Not only is it terrible, it is baffling why it is uncommon.
Black has a grand(?) tradition of horribly, costly common creatures. Bog Hoodlums, Dripping Dead, and other jank. To fit the bill, this terrible thing should have cost 5B and been common. Instead, we get a staggeringly bad uncommon that can barely do anything in Limited.

A lot of people on here apparently haven't played limited. Removal + a creature in one package is always good, especially in this block. For constructed, though, this is obviously total trash.
1.5/5

Gisa's messenger throws bones.
Geralf's Messenger explodes, then comes back to explode again.
I think we all know who the better alchemist is.

The flavor text says it all. "Choke on my bone, MTG players!"

You know what would've made sense? If it had a Skirsdag High-Priest kind of morbid effect. The effect would be that when a creature you control dies (you can make it a certain tribal, whatever), deal deal -1/-1 to a creature other than Farbog.
Well? It's throwing the bones of something dead. Would it make sense if a creature of yours didn't die before this came in as it is? I don't think so.
Either that, or make -2/-2 into -X/-X, where X = total creatures in your graveyard.
Now THAT'S bone-throwing, Gisa.

It's like something that found its way out of Homelands.

Commander Review: A bad version of Skinrender and Flametongue Kavu. FIve mana is too much for a bear with that ability. 1/5
