Second favorite zombie lord, after Death Baron. It beats out Lord of the Undead and Cemetery Reaper now that Gravecrawler exists. Obviously Mikaeus is sweet, but for the same cost you could have 2 of these out.

EDIT: It's alright, wizards. I can wait for my 1GW Gavony Captain.
+1/+1 and vigilance to humans. I can wait...

Diregraf Captain + Grimgrin, Corpse-Born + Gravecrawler = Opponents loses X life points. X is the mana you have.
1) Put Gravecrawler on the field
2) Put Diregraf Captain on the field
3) Put Grimgrin, Corpse-Born on the field.
4) sac Gravecrawler by using Grimgrin second ability; pay and bring him back on the field. Opponent would lose 1 life point each time you bring him back.
This would be more fun if you have more than one of Diregraf Captain on the field.

Does having 2 instances of this card stack its abilities? e.g other zombies I control get +2/+2, target opponent loses 2 life when another zombie I control dies

Hi there!
I've a question about this card, and all the "while-in-battleflield-X-obtains-Y-bonus" type cards.
Let's suppose that I, owning this card and another 2/2 zombie, attack to other player. The zombie would get +1/+1, and if he doesn't block, it would get 5 damage. But the opponent blocks and DEFEATS the Captain. Does the bonus of the zombie disappears? In other words, will he get 2 or 3 damage points?
Regards, and thanks in advance :)

Compared to Falkenrath Noble, his tribal ability seems lacking. Yet it's definitely still relevant when combined with his other abilities.

@Roobre, damage is dealt all at the same time. So by the time damage is assigned, the zombie is 3/3 due to the lord, and it's at the end of the fight when the zombie gets back to be 2/2. i hope i'm clear. so basically, they will take 3.
By the way, really powerful card. Makes gravecrawler a recurring 3/2 that hurts even when it dies. They smashed my illusions deck last FNM. I hate them both.
EDIT: I'm playing zombies myself now. This is not specially good to see, unless you get to combine a couple or even three of them. I bet zombie decks will start to decrease using it. Certainly not geralf's messenger.

Question? If I add this card to my Lord of the Pit/Lord of the Undead/Grave Titan deck can I count the zombies I send to the graveyard to appease my Lord of the Pit as a Zombie killed and therefore inflict damage to my opponent?

@AxeZyllMattex: Yes, those zombies would count. Your opponent would lose life for them.
