I don't think this is quantifiable without input from the community.
Move played matches where I barely spend 30 seconds on my turn, while others have seen me working turns out until the end of the rope 7-10 turns in a row.
Other times, I've faced people who only started roping once they were in a losing position, where before they were timely in their turns and playing decks that don't usually require a lot of time to work plays out.
It's a case-by-case thing, but it is a real thing people do intentionally from time to time.
Time to time huh 👌 if u say So I gonna ROPE every one Because it only happens Time to time. You’re so full shit I can smell coming out of ur mouth.
I'm not sure if it's a translation thing or what, but I can't understand what you're saying beyond saying I smell bad. Are you going to rope everyone? Are you saying I rope people? Do you think I condone it because I used the phrase "from time to time"?
I'll try and answer you here: I don't condone intentional roping to grief opponents, but my point was that seeing the rope doesn't immediately mean that's what's happening. There are plenty of reasons that are normal and acceptable.

A little green/red dot next to ID name to show if the user is actually on line or off line ti will helps at least if is disconnected or just an asshole.
It will also help in few cases not to lose due of dc (sounds unbelieveble but when i see roping i actually wait all time possible my next turns to wait a possible dc player come back)
Hardcore solution: see the ropes 5 times = authomatic loss. (not counting nozdormu ones)
I'd assume it happens so frequently in casual because the players are likely doing other things while they play (watching a movie, hanging with friends, browsing forums etc).
The one time I got intentionally roped recently, it was in Bronze ranked wild and the player would’ve won anyway because I was messing around. A totally pointless tactic.
DH players must be ropeded every single turn including the mulligan.
Sometimes they have bad draw and you get the upper hand and can win fair and square. In these games it´s easy to get exited and forget to rope. No, No! It’s very important to keep roping in these situations!
Only by consistent and widespread roping can we stop these people from ruining the game.
I've encountered a couple of bots in Wild. Warriors that rope their turns and and use their hero power to add four armor to drag things out. I even encountered one of them twice. Same modus operandi. I assume that every now and then someone quits due to frustration and the player behind the bots benefits. I remembered to report one of them.

Dependable loan sharks since 1960. We sink our teeth into every deal we make.
I guess that means that roping is not a new thing people just decided to start doing because of the new system!
People have been morons for way longer! Great news!
I think roping now has become something that's no longer exclusively in the realms of either "serious consideration" or "mean dumpster person."
Blizzard has given players incentive to taking longer turns to maximize their XP. I'm adjusting to it, and getting used to figuring out who is BMing and who is just trying to get XP since we're no longer awarded for wins in cumulative gold. I personally don't feel the need to rope, but I am taking an extra few seconds every round just for the XP before I end my turn.

I only rope under 1 condition. If a my opponent has obviously abused his allotted time for several turns at my expense I will rope him every turn win or lose. Respect is a 2 way street. One or two turns can be forgiven, more than that is purposeful.
But there's no time abusing attention whores in Battlegrounds and so I now mostly play that.
I wonder if there isn't a behind the scenes algorithm from the game that low-key punishes ropers with unfavorable matchups, terrible draw, etc.
I've faced hard matchups that I should truly not have won, but the opponent was an every-turn roper and seemed to get the worst cards at the worst times.
Maybe I'm looking too much in to it, or maybe it's just wishful thinking.
Never played Armor Boring Warrior... but with this new system i can rope every turn untill reach 60minutes a match against another sicko doing the same...even more in wild rsrs. Thanks HS! You really changed your game at all, best of the best devs in the world rs

This is so childish. I don't enjoy playing demon hunter myself and I don't enjoy playing against it but other people do and if I want to share space with other people then I have to accept that what I like isn't "right". Some people have a lot of fun with the archetype and class, they are enjoying the game. Roping them simply because you've built an internal prejudice against an entire group of people based on nothing except your personal feelings is just a really, really shitty way to be.
It's people like you that contribute to what feels like such an intolerable, petty, selfish society at the moment. When I play a control deck, maybe the opponent feels exactly how you do but about me. Everyone will have different tastes and likes, this is stuff you should have learned when you were 3/4 years old.
So either you grow up and stop being such an ignorant jackass or you're just going to continue the cycle of people being shitty to each other because they don't comply with your view on subjective things.

This! I really hate roping, but pathetic DHuntards deserve to get roped every single turn :)

Control is like Chess - using your given resources wisely.
Aggro is like Russian Roulette - Hope to topdeck the right card/ hope for the opponent to topdeck the wrong card.
Parallels to the IQ of the players of both games are, of course, coincidental ;)

Just played against Norrell on the EU. Roped every turn, from turn 1 until turn 9 ... where I won the game.
Literally waited until 1-2 seconds before the timer ... every turn. What a twat

I just minimize HS if they rope throw on twitch or some sports highlights, not suprised at any roping strategies at this point,
Usually, they calm very fast if you counter-rope them
