Chop It Like It's Hot!
Introducing Lord Skitter's Butcher, the crafty creature from the Wilds of Eldraine that brings a slice of strategy and a dash of chaos to your Magic: The Gathering deck. With a mana cost of {2}{B}, this Uncommon Rat Peasant packs a clever ability that allows you to create a 1/1 Rat creature token upon entering the battlefield. Use this little critter as a shield or to swarm your opponent while making clever use of your resources!
But that’s not all—when Lord Skitter does his work, you can sacrifice another creature to dig deeper into your deck. If you do, you get to scry 2, then draw a card, enhancing your card advantage while keeping your options open. This makes him a perfect partner for cards like Golgari Findbroker or Scavenging Ooze, which can help you recycle fallen allies for extra value. Get ready to take your opponents by surprise as you unleash this culinary critter on the battlefield!
