I wonder how many of you have and how often you have encountered this kind of player. In the last case, the guy was playing the deck in a way that screamed Mecha'thun against my mech hunter. I have seen so many players making moves mimicking, in the end, their final "combo" and then end up losing or concede because they had shit.  I have encountered these "Bluffers" so regularly that I wonder if it's a trend. Anyway that's why I always play till the end no matter what. 

Rogues spaming "Well Played" with one card in hand and you with only 6 life is a classic too.

Until Leeroy be played no chance for concede.

Couple of times I won games with just pointed on my opponent's face spell that targets only minions, lol. I guess it was tilt that led them to concede

Not sure who I hate the most. Bluffers, or those who concede against them?

I do something like this, if i'm playing against an unusually annoying opponent, emotes every two seconds, playing rogue and being a lucky piece of shit, etc, i usually stall a bit on me killing them juuuuuuuust until the rope starts to burn, then i kill them, just because i know these kinds of people deserve.

I've played leeroy on a few of occasions representing lethal with a shadowstep without having one, instead targeting him with a backstab and my opponents conceded. I've done similar things with a variety of classes, and even if it works 1 out of 100 times, why not try it? What's wrong with playing to your outs, even if it looks pretty dumb and rarely works? I wont push it to the rope, but ill let my opponent sweat for a few seconds before conceding. Snap tilt concedes definitely happen- I should know, ive done them myself. 

Only time I can remember bluffing and winning was when un’goro came out and I was playing silence priest. Well I didn’t have a silence for my humongous razorleaf (so it couldn’t attack) but I decided to start buffing it up anyways. As soon as my opponent saw it was a 32/32 he conceded. Crazy how people forget/ don’t know what cards can and can’t do!

I refuse to concede because of this.

Use jedi mindtricks on them. But karma comes back around.... 

It's smart as hades and something I really should be doing more often honestly.  I don't, but I should and commend those that have won games this way.

 Harness that hatred. Let it become you. This is where true power comes from. Loving to hate..... mmmmyissss

What about them? It's a last resort tactic that actually works sometimes

Personally I find bluffers to be evident of a higher skilled player, at least in theory, because they are aware of how mind games can actually influence the course of a game, which I find is something that is subtle yet crucial for the game.

Interestingly enough, you have to be semi-aware of how these mind games work to allow yourself to become victim of them (such as those players who concede to a supposed Leeroy of Fireball in hand without seeing them actually played).

This is the side effect of people conceding rather than letting their opponent get that final hit for lethal. You can bluff and it works. Pride is wonderful in that way. I've bluffed with shit in my hand and the opponent always concedes.

Emoting 'well played' is a win condition.

Hey i bluffed my opponent succesfully on a few occasions... Not all of them resulted in concede, but some of the resulted in very suboptimal plays where i was dead but my opponent wouldn't realize it because he doesn't know my hand and would suicide himself into explosive trap or something...

In most recent one i bluffed that i burned last bomb with tracking while i just lucked out for it to be bottom of the deck and wasn't lucky enough to burn it. But my opponent thought that i burned it and just suicided himself... (Part of it was him not knowing interactions, because it seemed like he thought he woukd force a tie while it wasn't th case, but he didn't even need to try and force tie because if he did nothing and passed i would be 100% dead because i would just get 6 to face and i was below 6...)

Have done it myself a few times. Pointing a Frostbolt at my opponents face when they are on 6 health, making them believe its a Fireball, that sort of thing.

 Hovering over a Minion as Paladin making my opponent think it's a Blessing of Kings has worked before as well. Only once though. 🤔 

I actually wish bluffing was more important in this game.

Bluffing adds more depth and makes things more interesting. And it's not just about triggering a concede.

As for me, my typical bluff is hiding Open the Waygate for as long as possible, and fake playing a slow Control Mage.

And if i am hard pressured (dead next turn), casting Time Warp + 'well played' without lethal in hand (but sometimes you actually draw lethal in the Extra Turns).

Whoever concedes to these bluffs deserve the loss, cause it is an impatient who let the tilt get to him. Bluff however you like, im gonna call it and either you had it all along or you didnt, but im not gonna concede cause you might have it lul, thats just stupid.

 THat is true... I don't concede unless my opponent has lethal on board and started going face... well ok I did couple of shame concedes too but that is different... But that is why my bluffs sometimes go next level and targeted at opponent throwing the game rather than conceding, happened to do that a few times...

never concede lol
