This is pretty darn strong. We have a 3/3 for 5 with husk in Green, and that is a good creature. I don't think Husk is a keyword you can slap on vanilla creatures without increasing the cost at all or making the drawback a little stronger.

Tweak up mana cost, or lose Husk and see if there's anything else that would fit?

Yeah, playtesting revealed Husk as insanely strong (even though it doesn't look much better than Unearth on paper). Anything with an already reasonable cost is pretty crazy with it. It's why there are currently so few cards that have it even though it's awesome!

Black had no efficient way to deal with opposing Husk creatures. Here is something that adds evasion and isn't a miserable way to target husk monsters

Love the name.

Changing to smooth out B's curve at common per skeleton meeting.

Kills husk for "free", but what if the only other guy on the board is your husk guy? :)
