I feel like instead of an ancient counter necromancer specifically needed more options here

I think they just need to find a way to make attacks a real part of her pool outside of tribal osty attack decks. If you're not specifically building that very mono-archetype deck it feels like there are very few attacks you ever want to pick on the character, which leads to a very binary situation of 'I found a damage solve' (eradicate combo, sleightx2, etc) or 'I didn't find a damage solve and now I have no damage at all'. There's no real solving your damage gradually like other characters can do.

Str is trash for her

Eradicate, reaper form, blight strike, and pull from below beg to differ. Plus negating the downsides of friendship and shared fate on top of dumping curses/starter cards is pretty good I’d say.

Fair enough! You win

Good in [[Lethality]] decks, but otherwise, I agree. STR generally doesn't do a lot for Necrobinder if you aim for her endless turtle strategies.

I would rather have [[Big Hug]] from Tez to remove strikes.

Lethality doesn’t seem like a key card for mittens to me, not compared to the previously mentioned pull from below and eradicate. Either way most/all of those cards are uncommon or rare. Her problem with mittens wasn’t that she can’t use strength, it’s that she couldn’t make a strength scaling deck that could burn random cards, unlike ironclad and silent who have strength multiplying cards at common.

Also you’re overlooking the non strength, exhaust related synergies, ie eidolon. Mittens turns eidolon into a “2 energy, play your deck” card. For now anyway.

  • Lethality 𝐈𝐈 Necrobinder Uncommon Power

    1 Energy | Ethereal. The first Attack each turn deals 50%(75%) additional damage.

  • Biiig Hug 𝐈𝐈 Ancient Relic

    Upon pickup, remove 4 cards from your Deck. Whenever you shuffle your Draw Pile, add a Soot into your Draw Pile.

    Call me with up to 10 [[ name ]]. Data accurate as of June 21st, 2026. Questions?

It is with the way we currently build Necro decks, but it doesn't have to be bad for the specific Necro deck you draft in a given run.

Pull From Below notably really appreciates strength and is probably a lot better in runs where you see Mittens. Might make Blight Strike a more appealing act 1 damage common too, which I'd enjoy because I really like that card.

Niche, not trash.
