Mono red with Krenko. Red makes lots of tokens and this could get nasty. Good potential.

Even the flavor-text alludes to Krenko, Mob Boss - a match made in heaven. Sacrifice the Goblin tokens to Arms Dealer when you're done.

I'm very happy about the art, combing the best of the old and new.

I loved M11. Had no qualms with M12. But I've found myself saying "welcome back!" much more often in this core set than any of its predecessors.

Very red and in-flavor. Nice to see it return.

I'd replace it with Goblin Chieftain in Krenko's deck. Good card in non-goblin decks though.

Yeah, aim them to Stuffy Doll. Would be fun limited deck.

Right now, it's only useful in multicolor decks due to the presence of Goblin Chieftain in standard.
Once he rotates out with Return to Ravnica, though, Fervor might end up taking his place (unless Ravnica brings in a suitable replacement).
Either way, Fervor is still a decent card to use; I actually ran a couple in my UR Talrand deck before I decided to switch to UW.

Fires of Yavimaya this is not, but sleep on it and you will regret it.
There is no doubt in my mind that they reprinted this to suit Krenko. Or more-so, made Krenko suit Fervor.

Can someone explain to me why this warants a rare rating but Fires of Yavimaya is uncommon? And THAT'S a card that needs to be reprinted?

Haste for all your guys for only 3 mana? I'll take a playset.

The best way to give your creatures haste, is not having to pay additional mana to their casting cost. Non-aura enchantment is the safest permanent in the game, making this a sturdy casual strategy.
@RedJaron This Fires of Yavimaya is uncommon because it is two colors, restricting the amount of decks you can play it in.
Fervor, it does what it does better than anything else, you can easily splash it, low CMC, one of my favorite cards

I can't quite see the love for this card. I get it is tricky to remove and great if multiple creatures hit play at once, but your creatures only need haste once... so if you're likely to play one per turn look at Battle Rampart it provides haste, acts a wall on a turn you don't play a creature, if your strategy is based around haste and you use a play set additional draws aren't completely wasted, defender can provide other benefits, and sacrifice is an option... yet much less loved. Am I missing something?!

This is a decent card, simple and straight-forward. And it can't bite you in the ass. But if you really have to get the tempo right away, consider Mass Hysteria, which gives haste globally but costs less.
A compromise in between for is Emblem of the Warmind, which gives the same effect as Fervor, but comes with the drawback of being much more prone to destruction since it's an aura, so its lifespan is bound to the creature of yours you enchant it with.
Running a deck? Consider Fires of Yavimaya instead, which can also be turned into a +2/+2 boost when needed.
If you're just in for the , you'll probably want to take a look at Thousand-Year Elixir instead.

Turn 1 - Goblin Arsonist (or other 1-cost goblin)
Turn 2 - Krenko's Command
Turn 3 - Fervor
Turn 4 - Krenko, tapping for 4 1/1 goblins attacking.
