Where it came from
Muck Rats was released in 1998 as part of the Portal Second Age expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. This set was designed specifically for newer players, utilizing simplified mechanics and a streamlined rules engine to make the game more accessible compared to the complexity of the core sets available at the time.
The card features an illustration by Jeff Miracola, an artist known for his contributions to the game during the late 1990s. The artwork depicts the creatures in a gritty, swamp-like environment, fitting the thematic tone of the black card color in the Magic: The Gathering universe. While the card is not considered a competitive staple, it remains a notable piece of the Portal era design philosophy, which prioritized atmospheric storytelling through card art and flavor text.
