Where it came from
Neko-te was released in 2005 as part of the Betrayers of Kamigawa expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Set in a world heavily inspired by Japanese folklore and mythology, the card represents a specialized weapon from the Kamigawan culture. It was designed to emphasize the theme of creature interaction, specifically the ability to tap down or disable opponents' creatures through combat, reflecting the tactical nature of the set's martial-themed artifacts.
The card’s illustration was created by artist Heather Hudson, who provided a detailed depiction of the bladed hand weapon consistent with the aesthetic of the Kamigawa block. The design aimed to capture the essence of a tactical, specialized tool of stealth and control. While not a centerpiece of tournament play, the card is frequently recognized by collectors for its flavorful design and its adherence to the distinct, mythological visual identity that defined the Kamigawa expansion.
