Merlin provided a very detailed and well-written explanation about Necromancy. +++
Here's some statistics regarding SM-Masters:
On a template that isn't particularly Necromancy-focused, 250 games have been played so far.
Necromancer was chosen as the starting faction in 37 of those games.
Other factions used Necromancer as a secondary faction 80 times out of (250*2-37) 463 – that's 17.3%.
I also didn't vote because I think the poll needs options that are described in the message above.
In the last Only XL, 269 games were played.
Necromancer was chosen as the starting faction in 50 of those games.
Other factions used Necromancer as a secondary faction 98 times out of (269*2-50) 488 – that's 20%.
(In the group stage, 63 out of 360 – that's 17.5%. In the playoffs, 35 out of 128 – that's 27.3%)
