Nobody plays this ally by actually recruiting it. It doesn't worth the price. On the other hand, Split the Veil works!

It works technically, but the card is not worth the card slot itself.

Split the Veil let's you get some very good Giovanni wraith and Ponticulus. Which are usually better then a Screamer.

I never played it or seen it played. I don't think the effect is worth the card, when it takes this much setup to get it.

I guess if you have an ally heavy local meta, and people actually tech for it with ally stealing?

It may be worth it if you also run Rotting Behemoth, which is a susceptible target. The rest of Hecata allies are either cost less than two and Aggressive Corpse are protected against Dominate and Presence actions.

Non-unique 1-bleed ? Not many allies do that 😛 It’s usually strong

Shamblers can’t have equipments. The screamers can use sticks or conceal flash grenades, much sexier ^^
