I used to against priest when they were popular they are just annoying to play against and the games drags forever i think it was reasonable since i don't care about ranks and value my game time.
I've been enjoying a lot more auto concedes to concedes after turn 1-2 with my new Mech Hunter deck. Everyone just assumes it is standard SMOrc Hunter. It actually took a few games before I even got to test it fully without the opponent conceding. I know when a few of my decks are going to get drawn into long unwindable games but I still play them all out unless it is truly hopeless and usually that is by turn 8-10+
The only other option sometimes is to be the asshole also. Next thing you people will do is defend something dumb like pirate warrior. When 1 deck ruins the game play experience for many other decks, that's not worth supporting with my time.
If the deck isn't fun to play against and I don't want to waste 10 minutes doing something dumb, I don't have to.
During casual games, I have done this sometimes against Priests. The reason being the games usually take a long time. It's just a big time investment and when you know it's a Raza deck, I ask myself, "Why bother?"
However, recently, I have been sucking it up and playing all decks again. My win rate against Priests has been closer to 50% for the first time in a while. (I usually play Paladin.)
Not sure if that means I've gotten better or I'm just running into less talented opponents, but I'll take it.
I concede versus Keleseth Rogue when they get Prince + Shadowstep on turn 1 or 2. At that point my Control Hunter (who I've been climbing this month with) winrate against them is incredibly low, and they're no fun at all to play against, so I have no reason to stay in the game. It's literally a better move in terms of climbing the ladder efficiently to concede then and there. There was a season after Naxx but before GvG when I decided to not play ladder past 20 and just have fun on casual, and I'd insta-conceed versus any Hunter I'd meet. There's no point in my playing against those decks when they're not enjoyable in the slightest, I lose nothing from conceeding, and they gain 3.3333 gold from it.

This is pretty much the only case where I will. I also rage-concede early on turn 1-3 when I'm drunk and get a bad draw or they topdeck the perfect answer to whatI just played, but I admit that is stupid because usually there was still hope.
I never auto-concede, because even if your opponent's deck is very highly favored against yours, you don't know how the cards will play out. I've played games that looked like a total loss for me, only for the opponent to suddenly misplay, or miss lethal, or get DCed.
But kudos to everyone who does this. Please keep doing it. This makes grinding my daily quests much more efficient.
Auto conceding is one of the dumbest things you can do..
Why would you make a 70-30 matchup into a 100-0? What would that help
If you play for fun and not put winning over everything else, I could understand why one would do that.
I used to concede vs. Pirate Warrior (back when HS was flooded by that deck), simply because playing against it took away every last grain of fun I could have with this game - because even if I won those games, I'd still be annoyed. xD
I can auto-concede against aggro/tempo decks if my mulligan sucks so much balls that I know I will lose whatever I do.
There are also a few matchups you know you can only lose as soon as turn 1 or 2 when you play a deck that can't regain board control. Like any Hunter deck vs a mage who play Mana Wyrm on turn 1.
I've learned never to auto-concede if you're not about to die. Sometimes even then.
You never know what is likely to happen in a game and how it will play out. I've managed to scrape victory even against Turn 1 Shadow-Stepping Prince Rogues (which is the most salt-generating thing to see in Hearthstone ever) just by a mix of pure luck and outvaluing him with trades and tempo.
On more than one occasion, I have even seen my opponent miss lethal completely (sometmies just to BM me) and then get rekt because I have the lethal combo for my turn. That's always really satisfying!
whenever prince gets dropped on turn 2 a little part of me want's to concede, if its rogue and they shadow step it, i usually hover over the concede button but because i'm a masochist I usually gut it out until the bitter end.... don't get me wrong sometimes they draw poorly and you can scrape a win, and once in a blue moon you get a DC but more often than not its like 5 minutes of torture
Instant conceding against certain classes? That's pathetic. That's like playing chess and then throwing the board off the table and onto the floor when it doesn't go your way.
Although I must admit the man-tantrums in this thread have given me some laughs.

Only to get back to 20

Never concede.

no, its fucking rude, imagine doing that in any other card game like Magic or Yu gi oh.
If I see that Mage quest icon go off, I'm gone. (I play control decks mainly.)

I would not do this on the ladder, ever.

Bad players whine.
Good players adapt.
Occasionally auto-conceded to quest rogue at ist worst but usually, no.

Wow, some wild thread necromancy going on here. Look at the beginning of the thread, people complain about Patron OTK.
