No I don't want to hear your "Well Played" emote when I just got stomped 30-0 because you coin innervated a chillwind yeti and I drew no answers, had a bad mulligan, and a horrible starting hand. It's such a stupid gesture even if you think you are being genuine instead of sounding like a douche who's trying to pity me.
So no, I don't want to hear you try to speak on behalf of both of us when you're some anonymous no name not face to face with me, who probably lucked out. They really need an auto-squelch feature and let these idiots know if they're being squelched for every time I forget to do so
Imho people who look down on you just finish you off in a BM way and take much longer than needed when the lethal is obvious.

I feel it's because there's not the same culture as SC2 and WC3 since they're both competitive based games and respect is a big part of that. Hearthstone is a casual game attracting another type of audience.
Secondly the "who probably lucked out" are you unable to accept that someone else might be a better player than you?

WELL MET. Seriously at least with a chat system you are at least insulted if you pull an offensive GG.
I've won games where the opponent has been on or around 2HP and have no taunt out and I have had no possible ways to win the game so I psyche them out with well played spam until they concede themselves. Something that probably wouldn't happen if there was a chat system.

Wow, Arena seems to be impossible for me this week. I've had 3 Arena runs in total, all of them were painfully bad compared to like 20-30 previous runs. 3-3, 5-3 and now probably 4-3. Two of the decks weren't bad at all, my opponents were just either better or/and more lucky compared to me. In a single run I've met Deathwing twice , Harrison Jones and Ysera once.
The last legendary I've gotten in an arena draft was weeks ago, I'm not even exaggerating...
Edit: Lesson learned, I should refrain from QQ-ing too early. My worst deck, which I expected to go 4-3 at most, went from 1-2 to 8-3. I didn't play better at all. Arena is sooo random in so many ways.

Haha. If I want to genuinely add someone, they always decline. I guess I've gotten a grasp of what "forever alone" is meant to be.

So I can first off hear if they are truly being good mannered or intentionally bad mannered (not that it would matter most of the time since I have no love for losing to anonymous trash). Secondly, maybe I want to type something back if Blizzard adds chat something along the lines of "go !#%% my @!#%@ lucky noob", when all I could mean is "you got lucky I hope I don't queue into a lucker like yourself again". But nope, the only responses we get are "I will hunt you down, Your soul shall suffer, The elements will destroy you, The light shall burn you, etc", what a joke.

i just lost a constructed game because the animations for all the stuff i was trying to do took literally 30 seconds and the second cairne wouldn't spawn so i couldnt fucking target it. i had the game 100% won
come on.. it's sad that that can happen in a competitive type game..

theres nothing remotely competitive about this game, its a casual luck based time waster

I wish streamers would stop friggin spending like 5 minutes arguing against twitch chat lethal. There's maybe like 1 in 20 situations where chat is actually right but the rest of the time they're just feeding the brainless trolls that get off of it.

It's turn 11, I've lost every turn until 9 or so but now it's time for my epic comeback. I've got a full board, he has nothing. Then I hit his minion with my face and die.

Your attitude is trash, be more introspective.
