I know there is a 'salty' bad beat' post....but this one is just for BM'ers. Why do it ?!?!?! If you're gonna win the game....."JUST DO IT"........don't play every card in your hand first. And use the Emotes appropriately !!!! When I know I'm gonna lose, I let the player play out his hand......maybe to see if his deck works......MAYBE.......he/she makes a mistake :P
But come on ya'll (I just spent a month in the DEEP south USA recently).....let's chill on the BM'ing..................
BTW..........I like the Emotes. Blizz needs to add more. Just wish peeps would use then in an appropriate way.
also i think behaviour/customs differ from country to country and region to region.
Recently started F2P on the asia server. Noticed that a lot of players there like to press the "threathen" button, just before they plunge their golden alexstraza into the face of my level 1 mage......
The only thing that gives me the piss is when people run the clock every turn, i assume trying to get an easy win by annoying the opponent to concede.
You would be wrong. Lots of people have sub-par net connection, play from phone or just get distracted during the game. Some people just think. But sure find a way to get upset :)
Nah,fuck that, no one ropethinks every single turn on every single card,had a fucker rope starting from t1 and he was just 'playing' with his cards hovering over them like a retard click-release every card before playing it like 3 times ,played a YT video and roped back ,he started emote spamming,needles to say a BM lethal was coming his way.
And before you white knights start having some empathy for the little fuck he was not a noob that was just reading the text,you don't do that when you just read.

This!
A lot of my play happens from work on my phone where the connection isn't so good or at home where I'm doing other stuff at the same time. People always assume that other people are out to get them, but they never look at any other perspective. It is a childish way to go through life.
I played a guy with a name like "Ilettheropeburn" the other day. Of course, roped out every damn turn. I felt compelled to do the same to him, and the game took FOREVER. I don't really get why people do it, it's a huge waste of time. Might get someone to rage quit like 1/10 games, but when youre taking 2-3 time as long per game...you're not gaining anything at all.
That said, I wish blizz would implement some detection and punishment (shorter clock) for habitual time wasters.
But it's so satisfying to be BM'd by your opponent and then turn around and win. Or to be BM'd, then make a play that they can't possible come back from, and watch them concede. I live for those moments.

I think that is so true !!!!!!!!!!! I just spent a month in the deep south (USA) and people were SO FRIENDLY I thought I was getting set up for something...............

This is why you squelch the opponent the second time they emote in any given match. The only thing you can do about ropers unfortunately is to rope them back. Most of the time when you rope a roper they stop as they realize it could take hours to finish a match with both players being idiots.

What he's doing isn't illegal, it's just unsportsmanlike. By punishing people who rope or shorten the turn duration, you're also punishing people who legitimately use that time.

Why do you even care? It's just a game.
If someone who likes to BM comes here and reads this, do you think it's really going to change their minds?
There's no point in asking why. Accept that it exists and move on.
Spamming emotes? Squelch.
Roping every turn? Alt + Tab and do something else.
BM is a game played by the weak. BM doesn't affect the strong. Be strong.

I do the same, don't give your opponent the taste of forcing you to concede.
[EDIT]: Also, silencing (I don't remember the right word) makes their BMing much harder.

Because some people don't win often and then feel the need to use that moment to feel good about themselves. It's really pathetic.

I squelch everyone anyway. People do tend to do big combo's when they have lethal on board.
Great art can never be created without great suffering.

The 1st step towards a better game is firing Mike Donais! We had enough of his "skillful" balances!

What does "BM" stand for?
