Diregraf Horde is one of those cards players keep asking about. Here is, in plain words, what its official text says, the rulings published by Wizards of the Coast, and the combos players actually run.
01
Official card text
When this creature enters, create two 2/2 black Zombie creature tokens with decayed. When you do, exile up to two target cards from graveyards. (A creature with decayed can't block. When it attacks, sacrifice it at end of combat.)
How it works : Diregraf Horde
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
Decayed represents a static ability and a triggered ability. "Decayed" means "This creature can't block" and "When this creature attacks, sacrifice it at end of combat."
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
Decayed does not create any attacking requirements. You may choose not to attack with a creature that has decayed.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #3· Wizards of the Coast

No other card is named in this ruling.
- #4· Wizards of the Coast
Once a creature with decayed attacks, it will be sacrificed at end of combat, even if it no longer has decayed at that time.
