About this card
Mana cost: {2}{U}{B}
Type: Legendary Creature — Zombie Warrior
Whenever another Zombie you control dies, if it didn't have decayed, create a 2/2 black Zombie creature token with decayed. (It can't block. When it attacks, sacrifice it at end of combat.) At the beginning of your end step, you may sacrifice a Zombie. If you do, draw a card.
"He would have sacrificed all his candy for just one king size."
