I squelch if the opponent is getting annoying, otherwise I leave it on.

I wish that someone who is squelched would get an automatically generated message saying they've been squelched. Maybe if people saw that enough times, they would get the message that maybe they shouldn't spam emotes.

I only get a sincere well played 10% of time. By sincere i mean i defeat them and then they say well played. Most well played emotes are just before they do lethal damage which is the most arrogant thing to do. U can emote it AFTER u defeat u know?  Bunch of bozos.

Squelch good riddance. Emotes are used  75% of time to taunt the enemy. Anything that can distract me is bad. Imagine me tried to do the math on trades and Spell damaged with the mana available only to be disturbed by "Suffer as the wildlands suffer!!".

Ok that might be the best emote in the game but it still distracts me

I actually stopped auto-squelching because I usually minimize HS while it is my opponent's turn, and recently I've had to play soundlessly. If my opponent is emoting, I don't notice it unless it is specifically during my turn.

And if they are acting like assholes during my turn just because their game is won, one and a half minutes of nothingness into a concede spoils their win just fine for me.

The only time I emote is when I make an obvious misplay so I emote 'oops', otherwise I'm completely silent. I don't autosquelch, however I tend to squelch players that emote a lot. I've experienced some games where my opponent emoted 'Greetings' at the beginning and kept doing that, because I did not respond, so that's an obvious squelch too. Yep, and sometimes I squelch when I'm very low on Health and it's my opponent's turn :D

I never squelch.  I'm mature enough to not allow immature actions to trigger me.

i always give a 'greetings' at the start of the game, and a 'well played' and the end.... i will throw a 'well played' if they do a decent turn...... an occasional 'wow' if there is some major RNG either on my side or theirs.

The thing is even when you don't mean to sound sarcastic or like your being a douche it always sounds like you are (looking at you Nemsy, I can't emote without cringing with her feelsbadman) so I can understand why people just auto squelch or do it if I emote. Different stroke for different folks and all that, Im quite sociable and if I have a good game (win or loose) I will always give the opponent an add to say well played.

Only time I will squelch is if it's just constant and they are quite clearly just doing it be annoying, just no need for it!

I usually greet on the first turn then give my opponent a turn to greet back. Start of turn two, squelch every time.
