Usually when I get an add request I'll try and type out some rude comment and remove them faster than they can, but the last couple times I did this it ended up being someone being nice and it made me look/feel like a moron.

Anyway, I only personally get upset when a game swings against me after being ahead the whole game just because of one card (i'm looking at you, Ultimate Infestation).  The satisfaction when they don't check for counterspell before casting it almost makes up for it, but not quite.

I only get mad when you bring meta ladder decks to casual "because you can" and "I'm just testing it" and "relax bro its just a game."

 No offense but "Relax bro it's just a game."

 No.  Play ladder decks on ladder.  Keep casual cancer free, the way it should be. 

You're going to get people getting angry and complain about anything you play, regardless of which mode you're in. 

I see a lot of players complain about ladder decks in casual, but I also get enough BM adds in casual when I beat somebody with a random OTK deck I enjoy playing, or they go aggro with BM emoting until I beat them. 

Nobody should let others determine what they play, how they play it, or where they play because in the end somebody is going to complain about what you're playing regardless.

 That doesn't mean you should play ladder decks in casual.  

Why ? I think you are being ridiculous. You play to win. Even If you play a meme deck you still want to win with it. Otherwise it’s pointless. So why accuse people play anything for win?

Maybe people are upset about losing, because they take the game too seriously.

As for me I stopped being tilted and angry all the time when I decided to quit competitive hearthstone. Now I only play homebrews... at rank 20.

Sorry for the off-topic, but:
Your picture is not Pinkie Pie.
I am both ashamed to know this and confused as to why this bothers me... LOL!

Lately, I was playing against handlock in casual. He had all the greed possible: double mountains, double shambler, double drakes, lich king, demon package for guldan and even 3 mana demon that he managed to place on my board. It seemed like the guy didnt care for what your opponent might have in deck. He just put all the greed from his collection possible yet managed to win thanks to perfect hand I guess. At the end he said "I greeet you" 2 times and threw soulfire to my face. 

I was fucking mad. Why? I just lost to a VERY VERY BAD DECK which my opponent prolly didnt know about and decided to BM like a total moron thinking he constructed sth playable. 

1 thing i hate even more than losing to top tier 1 decks. Losing to bad deck. Not some meme deck. A bad deck that some1 thinks is good and then spamming emotes being happy like its your birthday. Feels bad.

 IMO, Casual is/should be like like an after work pickup game of <whateverthefuck sport you want>.  Just screwing around, mostly having fun, sure trying to win but it's not a huge deal - you're all not that great but it's fun to try.  Then one day, a couple younger guys drop in.  That's cool, this is just for fun.  Then you find out they both played at top tier colleges, starting line in fact.  And they totally crush everyone.  "Relax bro, it's just for fun right?" they reply.  But that's not the fucking point. This is your for fun after work pickup game, not top tier highly competitive college mode. 

That's the problem. 

 Then maybe you can play with friends for fun. I know it could be frustrating playing meme deck against top tier deck. But that’s the case only if you play to win. And your point is to have fun with your deck. I am not sure why not you can’t have fun with it all of a sudden. You still play your fun deck right? And IMO it’s more fun because you face actual competitive decks, if you win you prove more. If you lose, you got your lesson and know how you improve your deck. I think this is actually very nice experience.

I don't mind losing.  What I don't like is people who use OP decks and broken cards to get ahead.  I've watched this game become void of skill over the last few months.  Jade Druids, Raza Priest, and now Bonemare Hunter.  I do not understand how someone wants to play this game without challenging themselves.

But I've got good news for you, since it's only casual and the results are meaningless.  You can just insta-concede if you don't like the deck you're playing against.  Problem solved.  At the end of the day casual mode simply means, unranked.  It doesn't mean, "play only the decks that Kaladin thinks should be allowed."

I really hate this argument of people trying to dictate how other people should play the game and define what casual is meant to be.  You're basically saying, "casual is where people should play only bad decks."  Well, who are you to tell others what to play and how?  Everyone is going to have a completely different opinion on what decks they want to play against.  Some people even go as far as to say aggro decks shouldn't be allowed in casual.  There isn't any way to force people to play only the decks you want, because everyone has a different viewpoint on what decks are "cancer" and what decks aren't.

 So... you're fine losing only to "medium" decks, averaging around 50% WR? Like, bottom of tier 2 / top of tier 3?

Afraid that's a quite narrow requirement ;)

 Man, I was just joking, trying to relax the atmosphere a bit ^^

And if by BBC you mean the British television, I'd be happy to work for them! Do you know if they're hiring?

I think it has something to do with getting NOTHING for losing. Now I don’t think we should get everything handed to us, but after a long and close game you get zero out of it. I believe that’s what creates the salt.

It's a head to head competition, literally the most competitive scenario possible. I play a lot of tennis, the salt in that environment is no different. Some players can't cope very well with losing a one on one, no hiding place.

I havent read the other posts on this thread but myself get angry if I lose in arena. Ranked doesnt really matter, im still waiting for that sweet innovative deck thats competitive and I just go there to try if ill succeed but mostly im just hanging between ranks 15-10.

But yeah arena. Im f2p so I wanna manage my gold. I dont know what my average is cause sometimes I make my deck using heartharena but I play the games on mobile so it wont record them. Its prob like 5+. I just hate the feeling of losing to rng especially when you finally drafted that sick deck with lich king and death knight (just saying glad they will get removed so no one will start picking on me haha) and then you go 3/3 cause of some crazy rng or just plain even BETTER decks. Its like someone is controlling the matchmaking. And a big salt to me is losing to a bad player that has good rng. I just lost a game to a guy whos first trade was with a 1/1 and a 2/1 to my 3/2.

But then again propably my most cancerous game I have ever played was againts a druid at 7/2 with 10 SPREADING PLAGUES. Yes I had theboard all the time so it was value over value. And just when he ran out, I didnt have any board so I lost. And I had lethal every turn.

Thank you for reading this poem lol
