Does anyone know if there have been clear statements made about the randomness of the heros you are presented with at the start of a Battlegrounds game?
I ask this in all seriousness. For over a week now I have been presented with The Jailer as an option every 3-4 games. I only get 2 hero options. The odds of this are staggering.
I wonder if they have an algorithm that tries to determine heros you like to play and favors odds towards those. The issue for me seems to be that I tried The Jailor out several times to get to know him, and now he's stalking me. Most times he shows up I don't want to play him but have to since the other choice is terrible. Which, if there is favoritism going on, makes him show up more often for me.
Or have I just gone crazy in the face of these staggering odds?
It has been known for a while that new heroes are presented to at least one player in each lobby for a period of time. Before it was for people who bought the perks. I'm not sure if that is still the same.

Correct. This was changed with the reward track and it can always only be one player (because there can't be a duplicate).

Oh and it's two weeks after introduction.
Ah, I didn't know it was extended to all players now. That makes sense.
