Do you do these things?

Now, what kind of genre is that there?

Sound effects on, music off.

I tend to listen to more ā€˜chill’ stuff whilst playing. Usually video game soundtracks. Music from WoW, Elder Scrolls, Dragon Age, Fable etc.

I squelch at the beginning of every game. I’m not really playing Hearthstone to interact with people socially. I’d rather just not have to deal with someone annoying that decides to spam emotes.

Yes. I tilt way harder in Hearthstone than any other game lmao. I don’t even know why - and I actively try to stop myself from doing it. I don’t think the current state of the game helps much… there’s so many frustrating things to lose to.

technically it“s called post rock, albeit as with all genres that“s not really telling you much.

it ranges from more experimental noisy to kinda jazzy more…ambient music?

Edit: maybe take https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2EG3Sqekiiw as a starting point, it“s a nice slow build, great atmosphere, really love it.

Ppl dont even add me anymore to tell me that no matter if i manage to pull of my clownfiesta or not.

Usually, the HS music is low in the background.

If I do play music, I’m usually running Spotify. I’ll bet that you didn’t know
Mongolian Metal Throatsinging Rock was missing from your life!

I don’t squelch. I say ā€˜Hi’ to all of my opponents. It’s just polite.

I live in a continual state of tiltation.

I put on music, or a random video and listen to it like a podcast. Or listen to random science stuff.

Anything that fit’s the mood. Sometimes I just wanna be mellow, and put on nice LoFi or classical. Other times I put on some Rock, pop, country, etc… Or sometimes if I get a Roper I might pull out my Guitar and work on some songs I’ve made.

I forget that’s a thing sometimes, It pretty sad how people spam emotes before they win sometimes, til the rope burn to the last second.

That’s a loaded question, cause I think everyone get tilted if they play hearthstone decently. And what tilts me the most generally , the BM’s or people acting like their turn so hard when I literally can predict what’s in their hand before they play it to end me. You know what I mean if you ever play the same decks over and over.

I thought the original question meant in game sounds. I frequently have a HS content creator playing in the background.

Originally I asked only if we played with Hearthstone sounds, but I wanted to be specific. Then I decided to ask what people listen to while playing, because I find it interesting. :stuck_out_tongue:

Props to you, I’m always angry when I lose even with 70% WR.

I only squelch if the opponent spam emotes without a logic, because it distracts me.

With the right timing, i do like emotes. Sometimes i even think ā€œmy opponent should definitely emote hereā€ when it doesn’t emote.

I don’t like hs music, so i have it at the minimum; but i like the entrance quotes, so i have the other sounds enabled.
If i know i will play a lot, i put my own music too, but it is a very rare occasion

Do you listen to any science podcasts by chance? Which ones? I used to listen to Skeptics’ Guide to the Universe. I stopped awhile back. I’m not sure why. I should really catch up, though. I admittedly am glad Rebecca is gone. She stopped being funny and (somewhat) reasonable after the whole Elevator Gate thing.

If you have never listened to the SGU, ignore almost all of that! :smiley:

Sound on
Talk radio in background
I squelch like 4/5 times
I get tilted when I lose badly in a paid mode like arena, or when someone friends me only to say insults after a game. For that reason I usually wait 24 hours before accepting an invite.

So I listen to the following

  • StarTalk Podcast
  • Rich Roll Podcast
  • Huberman Lab Podcast
  • Lex Fridman Podcast
  • Klepper Podcast

those are few I’ve listen too and some of them have weird mix thoughts, Like I forget which podcast they did believe on the world being flat and it was time and space make the world look non flat cause of how it bends planets, an other podcast was about those best way to live, and I feel some of them are weird in that thinking but they also had some respectable people on their podcast also, so it becomes a weird state of , you listen to try to understand those people. But other times they do talk logically about other stuff, so beware of that, sometimes you just leave it on ā€œauto playā€ and just get into those weird rabbit holes and say ā€œWell that part valid but that other doesn’t hold up, but it also does some how as it’s explain with real world logicā€

Yea that what I mean they sometimes are legit logical and smart but believe different things, and I have seen SGU in the auto play rabbit hole and when you’re just too lazy to get out of bed and just wanna lay there, I endure it.

Like I believe everyone has somewhat a valid point as everyone should have a voice, but depending on how you were born and raise you will side with them, or not over weird things.

    1. Music off , sound effect low but hearable
    1. Music , fail/meme videos , tv shows , reading
    1. If i see a tendency to spamote , yes i squelch , if not i usually get in with them
    1. Yes , everyone gets tilted at one point , for me its often just loosing a little too much to my taste , but even tilted im still calm .

Hope i satisfied your curiosity by answering honestly !

If you mean in-game music and sound then yes. i used to have sound on though.

Usually youtube for music, comedy channel, or news sources.

Only if they spam it. If they wanna do a friendly greeting, or if my opponent or i goof up and go ā€œoopsā€ then that’s cool. i do that too sometimes.

Upon looking it up…
suffer a setback, get frustrated about it, and have it go to your head
in which case i do suffer setbacks when creating new decks. Frustration or letting a bad game get to my head no. i use that as motivation to look into the deck i’m working on to make it better. The heart of the cards ain’t gonna save me if i don’t put any effort into my deck construction :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
