No, it's a life saver and a game changer. Which for casual play is fine, but if you're going for a competitive environment, you should try to minimize the impact luck has in the game. All card games have luck. What happens if you start off with a really bad deck? That's luck. Also, you might be the person getting the insta-block at 1 health and win. It's 50-50. All card games have luck yes, but you can minimize the luck involved in winning. The only unavoidable part of card games that is affected by luck is the cards you draw, but even then you can minimize it by building a good balanced deck. Removing insta-charges from Ranked mode would do nothing but good for the game.

Yes, I have too, and I wasn't happy with those either, cause I didn't earn that win, I just got lucky. And winning because of luck and nothing else is not fun for anyone. It's not just insta-blocks. Let's say you're block meter charged up to 8 and you're about to die. Will it charge up 1 or 2? It's luck. Yes but the chances for regular charges are always a third or two thirds, so I can play around the most likely option.

With insta-charges being so unlikely and the fact they can happen at any moment you can't play around them all the time, so your strategy randomly gets ruined with nothing you could do to predict it. 5 percent is very less. 1/20 times.
