Dicerolls and Dicerapes
I noticed lately that it seems to happen that either me or my opponent has total bad luck.
Not like once or twice a game but throughout the entire game. Even though I like when I win (honestly who doesn't) it just doesn't feel deserved.
Also I am trying out different races to see which team I will go with for the TT league. But if I fail all the 2+ rolls with elfs it doesn't feel right at all. Maybe I should go and play lottery ;)
But I think you know what I am talking of.
Maybe the new client will have a better implementation of randomness.

Well you should fail 1/6 dodges. Maybe you dodge too much with your elves then ;) (have not looked at your games)
And come back and make a post worth reading when you have a statistical argument for it. Oh and remember to have a large sample, else you can use it for anything.
Edit: Your late 9 games has been with skaven on fumbbl as of this post
And lately, is that 5games? 10games? 15games?
So where is the connection between elves and skaven? :)

Like I played this game, and like I rolled a 1, and then I like rolled another 1 and I was like "this is soo unfair", and my opponent was like "aw, poor you", and I was like "hey, I'll quit", and he was like "yeah, go on then", and so I went "I will you know!" and then he went "bet you don't" and so I went like "bet I do", and it was so unfair, ya know.

It's less a problem with the randomness of the game (it has been discussed to death, and the randomness is just fine), and more with your perception of those games.
I know the feeling, that a lot of your games come down to luck, even the ones you win. If I look back at some of my game comments a lot of them used to be about "I had bad luck so I lost" or "I had good luck so I won". But more often than not if you look back you'll find it's more a matter of how you were prepared for that good/bad luck, and how you respond to it when it happens, than how much luck you actually have.
Also, whenever you win it's easier to feel lucky even though you may not have been more lucky than usual, just because the results seem to back up your feeling about the game. The same goes with losing and bad luck.
