Decide to do another [Common Mistake] post, however I do need help.
Some Legend Rank players has stated that they often make many mistakes, but still manage to achieve Legend rank.
As such, what are those common mistakes?
(add an example/ replay where possible)

Warlocks learn that if youâre gonna at all Hero Power, you should spend the 2 mana first, before ever committing that mana to something sitting in your hand.
Edit: This is also huge but, a very high amount of players get so sucked into the mind set of âboard controlâ. That they lose opportunities to just win the game by deciding to push certain damage at the face.

I think this is what sets most Legend players(apart from newish ones) apart from non-legend players. Itâs something I was guilty of, controlling board endlessly instead of going face and letting my opponent do the trades.
My mindset now is go face and where possible donât let them value trade, make them use resources to clear your stuff, a lot of the time they either canât or use a lot of resources and donât stick anything on board, so youâre immediately ahead again on tempo since its your turn and they have no board.

Itâs very surprising how many people miss lethal (myself included) when boards are wide and they trade instead of hitting face. So high that many times I will try to distract players by going wide on a board, usually with taunts to distract their attention of face, so that they think lethal is not possible. Iâve clutched a couple games doing that.

Yep, thatâs 1 more reason why I never concede. Some people will call it cheap winning like that, but itâs ironic how this often comes from the same people who say âluck and paying for good cards doesnât play a role, only skill doesâ when missing lethal is 100% about skill (lack of, in this case) in the first place.

Thanks for the replies above.
They are very valid mistakes and can be usually disregarded by some.
However, I would like to encourage more âdebatableâ common mistakes.
There was a feedback in the above game, I had started off badly with mulligan and initial plays.
As such, I like to hear your views if they are mistakes or reasonable plays.
