"But you can only use Zephrys if you run a Highlander deck!" While true, I would like anyone saying that to look at the current decklists of the top-performing decks, say, the ones in rank 5 to Legend. There are already numerous decks that have good draw, and just run Zephrys anyway, because the card is thát good. Suddenly, there are Aggro Warriors and Tempo Quest Druids that don't have ANY resemblance of being a Highlander deck, but still run Zephrys. And I think that part is just getting started. And I think it's thát part that is problematic.

 So i look at the current decklists in hsreplay.net. Also filter only decks Legend-5. From Latest Path to today there is 17 archetypes that overall winrate is over 50%. Also 2 of these are stated as Highlander, so from these 15 archetypes there is only 3 that add Zephrys the Great. This is Quest Druid, Murloc Paladin and Tempo Rogue.

Why Druid? Because it has some draws (Nourish, Wrath, Crystal Merchant and Ferocious Howl) and mostly play long enough to pull King Phaoris. Even that Zephrys the Great is in this deck it is played in around 12 turn and have 55,6 % winrate when played (third  worst).

Why Paladin? Because Tip the Scales and Prismatic Lens combo that pulls most of your deck. Even that Zephrys the Great is in this deck it is played in around 9 turn and have 46,2 % winrate when played (fourth worst).

 Why Rogue? Because Myra's Unstable Element sometimes is played and sometimes didn't discard him. Even that Zephrys the Great is in this deck it is played in around 7 turn and have 48,1 % winrate when played (the worst  worst).

I don't think that Zephrys the Great is that good in non-singleton deck. "[...]there are Aggro Warriors and Tempo Quest Druids that don't have ANY resemblance of being a Highlander deck[...]" There is not a single Aggro Warrior that have Zephrys the Great and is not a Highlander and Quest Druid is Tempo deck? Man, you literally skipping your first four turns and kill them with 10 mana King Phaoris.
