    Shadowverse has such a card. It was a neutral card that banishes annoying minions so their deathrattles dont trigger. When i left the game there was only one such card. There should be more now.

    Your tone and diction hints of anger, not confusion, despite how you deny it in an attempt to show some degree of resistance. It's meaningless, you are angry and your essay proves it. I'm just gonna say that I understand that anger and it's reasonable. Feels like you can't enjoy hearthstone without meeting toxic people. That much is true. Just note that majority of the hs player base behave like nasty teenagers and there's no real way to change that. Also note that the dude didn't meant what he said obviously, and he's venting because reasons: boredom, saltiness, frustration, whatever, idk and idc. He doesn't mean it, he's just nasty because it's easy to be online. No consequences. No responsibilities. No accountability. So you are just gonna have to detach yourself a little and not be so emotionally affected by words from strangers. You can try wild too. I personally find that wild mode has more pleasant people than standard. Or you can quit. Don't think you should let toxic strangers affect you so much though, to the point that you'd quit.

    You are probably normal. You just probably hate how the aggro games end too fast while feeling like there was nothing you could do.

    @DiamondDM13 

    Ok,I'm gonna have to agree with you there and stop here since it is indeed diverting from the orignal thread. Just wanna say that I think I get what you mean and that since these 'issues' you speak of are so simple, perhaps they arent really issues at all, so getting professionnal help really seems unnecessary and overkill. The term 'disorder' and the formal language already gave me the impression that you are referring to something serious, which is unbeffiting of common behavior in a card game. As for the severity of mental stigma, sadly as of now, it is here to stay and there is no easy way of changing majority of society's perception.

    As for your interpretation of BMing being a result of personality perturbations and even disorders, this is exactly the kind of delusional lie that I was talking about. There's no need to 'look deep down into this' because it never was such a serious matter. BMing doesn't always have to do with disturbances in their mental state or problems in real life. Hell, it rarely does. The asshole is bored so he BMs on a whim. The feel of victory is awesome so he BMs. He is salty and so he vents and BM. That's it. It's on a whim. It doesn't have to do with disorders or problems or whatnot. That is blowing matters out of proportion to feel better. There is no need to feel sorry for the BMer. He probably has no issues. He doesnt have to live life problems or mental disorders. He isn't in a sorry state that you can look down on him from above and feel better then tell yourself 'he is pitiful'. He's probably an average dude acting on the mean streak that everyone has. It's just easier to be nasty with online anonymity. That's it. Delusions. Self consolation. Exaggeration. Fixing some wounded pride by mentally lowering the dude who you let wound you. 
     My interpretation comes from simple aspects that you see being involved in both Psychiatry and Psychology... You can look at it however you want, but I would advise you to study this subject a little before passing judgement (You are not required to, but it would do you good to be more aware.).
    I didn't say it was a serious matter nor that you needed to look deep into it, I do that because I'm "trained" that way, to identify patterns, to relate behaviours, so on.
    And yes, I said that aswell, it doesn't always have to do with that, I pointed that out.
    The rest of the message is you reiterationg the same thing I already explained above, but seems I hit too close to home so you feel the need to enforce the opinion you have again. You don't have to defend yourself for your behaviour. I will feel sorry for my opponent if the levels he expresses are extreme because that is easy to see the scale he is at, from a general point.
    I was going to start a long wall of text explaining a good chunk of stuff in detail, but I actually feel like it is pointless, if you were interested in knowing what I'm talking about, you could do something as simple as talk to a professional on the subject, that is, if you don't want to go and study the subject yourself. The way you reacted tells me that is not your interest, your interest is to ease your mind because you possibly also fall into this subject and don't want to be associated with the issues I posted above, so you need to take this stance to help you believe there is nothing wrong with you, not even the smallest disorder. And with that in mind, it is fine, if that is what brings you peace, good for you.
    The biggest issue in society is how stigmatized everything around mental health has always been and how shameful people feel to seek help, even though they shouldn't, most times it's nothing big.
     Dude, I really really think that you are reading too much into this. And no, I dont BM. I dont indulge in asshole behavior, even if it is in retaliation. If I see someone BMing, I sqelch. If anything, I dont like BMers because their presence makes a lot of people reject my friend requests since most expect nonsensical flaming. So no, no sensitivity issues here. You got to the wrong conclusion(but I can logically trace back to your assumptions). Getting the wrong conclusion here already shows that however legitimate your experience in psychiatry may be(assuming it exists, forgive my doubts, this is the internet after all), your judegment is wrong in my case. And I'm pretty sure it is wrong in the case of BMers. Because a large portion of the player base consists of teenagers and young adults. You the know the saying 'boys will be boys'? I'm thinking along those lines. I have teenage friends who BM in hs. They are not mental and they dont have a disorder. And they are not bad people. They are ordinary teenagers who act on their emotions at that point of time. And they do so without guilt or regret or malice because it isnt that big of a deal to them. It shouldn't be that big of a deal to you either. They are merely pre-progammed words on a screen. Please dont tell me that it is a proffessionally accurate diagnosis of someone's mental state. Also, I never felt attacked by your judgement on BMers, simply because I didnt classify myself in that group. But I feel attacked now since someone who I have never met just accused me of being mental based on 2 written paragraphs that opposed his view. Can you see where my doubts of your proffesionalism originate from? I hope that you are reasonable enough to not blindly perceive this a threat to your credibility as well as seriously consider what I am saying rather than just assigning me an illness and coming to your own conclusions.

