Why it might work

  • A shared threadAromatic, amber and soft spicy run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Shadow Grey in fall and Molten Steel in summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Shadow Grey is moderate on both, Molten Steel moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
