@orangebubbles — Unfortunately, statistics are brutal, and it is very easy to fool oneself into thinking a truly random process is not. The statistics for getting a gift in AB2 are even more brutal than those for getting the first turn in the Epic arena, because the probability for getting a gift in the best levels appears to be <1/10, while the probability of getting the first turn in the arena is 1/2. Flip a coin 100 times (better yet several hundred) and keep track of heads or tails. You will find that there are stretches of many in a row that are all heads or all tails. For comparison, roll a dice a couple of hundred times and keep track of rolls giving a 6 compared to anything else. You will find even longer stretches of rolls with no 6’s.
See comments by me and @wrw01 above about the number of consecutive tries on the first scene with level 9 with no gifts.
