Or, to keep with standard designed guidelines, this should be reprinted with a different name. It seems an awesome card that doesn't have to be silver-bordered. It's much less silly than many black-bordered cards :)
Perhaps "Barren Squirrel" or "Squirrel Glory" in homage to The Cheese Stands Alone/Barren Glory? :)
Alternatively, it could be a creature:
I agree that form of the squirrel doesnt have to be a silver bordered card, it is a really cool card many players would like to build decks around with.
Thanks. Yeah, exactly. Except that I don't think wizards allow black/silver reprints, so there's a simple "not tournament legal" flag on silver cards. (I suppose they may be able to bend the rule if they want to, "form of the squirrel" is not too silly a name for black-border, but I expect they don't want to.)
It hasnt happened yet so its not really a rule, because think about the reprints so far, they really couldnt name a black bordered card "The cheese stands alone", so the case hasnt really come up yet, the flavor of this card is so evocative that i think if Wizards ever did put this in black border, it would be on the same name. Wizard's policy can be taken also from the point of view of their reprint policy, newest reprint sets the rules for constructed play, be it formats or wording.
