Switching from
Boris to Amber should be very easy - most of the cards are the same. You might have to acquire some Dimension Rippers (hopefully you already have 4x Jeweler's Dream) and maybe some Reserve Weapon, but that's about it.
Amber is just a better hero than
Boris. You nailed down one of the problems of
Boris; the other problem he has is that 4SE is a high cost, and a string of PotL's can easily keep him from activating his ability (and his, like
Zaladar's, is an ability you really want asap). The inability to kill 5-6 costed allies can hurt, but that actually has a solution: just run lots of Retreat and
Crippling Blow, and rush them hard before they can come back down and dominate the board.
But almost nothing in the game compares with an
Amber-buffed Jeweler's Dream, if not dealt with immediately. If
Boris can spend 4SE to kill a Jasmine,
Amber can spend 3SE + 4 resource to get in 3 * 4 = 12 damage, enough to kill 3 Jasmines. We haven't even get to the resource renewel you get from JD.
