What Does Skeleton Army Do?

Skeleton Army deploys a large group of around 15 tiny ground-only melee units, each with extremely low hitpoints on their own. Their strength comes entirely from their numbers - together they deal enough combined damage to bring down even high-HP single troops quickly.

Because each Skeleton dies in a single hit, the card lives or dies by whether the opponent has an area-damage answer ready.

Where Skeleton Army Fits

It's a premier defensive answer to heavy single-target tanks, since the sheer number of attackers can overwhelm a troop before it kills more than a fraction of the swarm.

How to Counter Skeleton Army

Any splash damage spell or troop is extremely effective, since the group is packed together and a single area-damage hit can wipe out most or all of it at once.
