C'thun/Keleseth/Spiteful druid is actually pretty strong! Try it!
That sounded fun so I gave it a try. Went 0-4.
First a Secrets Mage who Counterspelled my Ultimate Infestation (I knew it was a Counterspell, but I was out of other cards to play), then Pyroblasted me to death the next turn. Then a Control Mill-Lock who sniped my C'Thun with his Gnomeferatu (the second round, after Doomcaller put C'Thun back in my deck). Then a Jade Druid who just out-ramped me by a lot, played UI on turn 6 or so and then just filled the board with Jades. Then a Murloc Paly whose Knife Juggler sniped all my early drops, who Spellbreaker'd my taunts and killed me on Turn 7 or so.
In other words, a pretty typical example of my luck lately when I play anything except boring old aggro paly.
I hate this meta. Rotation can't come soon enough.

I feel you on rotation. This always happens after the last expansion of the year. The meta feels stagnant even though there are constant experiments going on, we never see them because the bulk are playing on-meta tier 1 while we do the same just to rank.
Witchwood looks exciting and I hope it proves as good or better than Un'Goro.

Rage quitting: the best way to ensure your opponent knows they beat a giant baby.
I still enjoy playing a slower handbuff paladin from time to time, but it seems to struggle lately haha. Too slow to deal with aggro (secret mage especially ruins its life). But it doesn't have enough power to deal with cubelock or whatever else.
You have the slight advantage though, since everyone will mulligan thinking you're a murloc/silver hand paladin haha.
Also I still always have fun playing miracle rogue. Not exactly "off-meta" but it's not really meta either right now. Just kinda in the middle.

I've been using my own Spiteful buff Pally variant. I love the deck archetype. I can get screwed early on with a bad draw or mulligan, but it can hold it's own against all the popular meta-decks. I haven't been laddering much (busy this season), but I'm rank 9 with it.
OTK paladin, the only pb is spitifull, cause they don't give you coins...
There is no cancer deck in hearthstone ! You are the Cancer !

Quest Razakus Anduin. Raza nerf wasn't a big deal for the deck.
Tempo and jade rogue.
The decks are great vs paladin, have very hard matchs vs priests and mages and, unfortunately, are hopeless vs warlocks.
