Extended description

arrow

Nemon Hotep is a pretty good Spellfire champion and his photo on the card is a pretty cool one. Undead champions who aren't monsters allow necromancer players who build undead decks a variety that makes their decks less vulnerable to the very commonly used event Treasure (130/4th).

Nemon's immunity is a good one too, because there are a couple of things your can do with Nemon that will have people throwing cards like Wish (384/4th) at him. Because of his very high base level, if you have Negative Planar Energy (73/NS) in play, he will be almost unstoppable in combat (this is almost cheating it's so unfair). If you put the artifact Crystal of the Ebon Flame (13/AR) on Nemon, you're not going to win any friends at the table either. With the Crystal, if you already have it attached and you're attacking, all of your attached cards go first so your opponent's champion will end up being discarded after combat, win or lose, no matter what level he is.

The several killer combos that can be made with Nemon make him a popular champion in Ravenloft world decks as well as the more general undead theme decks. His high level and weak immunity keeps him from serious consideration in standard tournament decks though.
