If you're like me and you've put off your ladder climb until the very last minute, first, don't do that, and second, we've got you covered! Here are the best decks to climb courtesy of the stat masters over at HSReplay.
Keep in mind that the winrates included in this post will fluctuate over time and may even differ depending on your rank (data is from Diamond to Legend).
Ramp Paladin (62.4% WR)
Weapon Rogue (62.1% WR)
Token Druid (61.1% WR)
Highlander Hunter (59.8% WR)
Secret Mage (59.5% WR)
That does it for the top decks to climb the Hearthstone ladder in January 2021. It sure has been an exciting month with the new mini set arriving and we're looking forward to seeing what meta evolution will bring next month.

Alas, I always seem to wait with ladder climbing until the final moments... and then miss out not only on the ranks, but also an occasional quest.
Your Ramp Paladin list is (very) wrong.
You can't run Amalgam in the deck because you need Nozdormu to be your only Dragon.
Also, the Broomstick is entirely unnecessary since most of the deck either has Rush, or Taunt, or costs 10 mana
I think it's fair to debate whether or not this is the best version of the deck, but I would definitely not say the one shared here is "wrong" because
Alura + Coin + Tip the Scales on 4 has got to be among the most insane combos I've ever run into... or maybe it's just that I've run into it five times this morning when all I want to do is play exactly one more corrupted card so I can finish my weekly?
I encountered one Paladin after another tonight, but it was all Librams (EU Gold).
Secret Mage is doing well? How did that happen?
Reading between the lines in the latest Viscous Syndicate report, the answer seems to be two-fold:
1) The deck is established enough to beat the experimental decks that people are trying right now.
2) The deck can provide multiple cheap 2- and 3-damage AoE effects, which is really strong against the rising Token Druid.
Between those two factors, the deck is doing well for now. It sounds like it will struggle as the meta evolves, unfortunately. I’d love to see a consistent Secret Mage deck stick around.
Probably cause the stats are from bronze to gold?
