Where it came from
Murder is a foundational removal spell in Magic: The Gathering, originally debuting in the 2013 core set. The version designated as M20-109 was released in the Core Set 2020, serving as a functional reprint that maintains the card's role as a straightforward, unconditional way to destroy a target creature for three black mana. It remains a staple in both Limited environments and budget-friendly Constructed decks for its simplicity and reliability.
The art for this iteration was created by Greg Staples, who has contributed extensively to the game's visual identity. His illustration captures the dark, visceral nature of the spell, focusing on the abrupt finality of the effect. Within the broader context of The List—a curated collection of reprints appearing in Set Boosters—this card serves as a reminder of how core mechanics evolve while retaining their core utility through consistent, recognizable design.
