Currently, when ever I load up the lastest version of the deck, or a tez build in MWS I'll get draws like 5 land a mox and a force. I'll mulligan and get : ancestral , walk, waste, spell pierce , tinker, mulligan again and get no land, mulligan again and get regrowth mox jet and wasteland etc etc etc all damn night long.

Meanwhile my opponents proceed to play 30 spells on turn one and / or beat me in the fast or time vault me. Is there some secret to having MWS not jew you out of games while you are trying to test ? I'm just getting sick and tired of losing to MWS giving me junk draws constantly.

The shuffling algorithm for MWS is faulty this is a known flaw.

I like my Magic decks like I like my relationships. Abusive.

I always get 1 landers.  I've given up on mulliganing on MWS, it only gets worse than whatever your 7 cards are

Yes, Uninstall that piece of crap software. Unless you want to test against idiots.

Yeah, it's just an unfortunate truth, MWS is great for really preliminary concept testing, but you really need live testing to prepare for events (if that's your ultimate goal).  If I'm correct, MWS is more or less an abandoned project at this point, there was once a team developing it, but now it's down to one or less programmers.  It's highly unlikely that there will be any major patches or updates soon.  Note that even if the shuffler was perfectly random, human shufflers are not, never mind the countless other things it's hard to test for online.
