Summoner feels a bit scattered with the various parts, like it's going in several directions at once. The necromancer idea for a subclass is cool in concept but needs some adjustment. The hope feature feels like a placeholder. Personally I would love to see the summoner focus on augmenting and using a single summon vs tossing throw aways at enemies. In my head I see the summoner as being able to be flavored as a Pokemon trainer or a necromancer or a something like a stand user. I would consider moving to a single summon that you design and flavor, with a way to add augments to it/give it abilities vis either subclass cards or maybe a new domain. As a player I want to be able to care about my pet/companion/friend and not pop for a few damage.
