Mid? As in middle-of-the-road?

Considering fight scenes are hard to write in general, I think the biggest issue will be keeping track of all the summons whilst maintaining clarity for the reader. As one of the posters said, if its a stomp then its less of an issue but if isn't a stomp then you really need to consider how well coordinated everything is and how exactly they fit into the action without losing the reader.
I would suggest maybe drawing their positions on a piece of paper and imaging how your character would direct his summons before hopping into combat themselves. Then consider how your "enemies" are initially placed before writing out how they respond. Note, you don't have to keep a big ass white board and draw positions and plays like a football coach or anything, but having a general idea of the fight is better than winging it with all the summons your character has got.
