Call of the Sea reads as an unwieldy way to do convoke, but not quite. It also seems weird as a blue keyword since blue is the least creature-oriented color.

That's true, but they do love to tap... Perhaps it would make more sense to bounce the creatures? That way it's strategy, hand, and far less creature oriented. I suppose I could always change it to tapping islands, but that's utterly redundant... Bouncing islands? That could work.. but it's kind of just like paying mana... Anything to do with lands won't work i don't think.

Reveal cards from hand? Shuffle cards into library? I dunno, there are already so many cards using it it's hard to think of something that would still work for all the designs... or even make sense.. including this one, it doesn't make the most sense, i've been told

needs to cost {2} or {4} not {3}

flash permanents follow the same rule as instants for this set, since disruption is pointless if you're opponent knows what you're holding.

(yes i say that knowing we have cards like Asmavati, Dream Mentor and Coastal Spy, but those can be dealt with)
