This deck has been doing extremely well as it has many different fall backs and synergies that can often pull the deck through tough match-ups.
I was already running a list that took full advantage of Elemental Allies to draw out key spells and drain the deck for Zephrys the Great, and this worked well...
You can find the previous list here: https://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/1326884-diy-highlander-55-wr
...but I went a step further with this deck.
One spell that we would love to have in our hand all the time is Conjurer's Calling, and it's significantly more reliable to draw it using Elemental Allies. This strategy takes the place of drawing out burn spells like Frostbolt and Fireball. Mountain Giant is also an Elemental! Great.
Essentially in order to create this new deck, I removed the 'bad' cards from the previous deck, these were:
Frostbolt, Fireball, Water Elemental and Arcane Servant.
...and substituted with the Khadgar package of:
Conjurer's Calling, Khadgar, Mountain Giant + plus one copy of Mirror Image.
why zephrys when the deck is filled with duplicates ?
The idea is that you use card draw from various cards like Elemental Allies, Stargazer Luna and of course Arcane Intellect to get Zephrys active. It's fairly likely you'll be able to draw enough cards in time, and even if you can't, he also activates Elemental Allies.
Good deck, go through some rough RNG patches but lots of synergies.
Love this concept, want to try it, but do not have Stargazer Luna, are there any alternatives to her or is she very needed for this deck?
Stargazer Luna is mostly used for her card draw ability. If you do not have her, try Bloodmage Thalnos or Bonfire Elemental.
