Corpses of the Lost (The Lost Caverns of Ixalan) Near Mint

Raise the Skeleton Crew

Corpses of the Lost is a compact enchantment that rewards an aggressive skeleton plan. For {2}{B} it gives Skeletons you control +1/+0 and haste, turning static blockers into immediate pressure. When it hits the battlefield you also get a 2/2 black Skeleton Pirate token, a tidy way to seed the board and trigger sacrifice or descent synergies without extra setup.

The card plays nicely in decks that capitalize on graveyard interactions. At the beginning of your end step, if you descended that turn you may pay 1 life to return Corpses of the Lost to its owner and redeploy the buff next turn. That loop makes it efficient in incremental attrition decks and supports recurring tempo. Corpses of the Lost pairs cleanly with token generators, reanimation lines, and cards that put permanents into your graveyard.
