What Do Skeletons Do?

Their fragility means they're not meant to trade evenly - their value comes from cheap chip damage, distraction, or quick defensive pokes rather than sustained fighting.
Where Skeletons Fit
They're a classic cycle card, used to quickly get back to a key card in the deck, as well as a cheap distraction to briefly pull a single-target troop off course.
