If you have the friggin win, just friggin win. Don't hover over your cards forever, don't be a loser and dump your whole hand first, don't wait for the fuse to count down and kill at the last minute, don't make it look like you don't have lethal just to make your opponent wait and hope for another turn, then kill him last second. JUST FRIGGIN WIN FFS.
What if i must use more spells or summon minoins to complete a mision?
This.
Plus, playing cards nets you more experience. Dry your eyes and stop imagining some 14 year old sitting at his keyboard laughing at how much he just owned you.
when i have obvious lethal i assume it is the responsibility of the other guy to concede. usually i focus on something else for 10-20 seconds expecting the concede, if they dont then it's fair game imo.
I think the people who did this to you have indeed accomplished their goal.
Usually if someone is being less than great, I just try to reflect on the idea that I can draw my pleasure, humor, and fun from something other than being upsetting to others.
Sometimes when I know I'm going to lose and it was a good match I'll choose not to concede. In that situation I feel like the opponent should have the satisfaction of getting the victory in the way they choose. The exception to this is if they take FOREVER to pick a way to win, then I'll concede, I'm only so patient.
For people who are telling the OP to just concede, it is quite obvious that he is talking about a situation where it is not clear that the opponent has lethal, and the opponent purposely draws things out to give him false hope.
This is why I always have something else open, whether it's Twitch streams, Youtube, Hearthstone Forums, Reddit, whatever. This way when other people decide every turn they take needs to be the full amount of time, I just shrug and divert my attention to something else. Not wasting my time!

If it's not a clear situation where he has lethal, then I don't see the problem with him taking his time to figure it out.
By not clear I meant not clear to the person who is going to lose. It would be perfectly clear to the person with lethal. For example, say it is turn 10 and a mage with a Fireball in hand is facing an opponent with 6 health. It is the mage's turn. The mage has 1 health and has no minions on board; the opponent has enough minions to kill her the next turn. Instead of just killing the opponent immediately, the mage takes her time to summon minions, use her hero power on the opponent's minions, etc in an attempt to make the opponent think she has no lethal and that he is going to win. That's the kind of situation the OP is talking about.
Too many chumps playing this game, dinking around on their last turn, hatching eggs, sending pointless emotes and just wasting your time. Lame. If you have lethal on the board, swing for the face right away or I will be conceding to get on to the next match while you sit there fondling yourself thinking of all the cards you can play....for no fucking reason.

and don't emote "sorry" and "thank you" for every card you play, yes i'm talking to you every 1 out of 5 Priests!!
If i met respectable opponent who do not BM me during the game, i'm always finish as fast as i can. Sadly these "respectable opponents" are very rare.
I bring life and pffffffffffffff!

Unbowed. Unbent. Unbroken.
i'm ok with people playing all their cards, so i get to see what people are playing in their deck.
i'm ok with people emoting "sorry" when top decking to answers, it is RNG and we all get to top deck.
i'm ok with priests emoting "thank you" when they steal ur card or minions, because they have the gayest voice acting.
i only hate the rope burners....
If you know that you have lost then you can always just concede, if those few seconds are so important to you.
Priest mind controls/cabal shadow priest one of your powerful minions and says "Thank you" in a polite tone.

And I also look at pictures of kittens!

Is this Nike viral marketing?
+2, seriously, you can do whatever you want, just don't burn the rope on purpose, that's super annoying and a waste of time.
Dumping your hand is good. I might want to know what you have and you might be getting progress toward a daily. What's wrong with it?

If they have Lethal on board I will let them play their turn, but if they start using cards in hands I concede right away.
If you Hex a Murloc... it really isn't much of a change, is it?
