With 4 phases in the game, I can see a future for Morn if there will be a card that will allow DE to deploy units in Command and HQ phase. If that will ever happen, her ratings will go up. Perhaps a kabalite or raider that has "action: Deploy a kabalite or raider at this planet." I hope that happens as that will make Nexus of Shadows more valuable. That will then become a Kabalite/Raider Swarm deck.

Good point. I don't think we will see such a card though as that might make her too strong, but I do think she will be balanced out nicely once the cycle is concluded. The Shadowed Thorns Bodysuit out of Deadly Salvage or the Flayed Skull Slaver looks nice for her setup already (the latter synergizing with The Nexus for instance) and a few more good Kabalite/raider-traited units/tricks and she probably won't die on her knees :)

Could anyone tell me what her attack and health are when bloodied?

Any card that grants such an precedented deploy ability would also likely benefit Kith. Not sure if the powers that be will go that route. 

Whilst I'm also not sure about that route, if it's Raider/Kabalite specific I don't think it does much for Kith. Nor do HQ deploys, though Command/Combat ones would. Basically anything that specifically affects those sub-types isn't going to suddenly boost Kith, much like things that boost or riff off Torture (as opposed to strong cards that happen to have the trait) help Urien, but not Kith.

2/6

Woo, the Dark Eldar finally get a raiding, pillaging and enslaving Warlord! All hail Morn!
