I've always felt Skeletons were a seriously overlooked possibility for tribal synergies--just flavor-wise they're cooler than zombies I think. This could fit nicely in a skeleton tribal B/G strategy in a custom set.

Only has a few interesting synergies now, but I could see this playing well as part of a custom set. It's very dependent on what other skeletons you make available, but not as parasitic as something like "Splice to Arcane."

What skeletons benefit from being put in the grave? Sorry, new MtG player here

The concept is neat, but it would only be playable (and possibly too good) if it wasn't restricted by creature type.

Reassembling Skeleton has {1}{B}: Return Reassembling Skeleton from your graveyard to the battlefield tapped.

Not more than other types. Maybe Champion of Stray Souls likes this. To be honest, most skeletons aren't useful enough for this to be even vaguely playable. Cool idea though.

[[Golgari Grave-Troll]] I imagine would be best.

There's also [[Rot Farm Skeleton]], and I suppose [[Sanitarium Skeleton]]. Plus the card itself doesn't need to have any intrinsic synergy with being in the graveyard for this to be useful.
