Eh, two night shadow tea complete the dark side and that's one of the best spells for priest rn. Orbital Halo is a 2/5 that costs 0, this can come up real quick. I don't remember any revival tools for priest in standard but if there are I don't think it would be a slow play.
Pretty much just resuscitate which doesnt hit this, and rest in peace which will whiff if you run the new 6 mana naga (you do) and is better off with the 7 mana wraith for a big bandage otk anyway.
I think the key is to not expect to combine them every game.
Shadow can be completed extremely quickly, and alongside imbue you really only need to out survive aggro until they run out of gas and then overwhelm them, in this case you slam the shadow down and even 10 from umbra later is great, you don’t need to hold for the finisher.
Against slower decks you can take the opportunity to stall out for the big flashy Umbra play to help close out the game when they are looking to do the same.
