Is “Balanced Blitz” not so so balanced lately?

[pine dust]

So I’ve really been grinding to hit GM and I keep getting not so balanced blitzes lately. I don’t know if it’s just because I’m paying more attention but it’s just really pissing me off. Here are a few examples.

2 and 3 are known to be bugged, which happens for a "large" (>70) number of troops. Only 3 should really be impossible, 2 probably happens more often than it should, due to the bug. The rest is just likely to happen.

31v15 (cap) lose 28v15:  21.40% (this bad or worse for you)
80v93 lose 63v93:        2.26% (this bad or worse for you)
143v182 lose 126v182:    0% (this bad or worse for you)
15v11 (cap) lose 11v11:  17.63% (this bad or worse for you)
30v16 (cap) lose 30v11:  10.22% (this bad or worse for you)

Balanced blitz isn’t too bad for for odds, but could do with more work on troops-left

I don’t see anything wrong with the second to last one but the rest I agree are insane

(1) Your attack on that capital is to be expected
(4) Their hit on your capital was really lucky
(5) same as (1)

It shouldn't be that easy to take capitals. If I lose 16 to a 4 on a capital, how is it fair for someone else to be able to take a capital with an equal amount of troops?

I see

(13)12v4 is already 100%, so you don’t. Also don’t see why it would be unfair.

10-21% probability range; is rolling 1 with a die also considered insane?

I completely agree. The BB has taken a complete nosedive. It’s actually gotten worse this last week for me than I have ever seen. I’m sure people will make excuses for it, but when you have played thousands of hours of this game, you tend to know what can happen, what should happen and what is a glitch. People taking capitols with the same amount of troops as me or even less or just a couple more is more of an oddity, as it didn’t happen the first couple of years except in very rare cases. Over the last two weeks it’s happened more than 5 times to me… that dog don’t hunt. Same with people attacking me with larger than usual odds against them. So a 16 to 20 for instance happened to me, I lost everything and they lost none? Ridiculous! But it literally just happened this last game and is why I’m even posting here trying to figure out if I want to continue to play this game, honestly.

Don't quit playing, it's annoying as hell but not worth quitting over. I posted this in my grind to GM and was soooo annoyed cause as you said, it just kept happening. I ended hitting gm and just play tournaments and play with friends games now that aren't ranked and it's so much better. Keep risking it for the biscuits!
