Wow... This post is almost exactly one year old and the BS hand smoothing problem persists... I just lost a match because the BS smoothing algorithm decided that giving three copies of Invoke Despair instead the fifth land I needed to play them was the better option.
My oponnent was literally on deaths door. All I needed was ONE LAND, but I just kept drawing every other card in my deck despite having a 45% chance to draw a basic swamp...
I don't understand this garbage mechanic and sincerely wish they'd remove it already. Or, like the OP suggests, give us the option of turning it off for BO1, because seriously... Loosing a match because of not drawing a single basic land is outrageous!
