Shadow Isles is so frustrating to play against

Feedback

I feel like some of its "Weaknesses" Are absolute bull.

Take the "Undying card", combine it with Chronicler of Ruin and Phantom Prankster and you can quickly have undying units which come your turn into powerful battering rams leaving your opponent almost no room to counter. I understand that the point of these cards is fragile units that usually last only 1 round, but some of these combos are absurd. Particularly with Undying being such a low cost unit. Throw in cards like Scribe of Sorrows and you can quickly fill the board with units you cant do anything against except pray you can quickly overpower them with either Elusives or Overwhelming power.

​

I understand that some of these strategies are suppose to be strong, like a full Elusive Deck against an unprepared ally. But you can kill some of those units and fight back. Every time i fight against a Shadow Isles deck, i feel like if i fight back, i lose, because Phantom Pranksters are going to slowly chip away at my nexus while Undying keep spawning and others return for no tradeback.. If i dont, i lose, simply because they attack for free, and if they die, the previous statement applies as well.

And dont even get me started on the spells. Atrocity, Vengeance, Black spear have way too much power for the tradeoff or conditions.

​

How the hell do you fight a Deck like this? Honestly i feel like some of these units need to be later game units or have their power chipped. They are ridicolous.
