How is experience calculated in HearthStone? I understand you get more exp for playing against people, but i can't find how to work out the exp gained.

I'm talking about in general, not specific modes. – Terry Jul 17 '15 at 20:58

To my knowledge, there is not a definitive answer. However, we do know (from testing and from developer statements) that experience per match is influenced by the following:
- Number of cards played
- Number of minions killed
- Playing against a human seems to reward a modifier to these
A game in which one player concedes without playing a single card or killing a minion, even against a human, rewards very little to no exp.
Some wonderful people over at reddit did some thorough investigation and seem to have reverse-engineered a somewhat reasonable approximation, which can be read more at What determines how much experience I get from a hearthstone match in play mode?
