Artist: Zzzy

Card Strengths and Weaknesses:

• Strengths:

  • Skeleton Synergy: Corpses of the Lost Enhances Your Skeleton Creatures by Giving Them +1/ +0 and Haste. This can make your skeleton more threatening and allows them to attack immediately.
  • Token generation: When Corpses of the Lost Enters The Battlefield, It Creates A 2/2 Black Skeleton Pirate Creature Token, Providing You with Additional Creatures to Control.
  • Recursion: The ability to return corpses of the lost to your hand by paying 1 life at the end step if you descended in that turn can give you repeated value from the enchantment.

• Weaknesses:

  • Dependent on descending: The Recursion Ability of Corpses of the Lost is Dependent on You Descending Duration Your Turn. If you don't fulfill this condition, you won be able to return it to your hand.
  • Life Cost: Paying 1 Life to Return Corpses of the Lost Can Add Up, And If Your Life Total is Low, It May Not Be A Viable Option.

Overall Impression:
Corpses of the Lost is a versatile enchantment that boosts your skeleton creatures, generates A token, and sacrifices a form of recursion. It Encourages A Strategy Focused on Skeleton Tribal Decks, Where you can Maximize the Benefits of the +1/ +0 and Haste Granted to Your Skeletons. The Ability to Return the Enchantment to Your Hand Can Provide Long Term Value, But It Comes At The Cost of 1 Life, So Careful Management of Your Life Total Is Necessary When Using This Card.
