Hey all so while tempo storm does a good job informing everyone of the meta in standard I have been playing a lot of wild this season at high ranks and have basically figured out that there are 3 decks that are being played above everything else. At low ranks everyone is playing shaman (mostly face) so i would recommend teching in an answer to Doomhammer. However, It seems from rank 5 and above all I see is Zoolock, Secret Paladin, and Patron Tempo Warrior. Because of this I believe that Freeze mage is currently the strongest class at high ranks in wild. I think other people believe this as well as most decks have a teched in Eater of Secrets, or Kezan Mystic to deal with both the freeze mages and secret paladins instead of Harrison Jones which is seen in most decks until rank 6 or so. I know most people only have interest in standard right now but in my opinion wild is a lot more fun because there isnt a "right" or "best" 5 decks that have been optimized yet and everyone isnt just playing the exact same deck ranks 20 - legend.  That being said in my opinion to reach legend in wild these are the best 11 decks from rank 5 and up: 

Im interested in knowing if you have had similar experiences and thoughts on the current best decks in wild and at what ranks you are seeing collections of kinds of decks. 

*The list above is the ranking for ranks 5 and above and are likely very different at lower ranks*

EDIT: I should have clarified that I am a North America player and the meta in the EU and Asia is likely very different as well.

This a pretty spot on assessment of the wild meta, especially Tier 1. Thanks!

Youre welcome man, Honestly ive been surprised by how much more fun Wild is than standard. I think standard can reach this point but they are still sorting things out. It will get better when people get tired of playing face shaman. 

Nice assessment. I've been treating wild like a new Casual mode.

Stomped on a secret paladin with my N'Zoth Paladin yesterday, very enjoyable to roll N'Zoth out to an instant concede.

For me anyway!

Patron Warrior also strong. I didn't play this back in the day but finding it good fun now.

Tier 1: 

1) Freeze mage (not the most played but the highest win rate)

 A glimpse of Wild's future perhaps? Fun.

Then again they said Ice Block was considered for a nerf already so perhaps it's only a matter of time on that one.

Pretty sure N'Zoth Priest should be tier one, it simply beats every other deck out there. Got me to Legend in around a day.

While Zoo and Secret Paladin and Freeze Mage certainly are strong, the only reason people seem to play them is that there aren't any other lists to netdeck. I'm certain decks that are refined specifically for Wild beat all of the easily.

While I can't comment with certainty about the tiers of decks for Wild, as I'm only rank 15 or something like that, but I will admit that it's a nice break from Standard. I mostly see Warrior, like, 5/10 games in wild, it's pretty crazy actually knowing that something, most likely death's bite, belongs in the museum ;)

I've been running both tempo mage and zoo lock, with mild success.

I actually had a great experience when I used unstable portal to get both faceless manipulator and Rhonin, an Ancestral Spirit [/card]from [card]Spellslinger, and a Duplicate. In total I had 15 Arcane Missiles, and a Yogg just waiting in my deck to be unleashed. Just things like that can make wild worth playing for a few hours a month.

I am actually enjoying wild as much as standard, I like having the most options. Well I agree that freeze mage seems tier 1 I have had lots of success with secret paladin.I also put in double consecration for mirror/zoo and have laddered from rank 19 to 5 in just a few days. 

Does anybody know what is better(kezan or eater). I feel that while kezan is stronger vs hunter and mage it has little impact against paladin. I don't think i lost a game when a person who kezaned me. eater of secrets I feel while has worse stats I feel that a 2/4 is better against aggro decks since that attack dosen't really matter. Also it can destroy multiple secrets.

Sure I am playing this Malygos Freezemage

 I think they will ultimately nerf it, from what ive seen theres no way in a few expansions it isnt really really broken that mages can beat lethal for 2 turns in a row. Either that or people will just actually run secret tech cards all the time and it wont be relevant. 

I enjoyed Wild much more than Standard this season, I thought it was more diverse. I climbed the ladder to rank 5 in 2 days with a Raptor Rogue deck I used pre-WOG, in which I basically added N'Zoth, and  2 x Deathlord for increased protection vs aggro. It's built to counter aggro shaman/zoolock/secret paladin, but it's really good vs control too. I haven't seen totally broken combos really, nothing close to C'thun in terms of boring design.

 Once Tunnel Trogg, Totem Golem and Finley rotate out, it's hard to see face shaman being a thing in standard. Which means they'll migrate to Wild...

 Patron certainly is strong, Death's Bite is just OP. Some people are experimenting with a tempo patron warrior at high levels and it is surprisingly good with deaths bite in the deck if you like patron you should try this more aggressive version if you want something fun.
