A mercenary was just a warrior that you hired. Don't know what you're thinking of Savage.

Not a terrible one-drop, but not a special one, either.

Fissure comes from The Dark and should be reprinted. Other notable cards from The Dark that has been reprinted but IMHO could be reprinted again are: Ball Lightning, Blood Moon & Fellwar Stone.
Almost forgot such cards as: Apprentice Wizard, Ashes to Ashes, Festival, Goblin Wizard, Maze of Ith, People of the Woods, Preacher & Tormod's Crypt, which all are good cards from The Dark.

Yes, but he is coming up from behind so he has First Strike!

This must have been a superb one-drop in black decks when it came out. If you recall, almost every black card had some sort of drawback to make it weaker then the casting cost. This card gives you a 1/1 body for 1 with an ability and no drawback. 5 stars alone for that simple concept.

Bog Rats came from The Dark. Nothing shold be reprinted from The Dark. Well, maybe Uncle Istvan.

Bog Rats is better if you have a lot of the Kamigawa rats.

I though mercanaries were supposed to be fearless, ruthless, and merciless killers that spread fear and terror across the hearts of many; this guy is a puny 1/1 that crawls through walls, Why?

He is a 1/1, the guy he is attacking is probably a 1/1 solidier. Yet he is about to kill the soldier...
