I don't take Summoning Magic at all... Mages' troops are strong enough, you can get by without phoenixes. When truly leveled-up heroes with huge armies clash, a phoenix's 1000+ hits are wiped out in one go...
Mass Haste (or Slow) change the outcome of the battle much more. Especially in combination with mini-artifacts on units that boost initiative.

Now let me explain why I take summoning specifically. It's just that I don't play long battles as Mages, one month maximum, very rarely a month and a half or two, so the Phoenix helps a lot; and regarding the strength of the mages' army, that's not true—without artifacts, their army is weak and cannot withstand any other army without the help of the Phoenix or other hero spells.:smile14:
