Fan says Slay the Spire 2 has correlated RNG that skews outcomes

A dedicated Slay the Spire 2 fan, mathematician Tckmn, streamed and explained in some 6,600 words how he accidentally discovered correlated RNG in Mega Crit's roguelike deckbuilder. His core claim is that certain events influence and reveal the outcomes of other events: "Knowing the first output of one of the game's RNGs gives information that helps predict the first output of all of the others." That links to the game's seed system: each seed delivers a predetermined series of encounters, but you still make branching choices within it.

Tckmn argues there is almost a sub-seed that quietly creates runs where, for example, Outcome A in Event 1 makes Outcome A highly likely in Event 2 even when outcomes appear equally likely. He gives concrete examples with Neow relics and capsules. Neow's Bones allegedly has a 54% chance of giving the Debt curse in the Underdocks map and 0% in Overgrowth, while Overgrowth favours the Writhe curse at 73%.
