they did this one to spite Rata specifically, btw
Literally my first thought when reading the title of the article 🤣
imagine seeing 3x Skull Servant in every decklist just for using Skeletal Swarm. I want that world.
After 20+ years they remembered Fushioh Richie
The Trap helps to justify Baron Wight’s place in the Deck but right now the number of valid targets is still only 9 at most so hopefully we get more Wight monsters treated as Skull Servant in the GY.
The Spell is an automatic -2 with it only being -1 with setup. Even though Zombies want to be in the GY anyway for their plays it is still remiss to give up hand advantage while doing so.
Since Halloween season is already over I imagine this will be the last wave of support for them for a while.
