    Yeah you want to use wake the dead when you cant reach the globes. It works incredibly well with the skeletons from the graveyard as they drop 1 nora when they die. So your enemy gets one nora, and you get 3 more skeletons.

    Or 6 if used two spells.
    That's sounds great.

    You should include a second boneshredder, they are just that great. I would remove 1 grekin at least. Replace spectral emmi for a tomb lord and replace skeletal raider with a skeletal lerper.

    I feel like nobody realises just how insane lerpers can be in a skeleton deck. The 88 nora for surge 2 is daunting but dear god is it worth it, i have killed shrines at full hp in 2 hits from these guys before.

    I guess Lerper is a bit too expensive for me to afford it, unless there is another easier way to get it besides from PoxBox.
    I thought Spectral Emissary would be useful because of 7 speed, Flight and 5/6 space Teleport. Though, he'd be like 90+ nora and does not do much damage.
    Also,is there a reason why Tormented Priest's base attack is Physical and not Magical or Psychic?

    I played with skellies a couple of times to find them a bit slow on PvP, but extremely effective on PvE.

    I'm guessing the autos would be:

    1x Lich King (surge skell 2)
    1x Skeleteal Lerper (surge skell 2)
    2x Tomb Lord (boost skell 2)
    2x Boneshredder (best tank in skellies)

    On the spellset:

    2x Dark rising
    1x Unholy tomb
    1x at least Sac. Altar

    the combos being

    Dark Rising plus Lich King or Lerper attack for +20 damage
    Dark Rising plus Sac. altar for a possible total of 50 damage to a single champ.

    If you want I can post my old bg, it was quite fun to play with.

    Sure anything helps I really enjoyed the rattle bones BG that focused on sacrificing weak skeletons to boost your forerunners
