Hello and thanks in advance for your time.I try to reach legend for the first time.This is actually the closest i ever been.I played in wild for few days but now i can't climb.Used odd DH to reach diamond 5, after that swap to a reno druid deck because i encounter many aggro decks and reached diamond 2.Now i can't go pass this...drop to diamond 3 or 4 and back to 2
Can you give me some advice or recommend some viable decks?
I would like to suggest Highlander Hunter, I reached legend for the 3rd time with it (other 2 times were Demon Hunter). I ran the usual High lander package for hunter except used explosive trap instead of freezing which is alot better against aggro especially DH.
There are some good decks at the moment, but you have to ask yourself what do you encounter most?
Do you see a lot of demon hunters, pirate warriors, secret mages, then Odd Warrior is the deck you are looking for.
Do you see razapriest, quest mage, jade druid, then i would suggest you to play mechathun warlock...
also, its a grind to get to legend, you have to keep playing, and hope RNGesus is favorable to you and gives you the right matchups...
How often did i play odd Warrior and got matched against mechathun warlock, until i decided to go for an aggresive deck (pirate warrior/demon hunter) and suddenly everyone stopped playing mechathun warlock and switched to raza priest or cube warlock...

First and foremost, change your mindset. If you’ve been stuck at diamond 5 the whole month that’s because it’s where you belong. You might still be hitting legend with a good enough win streak but this will likely get you a legendary and an extra card pack and put you exactly in the same spot next month.
If it’s literally your only personal goal within the game then fair enough, but don’t see hitting legend as your goal. Becoming a better player should be your goal. Hitting legend is a consequence. It comes naturally as your skills develop as a player.
Stop focusing on your rank and focus on your play every single turn. Ask yourself if that is really the best play you can make on that specific turn, how does it stack up against your opponent’s play on his next turn and how it impacts board state, hand, tempo and life totals. Always check for lethals late in the game, sometimes you’re so focused on clearing the board or not dying that it flies over your head.

This is good advice!
Fun personal story: Hearthstone was my first CCG, I played a TON in beta and so way back in the very first ranked season I tried hard to reach legend with budget face hunter but got stuck at Rank 1.
Season 2, I "got serious" and bought a bunch of packs and tried many different meta decks over many different days of play. Eventually playing 300+ games of control warrior but I still topped out at Rank 1, just a single win away from legend!
After this I felt defeated and quit for HS a while, played other games before I eventually came back and focused on just having fun and improving my play. Totally forgot about reaching legend.
5 years later on a random Sunday morning I woke up early and couldn't sleep so I decided I'd give the legend climb a shot again (in wild).
It only took maybe 45 games to hit legend. Just a few hours. I was shocked but it was like no big deal, and it wasn't because the game had changed or my collection was bigger or I picked a better meta deck.
I was just better at playing cards. Period.
Good luck on the climb OP, but save yourself some stress and just focus on your gameplay.
You will be rewarded for it in the end! (hopefully, you don't have to wait 5 years though, lol)

OP is asking about wild I think...
Don't switch decks. When on a losing streak of 3 take a break.

What is your deck of choice?
