they have been doing ok so it seems that I and those not getting cards were just at the bootom of the luck curve. Try refreshing the cache and or mixing up the opponents, maybe you just needed a change. Mine helped me.

PS. No plausible evidence to show that the spin machine is bugged since 1.21 release but keep your eye on it just in case.

I think it was just my bad luck, I've been getting some decent amount of card recently. It's probably a coincidence that I had bad luck for two weeks.
