seems right on target for green. good removal. I think the cost is finally right for a green utility card against flyers. Most have been 2G or more.

i don't think so: first you need infinite mana for [sac - return - sac -return] and do not exist any enchantment that give you more mana than the CMC of the creature.
by the way it's really cool infinite - instant blocker.
Except it isn't, since it CIPT. Drudge Skeletons is better at blocking anyway.

I like the skeleton a lot, it could make a card like xathrid demon a little bit more playable (although the demon has so many problems I don't think this card is enough to make it worth using). Hoping for an upgraded version of the demon, or some other cool black creatures that require sacrifices.

They are about just as good as each other at blocking. Assuming you cast either, they can both block the turn they ETB, and then each requires only 1 activation such that they will both be tapped after combat. Then you untap.
Finally, my years of waiting with my 500 foil Carnival of Souls have paid off!
Reassembling Skeleton + Ashnod's Altar + Carnival of Souls + Soul Warden + B = Infinte mana. Nothing like a four card combo that renders Carnival of Souls not complete rubbish. Now we just need a card that breaks Mudhole.
As for the rest, the stronger Lunge is nice but the others are meh.
As promised here is the first card from Evan.

Draft my cube!
Watch me stream!
If you lose the flip, nothing happens!
Attrition. Or, um, anything.
Plot of Dragon's Maze:
Niv-Mizzet plays Realmwright, chooses "Gate". Then a dramatic retelling of the ensuing argument.
although, i have to wounder if they will include a life counter die, because i see a preaty purple die in the artifact picture.

ゆっくりしていってね!!!
Any Dredge applications? Honestly, I think it's just a solid card. It's a cool take on Drudge Skeletons that I like a lot.

But glad they decided to go ahead and nuke Wing Snare :rolleyes:; it was still good (Seriously)

The Zen teaser cards from Planechase had Planechase symbols on it. Doesn't make them any less spoilery.
Really...? So the :1mana::symg: Answer to BSA, BM Dragon, Malakir Bloodwitch, Vampire Nighthawk, Vampire Nocturnus and any other Pain in the @zz flier is Meh...?
