I hit Legend for the first time today, playing a classic demon zoo deck. I was stuck at rank 4 for 10 days playing Renolock/Elise Priest, but finally this deck worked much better against secret paladins (about 70% victory against them). I found rank 1 easier to grind than other ranks, because I met more legend players who play with more original decks. But perhaps i was lucky.
can you link me your deck list? I will try anything to get past rank 3 .
I've also hit Legend with classic (with little changes) demonzoo lock and it worked much better than a few other decks, at least vs secret palas where ranks 1-2 are full of that crap. Although it's not my first legend and got there with few other decks, demon zoo always worked for me best when I'm very close to it (ranks 1-3). You should try it.
made it for the 2nd month in a row! wasn't sure if I would bcs I didn't play as much and didn't feel pressured to do it since I finally reached legend last month. used control warrior once again for the grind from rank 5 or 6 up to legend. prior to that I played primarily echo mage (getting my golden mage along the way) with a little bit of shadowpriest and a few other decks.
got to rank 1 3 stars several times last night, but ended up finishing the night at rank 2 3 stars and wisely decided to stop there before I got too tilted to losing to players with god draws every game. logged on today and went 8-0 to go to legend for the 2nd time :D
now i'm considering crafting Varian Wrynn to celebrate warrior getting me to legend twice, but maybe i'll finally craft my first golden card instead (likely my 2nd golden armorsmith or 2nd golden shield slam)

Decided in the last 3 days to gun for Legend again and did it again with the same Demon Zoolock I've used last time in October to get here.
Deck is in signature.
Good matchups against Secret Paladins and Midrange Druids, two very popular classes. Still lost against them sometimes but wouldn't have reached Legend if I didn't have a favourable matchup with these opponents (and there was a lot of them from Rank5-Legend).
Ugh I was stuck at rank 3 4-5 stars, Finally got past it and now I am stuck at rank 2 4-5 stars! I swear the game makes you lose/gives you bad draw just to keep you playing in the high ranks!! fixed!
I give up on this season. Peaked at rank 2 before tilting all the way to rank 6 over a few days. I play my own midrange druid deck and just trying to make it work
The inkeeper is a legit troll. You can tell by his smirk/face in the rank 1 icon pic.
I was rank 1 3 stars and have fallen back to rank 2 4 stars.
Game is rigged lets you get close to legendary then gives you bad hands/mulligan so you go back down and have to play more.
The secret to smooth sailing all the way to legend is coming to these forums to whine every time you loose a star. You have a few hours until the end of the season. Try starting 20-30 babyrage threads before midnight and you'll get there in two shakes. Good luck!

Amazing deck.
Got to r5 today using Ebola paladin haha =\. Pretty decent vs Druid and Paladin for me. It might be because everyone now expects secret paladin

Nope, rank 5 : 4 stars and out of time.
I do have limited playtime, but still. Coulda been better.
However, always happy to get the epic I need or pile of dust!
Nightblade Argent Lance Flame Imp
Argent Watchman Argent Squire Frost Giant
Aviana Hogger Snipe Sea Giant
Heh, in this month i take 5 times 5 stars on rank 1 -_-
It's pretty hard to play versus druid, with control decks, any decks actually, exept casino mage, but casino mage autoloose some other decks.
So patron give me legend, still top1 deck.
Grats to all the legends this season!
