To extend jenkar's answer: you also have to realize that gold has many more people creating decks for.
So all "bad" (compared to other gold) decks are immediatelly moved out of the rankings, leaving you only decks which are build around a very solid base (and which the AI can use).
Platinum on the other hand doesn't have this quick moving: many people activelly make novelty decks which are only that strong simply because they have many, many stat points. This leads to platinum having a complete different general setup for decks than gold. And I'd dare say that an average gold deck is stronger than the platinum deck (especially when both decks use the same number of stat points).
