I think that this season could be the season when I finally reach legend. My best rank is 5, which I managed to get couple of seasons ago. At the moment I'm sitting at rank 10. Wish me luck.
I'm at rank 6 and as far as I'm concerned, the current condition of the ladder is the worst I have ever seen. It's just a giant cesspool of aggro shaman/token druid/secret & anyfin paladin/zoo lock. I've seen a max of 5 reno decks in the last few days, the only non-aggro deck that is popular is entomb priest.
Yes I'm playing Rogue as well. I used to play between rank 10 and 12 every season but at the moment I'm just getting trashed nonstop. As mentioned above, the only thing you see is aggro shaman/token druid/secret & anyfin paladin/zoo lock and Face Hunter. Actually might quit because I'm tired of dropping to rank 18 nonstop.

I Know your pain man, I've died turn 5 vs zoo playing patron. Ppl are just playing triple poe from Dark Peddler and Smorcing. Rank 7 now and taking a step back to reevaluate what deck I should play was at Rank 5. I really hate going face and my go to has been control paladin and mid range shaman for many seasons. It sucks to play patron and get cheap wins just because ppl are net decking face rush decks. Reno felt so good while it lasted, I didnt even care when they got the reno and ended up outresourcing me because there was a potential chance for me to just keep outplaying them and outmatch through board control. I'm just spiraling at the moment and it's unfortunate since Rank 3 is my highest achievement for many seasons

Sounds like dark times if you don't want to play a smorc deck. The sad thing is you go on tilt, and build and anti smorc deck, the rng gods will put you up against 5 fatigue decks in a row.
I have a few weeks off of school later in December I'm going to use to push to the highest rank possible as well! So far I'm at 14, my best rank in months lol
I played mech mage yesterday. I had 2 mechs on the board, and one mana vyrm. I played my gorillabot A-3, and got Mimrions head out of it. I thought "well.. why not" And the opponent killed the mana vyrm, and let the 3 mechs + mimrions head live... Oh my god! I got V-O7-Tron in ladder. I won. Greatest hearthstone memory up to now.

Everything that isn't about elephants is irrelephant.
Finally hit legend for the second time ever! Have been very busy with school (pretty much just finished undergrad studies yesterday), but I had time today to grind it out and found great success!
Saw a couple streamers (sjow?) running Patron warrior with Finley in it, so I decided to look it up on this website. I made quite a few tweaks to the version I found here though, so I decided to upload my own version (might add an in-depth guide when I get the time if people want it):
Is Secredin still very good to use this month? I've been having lots of success using my Secredin deck. Automatic wins so far, carried me from Rank 20 to 16 in 7-8 runs.
Playing Midrange paladin from rank 7 to 4 (4 stars) over the last few days. A few thoughts on my meta.
Aggro is as rare as i have ever seen and I have played well over a year. Hunter is extinct, Any warlock deck tends to be reno and I just don't get the aggro Shaman hype. It runs out of steam so quickly.
Secret Paladin has become (almost) exclusively the midrange variant. No secret keepers in the last 8-10 matches against them. It's also a way more manageable matchup thanks to Uldaman.
Priest is my most common matchup and Entomb has made Tirion a dead card in my hand!
Midrange Druid is by far my most difficult matchup
Feeling good this season. Justicar and Coghammer are the MVP's and my win rate is pretty high.
Stuck at Rank 5 with Elise Warrior, when I play slow and greedy vs CP sometimes it turns out beautifully and makes me want to keep playing the game. Trying to still decide between slams bashes cruel tasks and blocks. After getting lucky with two brawls in the same game today, can't lie it feels pretty damn good to stick with the deck! :)
Hardest matchup would likely by Reno Lock with good draw, but hell I think it counters everyone outside AGG-Sham.
What is the best deck to reach Legend from Rank 5 right now? I did very well with the classic Mechmage but I stop at Rank 5. Which deck should I try to reach Legend with? I have cards for: Tempo Mage, Midrange Hunter, Face Hunter, Midrange Paladin, Secret Paladin, Zoo Warlock, Malygos Warlock and any Reno deck? Can someone help me? :)

What does stuck mean? If you've played 25-50 games and you're still stuck at 5 fair enough you might want to change, for the most part though people probably give up on decks too soon. So much of 5-legend is variance and you'll just hit patches where it seems like one step forward two steps back. It's not the deck and it might not be you either (though it might be) it's just the nature of the grind and you have to play through it. With that in mind I think the answer to what's the best deck to play is almost always what you have fun with, because you're going to have to settle in and most likely play a couple hundred games with the thing. For instance, Aggro Shaman very well might be the best deck right now, it can absolutely get a person to legend, however I could never do it because I'd want to gouge out my eyes after 20 games of it.
Another point on best deck, I don't believe there's a deck out there right now that's powerful enough to compensate for inexperience. I really do think the last time that existed was hunter with 2 mana unleash when the meta was pretty much you could play hunter or you could lose. So even if there is a "best deck" for the meta right now it's probably still not good enough to raise your win percentage on a solid deck that you've had more practice with and are thus likely playing better. So instead of switching decks you might actually find yourself better off experimenting with and switching tech cards to address what you're seeing on ladder.
How do you deal with otk anyfin can happen pallies and reno warlocks? I had to swap deck to flamewaker mage due to running into multiple of locks and pallies with my entomb priest.
