This. Sephiroth's an over hyped whale trap that goes into one type of deck.
>DUDE HE MAKES A BLOOD ARTIST EMBLEM
Any aristocrats deck worth it's salt is going to have a blood artist effect out for almost the entire game. Sephiroth's doesn't go away when he dies, big whoop. Bastion of Remembrance doesn't die to wrath of god ether and nobody is shelling out 60 bucks for that card. He's fine in any aristocrats deck but the conversation stops at fine. The character's reputation got ahead of his card's actual ability.
Shelly is better, more flexible, and will continue to be a strong archetype agnostic punisher card for years to come.
