Wizards print good rares, players complain about cash grab. They print underwhelming rares, players complain that the cards suck. They spoil the best cards first, players complain about the insane prices of preorders. They spoil the meh cards first, players complain that this is the worst set ever.
So. I think I understand now.
As far as these forums are concerned, WotC can never do anything good because:
Card that is new and probably good = "pushed"
Card that is new and probably bad = "EDH/casual fodder"
Card that is a reprint = "lazy"
Card that is a better version of an older card = "power creep"
Card that is a weaker version of an older card = "worthless"

when are they going to do another non standard card? don't get me wrong, I like this spiketail hatchling, but now that modern is an fnm format, could we get something sweet like electrolyze, inquisition of Kozilek, or even sleight of hand?

It's not Farseek but at least it's not Call of the Conclave.
It's a good card, real nice in EDH, casual and block constructed, and may actually see play in T2 if esper slows stuff down a little more.
Would've liked Rakdos Cackler a lot more myself but it's fair and good.
Call is a MUCH, MUCH better card than Familiar. It sees play in the Bant Delver decks, and with Advent of the Wurm and Voice of Resurgence in DGM, and Trostani, a GW midrage focused on tokens is bound to appear.
Unless you're talking about the art (FNM CotC is indeed hideous), Call is a much better card than Familiar.
In other news, crazy nitwits playing dress-up have also convicted the Hamburglar, the Cookie Crisp Crook, and the Frito Bandito of sundry snack-related thefts.
Seriously, what about this strikes you as remotely worthy of discussion?

Card may not be amazing but even though its not seeing much play it may someday.

It very much looks like Isperia's personal Familiar.
Reprint Stasis!
