The cold auras froze them unconscious in 2-3 turns and even after loosing heads they could not flee. A casting of these spells cost 35/40 in CBM and the battle did not include the mage. Two kitted Zmeys cost around 90 gems by comparison.

Problem is that you have to catch the Zmey with your hidden in sand forces. Not an easy task, and there are a whole lot more easy counters to undead than there are to a kitted out Zmey.
