Since I saw him yesterday I’ve been thinking about how to make a skeleton build viable.  I hope Mort is ready to get his face pounded repeatedly, because it is going to be a hobby for folks once they see him on the board.  I think he only makes it in the deck for a skeleton build and he will be the centerpiece of any such build.

Skeleton Knights + Skeleton Archers + Mort In The Middle running for his life… might be effective.  Move forward in a sort of cross.

One problem I see with such a build is that Mort doesn’t look too difficult to kill off.  His life is nice, 13, but one armor and no defense is sort of squishy for a deck centerpiece.  Perhaps giving him an intercept friend – the obnoxious dwarf defender or the gargoyle – would be ideal.  But six points + the mana is a steep price.

Heh, maybe we could make a Mort Fort.  He’ll reconstruct the bone walls, right?
