Personally I just pick whatever I have to grind through and if there's nothing left I just switch between whatever I can have fun with.

On NA there's no ship left for me to grind, although I might just buy Aoba and get through her.

I might just bring out the good old Hatsuharu though, I love how people expect nothing and then get surprised by the SE using JP DD with 5 guns and 64knts fast 6km torps.

Perfect to remove enemy DDs from my cap.

My Dunkerque is ready for ranked, Im thinking bout the Farragut too and the Cleveland, but that means I gotta buy either of the US ships back and prep up a commander, upgrades n that.

Gnevny, despite not playing the T6 variant so far. Looks very strong.

Will be sticking with the New Mex......served me well in season 4.

The Leander may well see a fair bit of action as well.

Bayern......maybe/maybe not...dunno

I'll initially try my Dunkerque and Warspite (though recently, and I hope this stays in the PVE realm, I can't seem to hit anything with it) 
Otherwise, I'll try my Molotov and Anshan a couple times just to see how I do.

Aoba, Nuremberg, fubuki and Farragut. That's because they're the only T6's I have. I might use a bayern too, but only if i can finish the classy missions in time so i can finish my Koenig grind.

First choice; Perth (I love the smoke and a lot of people don't know how it works)

Second: Bayern (Super versatile and tanky)

Third: Molotov (Those T9 railguns hit hard)

Since I like intimidating other ships with big guns I'll probably be using the Warspite and Bayern.

Oh, New Mexico, Farragut, Bayern, Nürnberg, Independence, and Ryujo too.

 

Gnevny and Budyonny on EU.

My plan is to ride the wave up to rank 1 within the first few days, to make sure I miss the flood of poor-quality teammates that tend to come later on. For the early ranks, I would probably advise a BB (Arizona, Warspite, Fuso), since they can carry fairly well even if your team's synergy is poor. Later on however, a cruiser (Cleveland, Budyonny) or a DD (Farragut, Shinonome, Gallant, maybe Gaede) would be much better. If the CV population is enough to get a regular match, the Ryujo will be the king, with large numbers of (3,1,1) loadouts, or possibly skilled (1,2,2) players.

My boat of choice is the Fuso - lots of guns, long firing range, good speed. I had great success with it in past seasons.

It depends on what you know you can perform well in. For me, FarragutAoba, and Dunkerque have always given me great results in ranked. However, I do want to try out using Warspite and Duca d'Aosta in ranked this season.

I have a few options at tier 6 to choose from.  

 

For BBs, Ariona, no doubt due its far superior crew.

 

For cruisers, I could choose between the Cleveland, Leander, and Molotov with the Molotov having the best crew by far (my Donskoi crew).

 

And for DDs, it's almost certainly the Farragut, due to an outstanding crew.

I could go New Mex with my Mo captain (18pts) or a Bayren with my GFK captain (18pts).

I've been building up my captains for Fubuki and Farragut, so I'll probably start there.  Then possibly add in some Warspite, Leander, or Aoba as things go along.
