Yes! Another one of these guys. I'm building a deck with all the cheap lil buddies that have effects like this. Suppose I could make a Brawl deck with the new Rakdos Girl...
I'm thinking BR Aggro is going to be a thing. BR Burn already exists as a fringe deck and with Rakdos providing some nice new tools, I am more than willing to replace 8 mountains with dual lands and splash some nice black cards. Probably not this one, as splashing a 1 drop seems ill-advised, but certainly some others.

This new guys is worse. He return to your hand not the battlefield like the others.
Wow, what a nerf (as if champion was broken (even in standard the mardu deck was not that broken)
Well, there are times where you would want it back in your hand instead of the battlefield (Grafdigger's Cage, or to power up card that need discards, like Collective Brutality). It will probably be only playable in standard, but we don't know what synergies the next 6 sets will bring.
One important thing to note is that this can block.
However, these sort of effects have never been great, so I'm not too hyped about this card.
This and diregraf ghoul give enough one drops to make a black heavy aggro deck work though, so that's something.
This kind of works well with rix maadi reveler too since you can just discard this guy if you have to play it without the spectacle cost.
Almost a nerfed Undead Gladiator, which was heavily played in Standard. Not a cycler, but it can be recurred to cover "cycling costs" such as Tormenting Voice or Rix Maadi Reveler. I think the biggest disappointment about this card is that you can't activate it in your opponent's turn, which is dumb. Would have been a much better card. I still love the art, the name, and will most likely play it.

The nerf must be for limited. Bloodsoaked Champion was a monster in draft in my experience, that's why they raised the activation on Dread Wanderer to 2B despite it's harder condition, which this follows with a cost of 1BB to return but with a slightly easier condition than the Wanderer, though still a harder one than the Champion.
This card is fine, and is actually pretty decent. All these Spectacle cards we've seen need a cheap throw away enabler so you can swarm around blockers to pay your cheap Spectacle costs. Also, I do love this type of creature in general, as I've been known to play a Modern deck that is 4x Bad Moon, 20 Swamps, and 36 2/1s for 1.
May not be that impressive to some, but since I do have a skeleton based deck ANd a deck in which sacrificed creatures that come back are used over and over again, I am happy to see this skinny guy.
Well Sanitarium Skeleton is a common, so I would hope this is better. This is still REALLY bad. this should be an uncommon at best, it's worse than a draft card, it can't be good in draft. I don't know if I am missing something, but this seems like the worst version of this card in quite a while, and they're always trash

Worse in some ways and stronger in others. In a deck where you do a lot of discarding, he is consistant fuel as long as you can deal out damage.

As someone who's played a ***** ton of these creatures in every format since the original Brood of Cockroaches I'm telling you Reassembling Skeleton is better.
