About Skullbriar, the Walking Grave

Skullbriar, the Walking Grave, Legendary creature — zombie elemental, designed by Nils Hamm first released in May, 2020 in the set Commander 2011 Launch Party and was printed exactly in 6 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 125.22. It's a key card in 1 combos.

Skullbriar, the Walking Grave would be a great fit in a Golgari aggro deck that focuses on quickly building up a powerful board presence. Its ability to grow in size with each combat damage dealt makes it a formidable threat that can quickly spiral out of control. While there may be other strong options for a Golgari aggro deck, Skullbriar's unique ability to retain +1/+1 counters even when moving between zones makes it a standout choice that should definitely see play in the right deck.

Rules

09/22/11

Effects that last “for as long as that creature has a [kind of] counter on it,” such as Aven Mimeomancer’s, stop applying to Skullbriar once it leaves the battlefield. Even though Skullbriar retains the counters, it becomes a new object with no relation to its last existence in its previous zone.

09/22/11

If a card becomes a copy of Skullbriar, counters will remain on that card when it leaves the battlefield (unless it goes to your hand or library). Once it does so, it stops being a copy of Skullbriar, so those counters will cease to exist when that card next changes zones.

09/22/11

Skullbriar will get one +1/+1 counter each time it deals combat damage to a player (including you if its combat damage gets redirected), regardless of how much damage is dealt.

09/22/11

The counters that remain on Skullbriar as it changes zones aren’t “placed” on Skullbriar. Effects like Doubling Season’s and Melira, Sylvok Outcast’s won’t affect those counters.
