Faction Play Style
The Shadow Elves bring some of the most expansive play options to Summoner Wars of any faction. They can ability to focus on sneaky, assassination-style play or long-term, economic play. They can frustrate with defensive, 'keep-away' play, or put offensive pressure on their opponent, and there is no shortage of nuances in between. Few factions present players with an opportunity to constantly discover new ways to lead their forces to victory.
Shadow Elf cards are complex and require great skill to efficiently leverage. But the unique mechanisms they offer, revolving around their summoner's incredible ability to return friendly units to your hand, will never cease to provide a wealth of fun as more strategies are mastered over time .

Faction Background
Few Itharian factions are as enigmatic as the Shadow Elves. Their underground cities are closed to foreigners, shrouding these subterranean people in an aura of mystery. Some folk rail against the evil Elves, convinced they seek the overthrow of all who live in the sun. Some claim they are a force for good, and they scheme to free all the people of Itharia from the threat of war. The Shadow Elves do not see the world in simple absolutes, nor do they view good and evil as supernatural forces. All power can be regulated for better or ill, allowing the Elves to comfortably use dark magic with no qualms over corruption, or wield light magic without binding themselves to the notions of moral ideology.
