Does creature type updating only apply to creature cards? Could Thatcher Revolt, say, get errata'd to produce Human Peasant tokens?

I don’t know if we’ve ever errataed token creature types. Anyone aware of an example?

Beating a dead Horse here, but instead of making the card type Tribal, was it considered to just have all the creature types become subtypes that could be used on any card? That way you could still get flavor for things like Thatcher Revolt being a Human spell and the mechanics of things like Modern Masters' Rebels being able to fetch that Pacifism-like card that cost 2W that was a Rebel enchantment.

Tribal exists as a card type because the rules don’t allow different card types to have the same sub-types.

Is there a reason Red Human tokens made by Thatcher Revolt do not have Haste printed on the card? It bothers me as there isn't another situation they are made without it.

A decision has been made not to put haste on tokens with haste as it only matters (for the vast, vast majority of cases) the turn it comes into play. Tokens with text require a different art ratio and it becomes complicated to write haste (it keeps the developers from changing the card later), so the editors have decided not to.

I thought you'd like this. My FNM this week was Block Constructed, a format I have never played. So I decided to go with a deck I thought I would enjoy: a Thatcher Revolt/Goldnight Commander combo with added Snapcaster Mage goodness to flashback Thatcher Revolt. I threw in some burn spells, some more humans (Champion of the Parish is go!), and called it a deck. It was really fun to play, and I did pretty well. Thatcher Revolt; not just a limited card!

Your deck has the official “Maro thumbs up” stamp.

When you did your Topical Blend column over stage magic and the best-designed modern Magic cards, Avacyn Restored wasn't out. Now that it is, would you change your answer for Innistrad block? Maybe to Thatcher Revolt?

No. Endless Ranks of the Dead beats out Thatcher Revolt for my favorite card in the block.

Why does red Human tokens doesn't have haste written on them? There is only one card (Thatcher Revolt) making red human tokens, and it says "1/1 red Human creature tokens with haste". All the other keyword mechanics like Flying, Deathtouch, Lifelink, Infect that I can think of in recent years was written in the token.

I asked and here’s the answer. Whether or not the card is vanilla (no text) or French Vanilla (just creature keywords) affects the ratio of the art, basically the card gets more art if there’s no text box. Editing decided that since haste disappears as relevant 99.9% after the first turn (what we in design refer to as a Virtual Vanilla - see all the lingo you get in this answer) it would just treat it as a vanilla card to avoid the problem of the art having to change if development shifted the card by adding or dropping haste.

is there a card in avr that you had a hand in that you're particularily fond of?

Have I really not talked publicly enough about Thatcher Revolt? 

Is it bad I like Thatcher Revolt is because I can make jokes about Margaret Thatcher and the miner's strike?

I’ll never advocate not making jokes.

Not a question, but I just want you to know since Tumblr won't let me give you links in questions: I started a thread on reddit called "Reasons Why I Love Thatcher Revolt." Just wanted to let you know that I love this card.

As I’ve made clear it’s my favorite card in Avacyn Restored.

I pulled two Thatcher Revolts for my RGW deck at our local prerelease. On two or three occasions, it was critical to establishing early control of the board. Like other cards of its kind (Even the Odds, Join the Ranks, Raise the Alarm, etc.), it also promises to be great fun in Casual Constructed. Is there a Color Pie reason for White and Green to get the vast majority of such cards, and either way, are we likely to see more in Red, even if they have certain drawbacks compared with W & G?

The key for this being red is the temporary nature (along with haste) of the token creatures. As I love Thatcher Revolt, I’m lookking for places to use this again.
