I faced deathrattle rogue and two mechathun warlocks at rank 3 yesterday. All In a row too. I lost to the deathrattle rouge and once to the mechathun warlock. I had no idea what he was doing the first game until it was too late and of course mulligan for aggro.
Depends on the deck and the player, I'd say. I'd hate losing to a jade druid even if it were non-meta, or to a deck with Illuminator -I irrationally hate that card, don't judge me-
Meawhile I really dislike actual control warrior, boom warrior and some other top meta decks like big priest.
I don't care if I loose to a meta or non meta deck. I feel it more tilting that a player makes several mistakes, and then win on a series of topdecks, total RNG fiesta (not just 1 or 2 RGN but a lot).
Where did you see non-meta decks? Only non-meta decks I see are my own ones, others play the same crap over and over, do not even need to guess what deck my opponent plays once I see his hero portrait.
I lost today to a Rogue that happened to get a Colossus of the Moon from Pharaoh Cat and Ancestral Healing from Clever Disguise. I had turned the tide of the match up to my favor and then he got this combo from RNG and it led to him winning. Very frustrating when something like this happens. Especially when I was late into the match and hadn't drawn my Hex yet and my discover spells battlecries did not provide me Hex.
It's easier to lose to a good off meta deck because they have an advantage of knowing what you're playing while you the opponent are guessing and potentially missplaying thinking it's a meta deck opponent.
It's all a matter of perception and overestimation of the importance of tier lists.
If you perceive all off-meta decks as "bad," you are setting yourself up for a lot of disappointing surprises.
When the meta is diverse and reasonably balanced, as it is right now, the actual difference in power level between, say, a tier 2 deck and an off-meta deck may be very slim, especially when the off-meta deck is piloted by a highly skilled player. If you assume the raw power difference is a lot bigger than it actually is, you will naturally become frustrated when the off-meta deck beats you.
It isn't. It's more aggravating to lose to netdeckers who won because they got downloaded somebody else's deck and got lucky. The best games of hearthstone are the ones where both players made their own decks and play well.
Why oh why
If I have to lose to anything, I'd love for it to be a home-brewn/off-meta deck. No idea what you're talking about.

Most of all i hate losing against warrior. If i lose against a home made deck i friend them.

ego-problem imo, maybe it feels like you lost to a little child, metaphorically
other than that just be fucking happy you don't have to fight the same bullshit over and over for once in a while, jeez man

because those decks are bad, with maybe a 30% WR... no one want to be in that 30% lmao

Explain this word "tilting" to us who aren't 14. I am going to assume that you don't mean tilting as in physically leaning to one side.

I love playing against homebrews. Sometimes I even concede when I'm winning, if I really like a deck.
