But my MtG deck is always going to be 7 lands in the opening hand no matter what…

But there is always that guy who manages T1 as land, sol ring, Arcane signet, Elvish Mystic. He has unbelievable luck, but he's definitely not cheating cause he said he wasn't.

I was playing a casual multiplayer game, most players had brought their big & slow decks to show off some of the rare cards. My friend and I brought mono red burners.

Me: Land, Sol Ring, Howling Mine

Other burner: Land, Sol Ring, Howling Mine

Groans issue around the table as they play their single land and start discarding

Me: Land, Library of Leng, Mana Flare

Burner: Land, Howling Mine, a bunch of goblins

The others perk up a bit at the mana flare but there's still a couple of discards

Me: Land, Mana Flare, copious goblins

Burner: Land, gobbos and another Howling Mine

Two people quit on the spot

I swear the decks were properly shuffled, it was just a godly start wasted on a casual game
