Spectres
There are few summoner builds, but i would wait for 0.4. Shaman will be probably new meta summoner. GGG also threw in new sorc ascendency with exclusive summons that has capability to be uterly OP.

The new Sorceress Ascendancy doesn't really play like a Minion build. It's heavy focus on Command skills, so it's basically a regular Caster with Minion SFX I would say. :P

Imho it will be played as older summoners that focused on spectre/tamed beast. This will use undead summons mostly for support/buff and djinn will be BIG hitter. Fire guy has some serious damage scaling potential.

Specter/Tamed Beast have way more passive gameplay. You can run around and still deal damage. But here, all Djinn Summons need you to actively use skills to do damage. We are talking about to at least 4 active skills here and up to 8! It's just my opinion but it really doesn't feel like the "traditional" minion gameplay we are familiar to. Don't get me wrong, it's look cool, fun & different - and I will definitely test this out - but I don't think it will cater to minion gameplay enjoyer if you get what I mean.
