Pardic Firecat

Card Name Changes in Graveyard

"This card's name is Dragon's Approach in the graveyard" - There actually are two cards like this already from the Odyssey block, Diligent Farmhand counts as a Muscle Burst and Pardic Firecat counts as a Flame Burst for the purposes of those effects. I"f [card name] is in a graveyard, [other card]'s effect counts it as an [other card]"

Odyssey Card Series

Was there a Diligent Farmhand and Pardic Firecat to go with the other bursts in Odyssey?

Nope.

Cycle Completion Prospects

Hi Mark! Is it safe to assume we won't see the Pardic Firecat/Diligent Farmhand cycle completed in Standard? The people must know!

I wouldn’t hold out hope.

Kindle Mechanic Future

There's an effect that appears in Odyssey, Tempest, and Coldsnap that follows the template 'Do thing x, where x is n plus the number of cards named in all graveyards'. I love this mechanic, but I fear that NWO means that it could never reappear. Is this true? I could see the effect on Pardic Firecat and Diligent Farmhand never reappearing since it's so obtuse, but I really want the main mechanic to come back. (Maybe with flashback on it too for fun interactions)

We refer to the mechanic as Kindle based on the name of the first card to do it. I like Kindle and believe there is a good chance of it returning.

Kindle Mechanic

You like Kindle mechanic. I liked it when I first saw it back in Tempest. I liked it even more when I saw Flame Burst and its little synergy with Pardic Firecat. Any chance we could see more cards with similar mechanic and synergy?

Luckily, I too like Kindle. I’m sure we’ll see it again.

Return of Kindle Mechanic

Do you think we'll see the Kindle Mechanic again? I particularly liked the Pardic Firecat element in Odyssey and would love to see more cards in this vein.

I’m a huge fan of the Kindle mechanic (and for full disclosure also its designer) so yes, I believe it will be back one day.

Odyssey Kindle Cycle Query

In Odyssey's Kindle cycle, only Flame Burst and Muscle Burst had extra cards (Pardic Firecat and Diligent Farmhand) that boosted their effect. Why was this so?

We thought it would be fun to have a little of it but we didn’t want five cards doing it so we just kept it to red and green.
