This study introduces a novel local-lattice-distortion (LLD)-based MC framework as a computationally efficient alternative for predicting CSRO. By replacing energy-based acceptance criteria with LLD reduction as the metric for atomic swaps, our method achieves computational speeds over two orders of magnitude faster than DFT-based methods while maintaining accuracy. Validated on six representative face-centered cubic and body-centered cubic MPEAs, the framework reveals a strong correlation between LLD and CSRO. Its scalability enables applications in large-scale simulations and high-throughput studies, providing actionable insights into the LLD-CSRO relationship.
