Does anyone know exactly how the screen is mirrored for your opponent? For example: does his far right site appear on my right or my left on my screen?

I don't know for sure, but I've always thought that because it is digital they are able to skew it. My guess based on play habits is that what looks like my right zone also looks like my opponent's right zone.

I always imagine that their right is my left, similar to real life card play

People seem to attack my right zone (above my agents) the most. I've always assumed that is because it is above their own agents and it's easier to drop agents there.

It does.
When i play sites rush decks; my sites always hit my left side of the screen first.
Likewise, if I play rush allies; they always try to capture right most region first.
It just makes sense. Makes it harder for my opponent to react.

I think it's important that I can predict people attacking the rightmost region the most often. Although in a higher level game I always try to vary my campaigning agent regions

It's mirrored! So if your opponent wants to play an agent fast it will appear on your left site (above his "bench") . If he wants to play a site fast (from his hand) it will probably be played on your right.
Note that I always start form right to left when attacking (sites and agents). Don't know why though...

Thanks for the replies! I also like to be able to predict where my opponent will likely play agents and sites (and to be unpredictable myself).

The card is launched when you click/release your finger. Not after it traveled to the region. So unless players want to be predictible by always casting cards on their left, it has no impact on the game. Just another noob-killer strategy. :]

Funny, Raph and (I think) Tuism agree with my take and Roebi thinks the opposite. Guess we really don't know.

Just another noob-killer strategy. :] this is what I found also, but sometimes I note people prefer aside to a region and it let's me guess how to block an official around 60-70% of the time, by placing my agent milliseconds before.

Set up a match through chat and test it. Agree to play everything on your own left.

I'm not smart enough to figure out chat yet, otherwise I'd do it myself. Figuring out chat is on my project list.
