Nice job making it broken shadow 10/10

[Kiernan]

A E S T H E T I C S: 0/10 they need MLG names.

M E C H A N I C S: 12/10 so brokin. You make me proud.

T A C T I C S: 1/10 not a lot of tactics required for gameplay.

S P E C I F I C S: Treasurer is pretty lackluster. Needs more broken. Exorcism is really bad. "Oh yeah, let me return your dead Fog Blade to your hand" Storming is significantly better. And you know how I feel about battle traps. Other than that, the archetype seems to be tier 0.5~ Well done.
