Viashino Type Preservation

I think people feel differently about Viashino than they do about Naga because Viashino have been in the game for so much longer. The Viashino type even predates most Cat Warriors!

Again, we’re not getting rid of Viashino. The race will still exist and appear on cards. All that’s changing is what creature type we use.

Cat Trivia

Hey Mark, could I get some belated birthday trivia on cats?

Sure. Cats was a long-running broadway musical (fourth longest on Broadway) based on a 1939 collection of poems by T.S. Eliot. Its most famous song is “Memory”. It was adapted into a movie with less successful results.Happy Birthday!
Oh wait, we’re you interested in Magic trivia? The first Cat was Savannah Lions in Alpha but it was printed as creature type Lions. The first Cat that was a Cat was Cat Warriors in Legends.

Cat Type History

You write "Cat Warriors was the first Magic card to technically have the Cat creature type". Surely its creature type at the time was Cat Warrior? I don't think Race/Class appeared until Invasion (when it appeared on a cycle of gold 2/2s), and everything before that treated the entire type line as its type (the Mirage Night Stalkers, for instance, had the creature type Night Stalker rather than the type Night and the type Stalker).

I was talking about it looking back. It’s the earliest card to be a Cat.

Sit down. I have some bad news for you.

Squirrel Rogue Concept

We've got Elephant Soldiers, Rhino Soldiers, Cat Warriors etc. Obviously we do see real animals with a degree of regularity. Why would, say, a Squirrel Rogue be such a stretch specifically?

If I thought creative would allow squirrel rogues, they’d be in the file tomorrow.
