After many in-and-outs of tha game I really want to finally reach Legend, but I've been completely stuck at rank 5 for the last 2-3 months. I mean, it's frustrating... the highest rank I've ever reached is rank 2 when Deathrattle Hunter was my main deck - it's no longer since I get really bored of playing the same deck again and again. Also I've already reached 500 wins making Hunter my 6th golden hero. I'd like to focus on the missing ones: warrior, mage and shaman, but those classes aren't the best to rank up these days. Well, I could play Even Shaman but I just hate to play that kind of deck, it's not my style to flood the board and wait till my opponent has no response to clear and face till death (also the reason I don't like to play Odd Paladin). Meta is very unstable right now - you never know what you're going to face so you can't tech or swap decks wisely. I mean, I've lost to any kind of druid and priest decks you can imagine: mechathun, aggro, combo, etc. I don't know what else to do to or which deck to play. What do you think guys?
My current decks are: Even Shaman (not playing it currently), Mecha'Thun Druid and Odd Warrior.
Classes I DON'T want to play again in my life because I have them golden already and stuff: Warlock. Priest. Hunter. Rogue.
It's pretty simple.. if you want to climb high and quickly, you just play the best aggro decks of the current meta.
Or.. just get better at the game. There's plenty of players like Kibler who reach Legend without tier 1 decks because they're just good and play a lot. One of my buddy actually reached Legend with a freaking The Voraxx Paladin

Can you show how to exersice luck.
Ow come on, be "realistic". Luck is a great part of the game, but still without skills you will not reach anything but rank 24.
What sever are you playing on? If you want to go for mage, I can definitely recommend Big Spell Mage, reached legend with that deck on EU for the last seasons. Feel free to add me if you are on that server.
Hate to break it to u but getting bored of a deck when it shows results is the problem why u arent ranking up.
Listen closely this is how u rank up. Make a check list of this:
Step 1- Do you have 4-6 hours per day available to play the game? If the answer is YES then proceed to step 2
Step 2- Look up meta decks whats trending and mainly what has a balanced match up across the board. HSreplay is the best for this. Also vicious syndicate but they are usually a week late each report so yeah.
You want this cause facing polarized matchups hurts ur soul and makes u wanna stop playing.
Example: right now Even Shaman Even Warlock and Cubelock all have great matchups balance. This means a healthy gaming experience lose or win.
Step 3- Sadly if u want to reach Legend it means one thing. Time. Therefor u want the faster one which right now is Even Shaman but Evenlock might be as fast sometimes so not a bad pick plus its a higher skilled deck to run.
Step 4- u have a hatred towards combo decks so u play zoolock/or u hate losing to aggro and u play Odd Warrior. BIG MISTAKE never play decks only to beat certain archetypes as u will have Polarized matchups which will stall or heavily delay ur ranking up process.
This step consists in not tilting therefor u stick to one deck and learn its ins and outs and how it performs Vs other decks.
Step 5- THIS IS WHAT SEPARATES THE PEASANTS (like me) FROM THE LEGENDS:
Play opponents deck during the match. This means that before each play u make specially if its a swing one u will first play opponent's moves to answer ur future play. Know ur enemy did he play certain card? 1 copy or 2? Will he counter it with this play? Should i not heal now cause im setting up lethal? Do i set up lethal but leave myself open to certain play and lose the match or the board?
Play what ur opponent will play in answer to yours and make a call on the odds of him having certain card to counter.
Experience is key here.
Step 6- Never play the number 1 deck. Atm its deathrattle hunter. Why? Cause meta shifts to beat the best deck and outta of the blue u will have 5 losses in a row without understanding why? Again it makes u wanna quit the game
Conclusion :
At the moment u should play what gets u wins. Fast ranking up means playing aggro like zoolock odd pally or odd rogue but i would recommend a balanced deck which consists in terms of difficulty atm even shaman (easier to master) deathrattle hunter, even warlock, cubelock (harder to master). If u say u have a steady winrate with hunter then sure go for it but dont let boredom strike u down. Rinse and repeat. They don't call it grinding for nothing
Thanks for all your comments guys :) I think I'll go for Even Warlock and Even Shaman (I need to get used to it). Maybe Big Spell Mage also but need more dust to make it.
You all have good ideas. Watching a few streamers or youtube videos may also help me to learn how certain decks are played or how to response to certain decks.
You've gotten good advice, but I'd add one more point.
Don't invest any more dust into anything unless you absolutely want those cards as core components of decks for awhile. A new set is arriving in just about 3 weeks. You don't want to be dead empty when it arrives, staring longingly at new epics and legendaries with no dust to get them.
