Our grade: Near Mint. Pictured: this printing of the card. Every card ships triple-sleeved — a soft sleeve, a deck sleeve and a rigid top loader.
Item Description
Six power, trample and haste for three mana is the kind of stat line that makes an opponent flinch. Lightning Skelemental comes down, crashes in immediately, and if it connects with a player they discard two cards on top of taking the damage. Then, at the beginning of the end step, it sacrifices itself, a one-turn lightning strike in creature form.
That self-destruct is exactly what makes the card interesting to build around in black-red. Because it dies every time, it pairs naturally with death and sacrifice payoffs, and any way to bring it back from the graveyard lets you repeat the hit. In Commander, it's a vicious top-deck for Rakdos decks that want to empty opponents' hands, and the discard rider turns an otherwise even trade into real card advantage. Its 1 toughness makes it fragile, but against slow blockers the trample means most of that damage gets through.
This is the Modern Horizons printing, collector number 208, a non-foil rare illustrated by Nicholas Gregory. Modern Horizons was the 2019 set of brand-new cards designed specifically to enter Modern without passing through Standard, and the Skelemental's aggressive design reflects that.
