Should I always wait for an open chest slot before going to a new battle?
I'd like to know if there is a sort of "accepted strategy" on whether or not it is worth it to keep battling to get crowns/trophies and miss out on chests (and the potentially sweet, sweet loot within) or is it better to be patient and only battle when I have an open chest slot.
I figured it may be best to wait since the game warns you about it if you try to start a battle without a chest slot, but maybe at a different number of trophies there is a different way to go about it (I am very low level).
I am aware I can spend gems on the chests to open them immediately, but I would rather not do that.
So, is it worth it to only battle with an open chest slot? Or is it better to focus on gaining trophies/crowns and just keep plowing through the battles to my hearts desire, even if it means missing out on some chests? (And does the method change at a higher level?)

As I have explained elsewhere - I think playing matches while you are full on chests should be highly encouraged, because the gold and card quantity benefits of each increased Arena are significant enough to offset the statistical odds of getting undesirable cards (despite persistent myths to the contrary). In fact, it is better IMHO to leave your chest slots full when you are near an Arena boundary and fight your way one or two wins in, so that you can ensure that your next chest will be from the higher and not lower Arena.

Answer 4
I agree you will not miss out on any chests battling with full chests, but eventually you will run into players that are a couple levels higher than you with much stronger cards and you simply won't be able to win anymore and will find your max trophy range per level and you should stay there to get more cards per chest and gold to level up quicker
