When the new expansion came out, I've always wondered if it is possible to play Highlander Warrior. I've tried many ways to construct the best deck. This is the far best Highlander Warrior which ties the hands of other Highlander decks. I've played this deck from Rank 3 to Rank Legend. Enjoy!

Thanks for 10k+ views and generous upvotes! As I've promised, here is mulligan guide:
The deck is called Highlander. Which means, we are only able to use a card once in our deck. Due to that, we should be much more careful in order to maintain greatest results. The deck simply requires more brain than other control warrior decks. The player should be able to play around full boards and such. For example, due to having 1 brawl in our deck, we should be looking for other options first to clear the board. This is why I've decided to write a guide and share deck code with you guys. I'll be briefly explaining this deck on a video, which should be aired in few days. Best of Luck!
Mulligan tier list:
Perfect: Eternium Rover Town Crier Frightened Flunky Dr. Boom, Mad Genius
Good: Shield Block SN1P-SN4P Acolyte of Pain
Against Aggro: Warpath Restless Mummy Militia Commander Weapons Project
Against Control: Armagedillo Supercollider
Against Mage: Supercollider Brawl Big Game Hunter Shield Slam
If you are facing a lot of control warriors, you can swap Weapons Project and Harrison Jones with Faceless Manipulator and Baleful Banker (for copying his elysiana)

is this still viable?
Excellent Guide, thank you
Can't beat Control Hunter with this. 3-4 Eaglehorn Bows + 10 or more secrets. 2 weapon removal is not nearly enough. Zul'Jin summons three Huffers and he does nearly 20 damage from empty board when he plays him.
Will this deck be still good after the Dr. Boom, Mad Genius Nerf, or is my hype crafting it worthless, when Dr. Boom, Mad Genius becomes 9 Mana?
How do you beat quest paladin with this??
zephrys gives you mass dispel, an advantage that regular control warrior doesnt have. you clear eggs early and you can beat them easily. Remember they doesnt have board control spells, you can go wide and start value trading.
Insta-lose against control Warrior
Extremely fun deck! My friend KidKerrigan loved the look but was missing a few cards, so we didn't play the exact 30 cards but still had some great games. Check them out;
(Games start at 4:47)
Big thanks to Salazar for sharing the deck!
funny garbage :)
F in the chat for Finley
I added Zephrys to a new deck and auto completed. This will give you the highest winning deck that has him for Warrior. It gave me this deck except for 2 card changes, Whirlwind out / Slam in, Sandbinder out / Barista Lynchen in.
I wasn't sure at first why anyone would play this over regular control, then I played it. My first game was against quest paladin! I convinced Zeph to give me Mass Dispel twice that game and won easily, this is usually an auto lose to control warrior. My second game was against combo priest, again I convinced Zeph to give me Mass Dispel which won me the game.
Zeph is not just about finding you a brawl when you need it most, although that is great. He finds you cards you normally don't have access to like Mass Dispel and that can defeat some of his worst match ups.
I'm not a fan of highlander decks if the class doesn't have a class card that benefits from it like relise (druid), brann (hunter) or reno (mage). Zephrys is a good card (if not the best card of the expansion) but its neutral and the fact that warrior doesnt have a class card that does something if there is no duplicate makes highlander warrior not very appealing imo.
Worse then usuall control warrior. Nothing special
Is armageddilo worth putting in the deck just for zilliax?
It's not just zilliax, Frightened Flunky, Zilliax, Tomb Warden and discovered mechs from Omega Assembly, Delivery Drone can get buff from our taunt buffer card
According to HSReplay, this deck has 54.3 winrate, while the best control warrior decks have 59-60%. There is a highlander aggro warrior that works much better than control (58%). So this deck is recommended only if you don't really need to ladder up.
Beat Highlander Hunter :D !
Every Highlander deck type is fun
Good deck for ladder. İ build it when i saw and couldnt wait to play. Thx salazar and sry for bad english lol.
Ofc no.
