Very unique idea. It is really difficult to make a death creature with unique ability like this imo. It is also very neat and simple. Great remake.

I imagine this as a vulture/condor that feeds on skeletons. Weak stats seems to make it balanced. But it is difficult to know how easily or how far this card can go in terms of stats with lots of skeletons. (Might need real testing)

It combos with lot of death cards so there is no problem with synergy because of the fact that this can kill skeletons of any number within just one turn. The upped one can fit into many decks easily.

Awesome art by hawanja although it does'nt really look like a bat (looks more like a flying purple squid).

Soul Catcher + Boneyard + Sprite Bat = Endless and infinite|infinite Sprite Bat

Broken imo.

It should not trigger the death effect of the skeletons it destroys, or it should not be able to use the skill more than once per turn. Then it could make more sense to me. But that's just my opinion.

[Bieber4Ever98]

It's destroy effect should not trigger death effect, othervice it could be combined with boneyards, creating infinite|infinite creature, wich is not desirable, and rather broken. Also it would end up in endless death mana combined with soul catcher.

Skeletons that are born from boneyards do not generate new skeletons upon death.

but the ton of can do many things~and the new Skull Buckler with this can meak you opponent field empty~

I might need to make the upped cost quanta as well, but as Nik_V said, most Skeletons don't create more Skeletons.  Do they even trigger death effects at all?

@Ajit: They do indeed trigger death effects. Just not that of Boneyard | Graveyard. Try with Vultures. c:
