Is it okay for myth not to use minions?

At early levels I used to use minions all the time, but then I just stopped using them and removed them entirely from my deck. The point of myth is basically minions, so that's why I'm asking if it's okay. Myth has other good features besides minions, but minions are still a major factor that make up the school.

It's perfectly fine, the minions fall off later due to a couple of reasons:
1. They won't last long due to the health and AoE spells becoming more common.
2. Their spells will be outdated.
3. Later battles, especially bosses, require more strategy than in earlier worlds.

As I advanced my Myth wiz I found that I relied less and less on minions. I still keep one or two of the zero pip golems in my deck sometimes, along with a sacrifice, just in case I need a quick infusion of health. They can also be handy as a decoy or to help burn off shields when you're up against a storm enemy that casts Myth Shield.

The minions are there to help at early stages. They are never required. I rarely use them even with low level wizards. You don't have to use minions in any school; this applies to Myth as well.

Absolutely it is OK -- more than that, it is necessary. Once we get to higher level worlds, the minions become a liability because they mess up strategy.

It's definitely fine! But wait until you reach level 75, the Vassanji minion will blow you away. I use it all the time when i'm soloing boss battles.

I find it fine I am a lvl 49 Life and still have my minion in deck and so does my cousin who is fire! We bother rarely use it and most of the time discard it so not using minions is fine! The reason I like life Minion sometimes is that is does fairy when you need it so I can attack and trust it to heal me! But, no minions are not needed!
