Where it came from
Lord Skitter's Butcher was released in the 2023 expansion Wilds of Eldraine, a set designed to evoke a fractured, darker take on classic fairy tale tropes. As an uncommon creature, it serves to reinforce the set's mechanical focus on graveyard interaction and the 'roles' mechanic, specifically utilizing the butcher’s ability to exile cards from graveyards to generate value in competitive play.
The card’s illustration was crafted by artist Leesha Hannigan, who leaned into the twisted, whimsical aesthetic central to the Eldraine setting. Her design centers on a rat-folk character, drawing on the trope of anthropomorphic vermin often found in folklore, while imbuing the figure with a distinct, unsettling professionalism that aligns with the butcher title. The artwork was well-received by players for its thematic consistency and the way it successfully translated the set's unique visual identity into a single, compact frame.
