Hey guys,

 

Here's an awesome Highlander Token Druid deck which I've been using at Ranks 5-1 recently. It's super fun and no one ever expects you to whip out the Zephrys and pull the perfect card to completely obliterate them.

 Since you guys have responded so well, here's a quick guide which should help you pilot the deck:

 

Mulligan

For the mulligan, I advise that you keep all early drops, so that you can curve out nicely and get an aggressive and fast opener. This includes: 

1 drops: Acornbearer, Murmy... etc.

2 drops: Dreamway Guardians, Dire Wolf Alpha... etc.

3 drops: Landscaping, SN1P-SN4P... etc.

I also recommend keeping Zephrys the Great, as having the 'perfect card' at an early stage in the game can completely swing it in your favour. (Like simply getting a Hungry Crab to kill an enemy Murloc Tidecaller).

Wispering Woods is also a good keep if you're going 2nd, or have a card like Witchwood Apple which increases your hand size.

 

Gameplay

In the Early-Game (turns 1-4), try to curve out as best as you can, by playing minions which fit the mana curve effectively, and will put pressure on the opponent.

In the Mid-Game (turns 5-7), try to play cards which buff your minions, like Blessing of the Ancients, or Soul of the Forest, which makes your minions more sticky on the board.

This will allow you to keep applying pressure and dealing damage to the opponent, and will force them into playing board clears.

It's vital to never dump all of your cards onto the board without thinking about what board clears the opponent will have. For example, going into turn 7 against mage, it's probably not a good idea to flood the board with small minions, as they're likely to just Flamestrike the board and get tons of value.
