A quest-specific reset-button for your Outlands decks. No more, no less, probably not needed in general otherwise (since Outlands are very robust, especially once Anfalas Herdsman hits the table) and also not a very cost-efficient tool.
Rating: 2.5/10
Decks of mine using Men of the West
I find it most useful when running an Erestor outlands deck, where this card allows me to not worry about running Will of the West.

@sackmoney That is a very expensive replacement for a 1-cost card. I don't think I've ever used this event to return more than 2 cards. I feel like it should either be 1-cost to return all your outlands allies to your hand or 'x' cost to put them into play to really be worth including

@sackmoney i suppose it could be run as a reverse elven light with erestor in which you discard a card to draw a card and instantly get it back, but I think I'd rather keep it back for returning a destroyed ally

It's really not an expensive replacement when you are only returning one or two Outlands allies from the discard so you can play them. There's no need to return many, Outlands doesn't need anywhere close to their full cohort of allies to win. I made a progression Outlands deck for Journey to the Crossroads with Hirluin, Erkenbrand, and Erestor, and it can't pay for all the allies at the beginning but ends up with lots of resources towards the end due to how cheap Outlands allies are. This card works well enough there.
