What Does Skeleton King Do?
Skeleton King is a ground-only melee Champion who collects Souls whenever nearby troops die, whether they're friendly or enemy. Those Souls gradually charge his ability, so fights happening around him passively fuel his power over time.
Once fully charged, his ability summons a group of Skeletons that charge forward toward the enemy, giving him a burst of extra pressure whenever the ability is ready to use.
Where Skeleton King Fits
He works well in decks that generate a lot of small trades near him, since every death within range speeds up his Soul collection and gets his ability ready faster.
How to Counter Skeleton King
Limiting how many troop deaths happen near him slows his Soul collection, delaying when his ability becomes available.
