Correction: 35* into summoning magic should be achievable.

In addition: It works deceptively well with Undead. It gives them the speed and mobility that they normally lack. A screen of skellies(at level 4, due to 40 Intelligence) and a swarm of imps can take out most towers and undefended bases early on and even pressure well defended position for relative few resources(skellies being the only unit to cost anything, and it is cheap and fast to produce). "Summon mana" really helps as well.

Also, Spectral Horde makes your Riders deceptively tough(so generally works well with any cavalry army that also has access to Summon mana).

All in all, the Summoner reduces the Undead's need to Morph units and can mostly rely on skellies(with the occasional morph as the situation dictates), Riders and Summoned units.
