Unleash the Undead Horde with Skeletal Swarming
Skeletal Swarming is a potent enchantment that turns your modest skeleton army into an overwhelming force. By granting trample and compelling every skeleton to attack each combat, this card ensures that your foes are relentlessly pressured. The dynamic boost of +X/+0, where X equals the number of other skeletons you control, creates a snowballing effect, turning even the smallest skeleton into a formidable threat. This synergy rewards a deck built around skeleton tribal strategies, especially when combined with cards like Diregraf Captain or Death Baron that further empower your undead legion.
Beyond its combat prowess, Skeletal Swarming continuously replenishes your ranks at every end step. The enchantment creates a tapped 1/1 skeleton token, doubling that output if any creature died that turn — a mechanic that thrives in sacrifice or skirmish-heavy decks. This constant influx sustains pressure, enabling you to overwhelm opponents gradually or in bursts. For players who enjoy grinding out value through incremental advantages, this card fits naturally into a midrange or aggressive build, making your skeletons not just a nuisance, but a relentless tide.
