If you read through the forums, many people including myself say things are predetermined.
So what do we really mean?

Many think that this means the game is rigged.

It does not.

Watch your screen while playing the game.

If you go into battle there is a loading bar.
But if you hit sanctify there is no loading bar.

WHY??????

Because teh software can basically do some things in advance. It can do all the RNG for some things in the game and store it. Because there are limited amount of factors involved in that process.
SO in battle, you can change all the runes armor and heroes around. That would be an incredible amount of information to store server side, so all those RNGs are done when you click on a fight.

But the only thing to determine on a sanctify is what is the saint going to be if it is successful and what happens if the player use 1,2,3, or at some levels 4 or 5 cards.
Thats not a lot of information to store. SO things like the sanctifies are calculated ahead of time and stored server side. SO are things like star successes, chest and casino prizes, etc

SO when we say something is predetermined, that is a slightly misleading word to use. The RNG of certain events in game are calculated and stored on the server ahead of time, to save processing time and provide smoother game play - THAT'S IT.


I have seen no evidence that these results are manipulated by devs
There is no way for players to manipulate this information -- although knowing some of it ahead of time could prove useful

Also the lab layout is sort of an in between thing. Every possible lab layout is probably stored on the server, and one is randomly chosen when you click enter, and once you hit enter the lab layout does not change until you start a new lab.

SO can we stop the RIGGED conversations.
