Currently control DK (Blood + X) seems quite powerful, and would most likely sit well above 50% WR if not for Druid.
The other decks are definitely falling behind a bit.
Here's a list of the top 10 best performing legend decks according to metastats, and their archetype:
Ramp Druid (OTK)
Fel Demon Hunter (OTK)
Bless Priest (Combo)
Arcane Hunter (OTK)
Miracle Rogue (Combo)
Curse Imp Warlock (Midrange)
Thief Rogue (Midrange)
Swarm Shaman (Aggro)
Aggro Druid (Aggro)
Blood DK (Control)
As I'm sure you know, OTK/Combo > Control > Midrange > Aggro > OTK, and since OTK/Combo is currently at the top that means Control will naturally be at the bottom. The fact that Blood DK manages to get on the list despite that is an indicator that the deck is quite powerful, and that it will potentially climb to near the top of the list if OTK/Combo is nerfed.
Metastats has a limited sample size, here's the same list, but from HSReplay:
1. Bless Priest 2. Beast Hunter 3. Silver Hand Paladin 4. Imp Warlock 5. Miracle Rogue 6. Ramp Druid 7. Swarm Shaman 8. Control Paladin 9. Pure Paladin 10. Fel Demon Hunter
Blood Death Knight is in 19th place with a 44.37% winrate.
Losing to Sire Denathrius makes me not want to play this game anymore. The Sire Denathrius nerf makes me want to play this game again. Losing to Deathrattle Rogue makes me not want to play this game anymore. The Prince Renathal nerf makes me not want to play this game anymore.
Have to disagree. Of all the decks I am currently running, my Blood DK deck is the only one (barring Celestial Druid) that remains almost unbeaten. In fact, when I test a new deck, like OTK Hunter, etc, and it fails miserably, DK is the deck I go back o to cheer myself up again! Haha!
I did try a Full Hybrid DK (one of each Rune - it was bad), and an UnHoly DK (it was average), so it may be that the other DK decks are lacking in power a little, but Blood DK is definitely uber-strong in the right hands.
Cool story, bro. I didn't even have to buy (Gold) any new expansion packs to realize how smoothly I was gliding through Ranked with all those fancy new decks trying (and failing) to be as unfair as Imp-Curselock.
Quick glance at HSreplay confirmed, the DK Class is actually unplayable competitively, the "strongest" list roaming barely around 50% . Extra Miserable stats against Imp-Curselock (My Top 200 Legend deck of last month) as well as vs Ramp Druid.
Then again you are probably a Diamond ranked dude (at best) so your fancy Blood DK is getting you somewhere in Silver/Gold.

Does anyone know how to beat this new 30 card token buff DK list with Blood DK? I already try to mulligan for that matchup and to not waste removal but i can't manage to stabilize once they get the ball rolling because they never run out of gas and can build some very scary boards with their buffs. Feels a lot like the control vs Implock matchup in the last expansion.
Blood DK at 60%+ winrate... seems pretty playable to me...
For the record, this is what it looks like at Legend:
Nice! There we go then! Blizzard aims for a class to achieve an average of around 50% winrate. So for Legend, that looks like it is spot on, balance-wise. That said, however, Legend is understandably a small percentage of the playerbase, so likely not as important to Blizzard as the main chunk (in the Silver-Diamond bracket) because they dont represent the majority of player experiences.

Use amalgams and the guy who eats a corpse to discover an undead to stock up on as many of the 8-mana board clear guy as you find. Then it's a pretty straightforward case of clearing the board when it gets too big each time.

Please someone tell me, this 🤡 is not for real ?
So ur showing us a example with 300 Games Samplesize, but not enough you didn't even bother to specify which rank, just the general / all ranks setting.
How did this Amateur who doesn't even know how to navigate HSreplay properly become a Moderator in here ? Yuck.
Blood DK is unplayable, let me repeat. Un-play-able at Legend if you want to climb, without having to amass enough sample size that would require like 12 hours a day in front of your computer, trying to break even.
Warlock and Druid are the only playable classes right now if you plan to rank really high. But why listen to someone who was among the best 200 Hearthstone players in Europe just last month, when you can just troll and defend your nons as a Moderator, right ?
Instead of attempting to reach Legend rank for the first time, why don't you just go ahead, make good use of those pOwErS - ban me, because I'am obviously mocking you... and having a BLAST with it. lul.

Wow imagine a top player actually have some manners instead of go full disrespectful against other persons opinion regardless if is right or wrong.

And this, boys and girls, is why you NEVER post while high.
Seriously, dude. I'm not sure what's sadder: your pathetic effort to bait him or the fact that you think your argument makes an ounce of sense.
