Lots of people bringing up that the murder mystery is kind of silly when there's a literal serial killer in the promo art, but literally the one thing I'm expecting to see is a scene where Massacre Girl is accused of said murders and is offended that anyone would accuse her of such amateurish work, so she decides to find the killer herself to show them what murder is supposed to look like. Like...

Massacre Girl: If you need to interrogate me about it, clearly it wasn't me. When I kill a mf everyone immediately knows it was me that did it, because I have some actual standards

Aurelia: The Rakdos are evil, filthy, disgusting perverts!

Also Aurelia: *shows up at an important meeting walking Massacre Girl on a chain leash*

"'Did I do it?' You'll have to be more specific."

Very gay for the new Secret Lair arts of Massacre Girl and Teysa Karlov. Very gay indeed. Teysa in particular has such dom energy, I'd hump her leg for real for real .

I think this image says a lot about what people are thinking (im people)

Massacre Girl continues to be one of the best mtg designs, love this scary lady (who definitely didn't do anything wrong)

What should I do today?

Massacre Girl had been enjoying her infamy after the case of her assassination attempt on Aurelia had been made public. The fact that it was done under the influence of a Selesnya mind-control pollen was kept off the official record, and so the rumors abounded as to who had ordered a hit out on the warleader and why. Massacre Girl did nothing to quash these rumors, as they brought her lots of attention from Rakdos cultists and plenty of new clients for her services.

Some in her guild had even put her name up for taking over Judith's place as Rakdos' right hand, but Massacre Girl never gave it any serious thought. She liked her current line of work, and even among the Cult of Rakdos, leadership positions came with politics and blood-red tape that she wasn't interested in tangling with.

With all her professional success, she couldn't help but feel like her private life was lacking. Massacre Girl had never had a large circle of friends. She liked most of her guild mates, but she wasn't close with many. Etrata was nice, but she was busier than ever helping that detective Proft out in between her usual work. Yep, Massacre Girl's life was moments of high exhilaration followed by long stretches of boredom. During these stretches, Massacre Girl's mind often wandered back to that day when she had been led into Vitu-Ghazi on a leash. That had been an interesting experience to be sure. Massacre Girl didn't indulge in the lustful side of Rakdos' tenets as much as the Wrathful ones, but if she felt safe and secure, she could see herself enjoying the experience in the right place with the right person. Inside a killer tree with all of Ravnica's guildleaders was definitely not the right place, and Aurelia obviously wasn't the right person. Still, Massacre Girl could admire a woman with a body count almost as high as her own. "I wonder what she's up to these days?" Massacre Girl found herself asking aloud, leaning back on her ripped-up couch. She picked up a bloody newspaper that she'd picked up from her latest kill and skimmed the headlines. The Azorius were debating some new law about interplanar tariffs (yawn). An Izzet laboratory exploded (What a shocker). The Boros' Parhelion II was fully operational again after sustaining heavy damage in the Phyrexian invasion. It would be docked a few more days before returning to its place in the skies.

"Hmmmm." Massacre Girl fiddled with a dagger as she pondered the news. Ever since she was a young girl, the Parhelion had loomed overhead as a sign of the Boros Legion's authority and strength. And now, Massacre Girl decided she was going to break in for shits and giggles.

WotC PLZ DONT KILL TEYSA FOR REALS I’D CRY

So excited to play my Massacre Girl, Known Killer deck. Here's hoping i pull her at prerelease because i have the rest of the deck already built!!

I have a deep love for the original Massacre Girl, she's such a unique commander and the best deck I've ever built. After her, my friends stopped seeing me as a newbie player hehehe

Known Killer is actually much more of a conventional commander than her original. Trading a board wipe in the command zone for a slower, creeping wave of -1/-1s to draw cards off of. But they share enough in common that about a third of the cards are straight from the previous deck.

You can check out the full deck here! :D
