Well, a faction's weaknesses don't greatly affect how we evaluate the individual power level of cards in said faction. For example, only because Silver Twilight is light on actual card draw doesn't make Crooked Treasurer playable. Sure, there are cases where an inefficient card might be the best choice for the lack of in-faction alternatives. However, most of the time there's just no need to run subpar cards, especially considering that combining and splashing more efficient cards from other factions is very affordable in CoC.
"the ability to play an unexpected effect from a mono deck is worthy of recognition."
Okay, let's go with this.
In my current gaming group where mono decks are prevalent, this card is indeed 'worthy'
I agree. It is not the best card out there, but indeed worthy. Especially in a mono deck. Some also miss the point that it can also remove support cards, not only characters (which makes the comparison to 'a single glimpse' quite unfair). A bit pricey, though, but for one that likes building dreamlands-decks (like myself) it also adds a nice thematic touch.
