Corpses of the Lost
Oracle Text
Skeletons you control get +1/+0 and have haste.
When this enchantment enters, create a 2/2 black Skeleton Pirate creature token.
At the beginning of your end step, if you descended this turn, you may pay 1 life. If you do, return this enchantment to its owner's hand. (You descended if a permanent card was put into your graveyard from anywhere.)
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Corpses of the Lost is a tidy value engine for black-based Skeleton decks, leaning hardest into an aggressive-tempo plan where repeated pressure matters more than raw board size. The immediate 2/2 Skeleton Pirate gives you a body right away, while the global +1/+0 and haste turns every Skeleton into a fast, punishing threat that can start trading or pushing damage the turn it matters. Its real ceiling comes from the end-step return clause: if you descend, you can pay 1 life to bounce it back and reuse the token-maker and anthem effect, effectively turning graveyard setup into card advantage. That makes self-mill, sacrifice, and fetch-land style graveyard filling especially attractive, and cards that repeatedly put permanents into the graveyard help keep the loop online. In play, it rewards sequencing: deploy it when you can immediately benefit from the token and then aim to descend each turn to keep the pressure relentless.
