What are plays that you encounter often where you either think the person is dumb or a bad play?

For example, I remember someone talking about how they thought coin+Totem Golem was a bad play that they saw often. People then debated about that...and some people thought it was a pretty good play.

Something I see relatively often is people coining Jeweled Scarab in arena with no follow-up.

I also frown when my opponent plays turn 1 Mirror Image.

It's all debatable. My friends spectate me all the time and say I'm making bad plays, but I still do pretty well overall.

The times when I make real mistakes are when I'm not paying attention to the game (watching Twitch, reading something) or I make a move very quickly and realize it was bad afterwards.

Order plays for sure, lot of people can't figure out optimal order to save their lives, even in legend.

Probably the most common would be in Paladin. I constantly see people drop pyro, cast EQ, then cast another spell, usually forbidden healing, probably just from habit.

Or, Tuskarr before hero power when you would want to high roll double spell power, or visa versa, when you would not want a double. 

Aggro shamans and hunter that take 5 minutes to play turn 1 tunnel trogg or Firebat, please dont waste my time and pretend as if this play is so hard to figure out on turn 1.

I see people cycling Wrath when they should probably be killing a high value minion pretty often. You never know exactly what's in someone's hand and what they are planning for the next few moves, so it's hard to tell if it was bad or not, but often it turns out really bad for them.

That's the only order they CAN do that play in if they want to heal that turn? Forbidden healing uses all available mana crystals so..?
What am i missing that makes that play bad or wrong?

Attacking face with Eaglehorn Bow on turn 3.

About a month or two ago I played against a Freeze Mage who lost because they used their spells to kill one of my five minions. When they had an Ice Block up. And the next turn they top decked another spell that would've given them lethal if they hadn't attempted to uselessly clear my board.

 I've coined Totem Golem with Tunnel Trogg in my hand, and Tunnel Trogg was my 2-drop.

This is because I was against a druid, and he played Living Roots on turn one, and If I played Tunnel Trogg on turn one, it would have just died

 I don't know about that, actually. While there are certainly circumstances where coining Totem Golem is the correct play, this may not be one of them. If he does hero power to kill the Tunnel Trogg, you would have gotten to drop Totem Golem onto an empty board while maintaining your coin. Of course, you just get fked by Power of the Wild, so I guess it's your call.

 If you are referring to the comment above about Wild Pyromancer, Equality and Forbidden Healing.. you are mis-understanding. What the post means is the correct play is Equality then Wild Pyromancer into Forbidden Healing, this leaves you a 3/1 Pyro on the board opposed to the other play leaving you nothing.
