Undead Butler
{1}{B}
Creature — Zombie
Oracle Text
When this creature enters, mill three cards. (Put the top three cards of your library into your graveyard.)
When this creature dies, you may exile it. When you do, return target creature card from your graveyard to your hand.
Watch Out
ETB trigger, not a cast triggerRules Note
This card's ability triggers when it enters the battlefield, not when it's cast. Effects that double ETB triggers (like Panharmonicon) work here. Countering the spell prevents the creature from entering, so the ETB won't fire.
Exile prevents dies triggersRules Note
'Dies' means 'put into a graveyard from the battlefield.' If a creature is exiled instead of dying (Swords to Plowshares, Rest in Peace), dies triggers won't fire. Tokens do trigger 'dies' abilities briefly before ceasing to exist.