    While slightly unrelated, I always see people making themselves feel better after they got bmed by telling themselves the asshole is a sad, pitiful person or that it is the only thing they got going for them. This is just self consolation as well as self delusion. The asshole is probably just bored or bming makes him feel good as he topdecks a win or both. He ain't pitiful and he sure as hell ain't some degenerate that you can compare yourself to and tell yourself that you are superior. I have someone in my friendlist who used to play hs and he was pretty decent at it. Only issue was he bmed all the way in every game no matter the board state. And he won majority of his matches because the opponent became unnerved. I didn't like how he did it, but he wasn't a bad player. So skill level has nothing to do with it. And easily getting unnerved by someone's emotes is the only reason why people nonsensically lie to themselves about how their opponent is a loser in real life or that squelch somehow pisses off the bmer. Just to make themselves feel better. Kinda like how most bmers bm to make themselves feel good in the first place. Some kind of ego masturbation.

     Why would you need to make yourself feel better because of a BMer? If you go deep down into this, when you look at it, you will notice people who have a need to BM, specially those in need of excessive constant expression and emoting, that usually comes from even the smallest perturbation in their personality, even small scale disorders. So I don't know why one needs to feel better about themselves, what happens to me is that I feel sorry for my opponent. It has no effect on me nor does it change me. But it does make me feel bad for my opponent that he has to deal or live with the problem he has. It is actually rare that you find players doing excessive amounts of BMing without actually having anything that is disturbing them.
    By how you described that person in your friends list, it is likely he also suffered some problem.
    And it doesn't have anything to do with the opponent being a loser in real life, that is a fabrication that people like to construct to label others while also trying not to get labelled themselves.
    All of this aside, sometimes it can be mildly annoying when the opponent enjoys BMing and is oblivious to the events that lead to the game conclusion, many times the mistakes they made, but some people don't want to be told they are wrong, not everyone strives to constantly improve themselves.
     Dont ask me why one needs to make themselves feel better because of a BMer. I dont do it. Ask some of the people above who do it. Why do they need to delude themselves with nonsensical lies that debases the asshole that threatens their ego? Probably to regain some security and defuse unpleasant emotions, I'd bet. I wouldn't know, ask someone above who does.

    Just played what felt like the longest match I ever had and no, it was not some fun control match. The dude was roping all the way. What the heck man, just play the game normally. And the moment I played a card that showed that I was playing secret mage, he stopped roping. Guess he hates exodia mage with a passion and is trying to rope every mage out there. I already knew that a large portion of the hs community is toxic but having constant reminders really suck.

     i just love how quest mage rekt all stupid homebrew control deck . no matter how much legendary you put into , no matter how much value you had , no matter how much armor you can stockpiled . you will be killed  .  A full board and hand of legendary will have to knee beneth some stupid oracle , one old man and four little girl =)
    That is what those scum get for play greedy deck .
     While I dont hate exodia mage and actually play the wild exodia mage myself when theres too many reno decks, why on earth would you call control players scum? 
    Why i can not ?
    And this is just salt thread , btw
     Just curious as to why, I have never heard of hate against control players before. Only heard of hate against aggro when people feel like they couldn't do anything because it was too fast. But seems like you think it is merely illogical ranting so I wont inquire further.

    posted a message on Rank 10 - 5?

    Wild rank 5 is reasonably doable with tier1/2/3 decks. You can switch decks if you hate repetition but you had better know those decks inside out: What is the optimal play this turn? What card can screw you over at this turn? What is he prob gonna do next turn? Things like that. If you know the answers then go ahead and play the decks. Wild is indeed more easier to climb than in standard anyway.
