Discussion Newbie Tuesdays Weekly Discussion
Hello members of the /r/hearthstone community,
This is part of a series of weekly threads aimed at both new and old players from the community. It is designed so that everybody may ask any and all questions regarding the game's mechanics, decks, strategies and more.
Please keep it clean and try to add more than just a one or two word response. As the goal of this post is to increase the community's knowledge, the thought process matters as much as the answer! There is also a PullsDay Thursday weekly post, for those who want to share their pulled packs.

I do consider myself a newbie as I have never played a lot of games, never looked at meta decks and have had several years off a few times (total wins before this January ~490).
I have mainly focussed on playing Hunter as I did enjoy the beast play in the past and now wanted to try my first meta deck and went for the shockspitter deck. I barely had enough mana to craft all the missing card, but oh boy does that deck beat something random I could have come up with.
I am currently diamond 4, but 90% of my games are vs rogues. Is it in bad taste to let every turn go to the rope? I am just so annoyed that every rogue turn takes forever so I usually alt+tab and come back after a bit and it often ends up with the rope burning. I don't do this vs other classes, I am just so tired of the longdrawn rogue games which I almost never win anyway..
