    This card is amazing! It acts as a Nightfall activator for 2 separate turns, and it lets you use spell mana to pay for Nightfall units. For example, you could play this on turn one, skip turn two, and then Duskpetal into Nocturne on turn 3! This card reminds me of Chump Whump, in that it has okay stats and generates useful token spells in hand. Duskpetal is actually even better than a puff cap if your deck is running Nightfall units!

    The 1-drop that brings the whole Nightfall mess into focus. Too bad it can't keep Duskrider from sucking.

    On its face, Lunari Duskbringer does seem to pull the whole Nightfall deck together. But I'm still not convinced it's going to work. Given the curve of Nightfall cards we've seen so far, here's basically how you'd imagine the idealized play turn by turn:

    1. Stygian Onlooker for early game damage before your opponent can put up a defense against Fearsome
    2. Lunari Shadestalker to push chip damage with Elusive
    3. Doombeast or Crescent Guardian to pressure/put your opponent on the backfoot
    4. Nocturne to line up your final attack
    5. Duskrider to finish the enemy off thanks to Nocturne's lining up fearsome attacks

    Of course, the problem here is that every one of these cards needs to be the second card you play, so you need lots of cheap activators. Lunari Duskbringer is a 3-of in that deck, and can act as two activators if you draw it, but you can't rely on it alone to consistently curve out your Nightfall cards. Maybe Fading Memories helps get you over the line of this, but the core problem is still that the archetype looks like an aggro deck that plays a turn behind curve by design. You could always run the archetype with Bilgewater for access to more good cheap starting plays, but then you lose out on the valuable Targon activators.

    Mayba Diana makes this all worth it, but it seems clunky regardless of Lunari Duskbringer

    The new one drop from Targon Gift Giver, might be worth running in a nightfall deck, with the gem it can also work as an activator on two diferent turns.
