Does this card make sense?

It definitely forced me to make a double take. I assume the idea is that flying creatures can go 'stratospheric', by-passing other flying creatures.

I don't know... I get it, but it bothers my brain. Maybe this would work better with some activated abilities? Or maybe not.

As an aside, though, this is probably too expensive. At least, that's what Whispersilk Cloak leads me to believe.

Replace that second bit with 2It is unblockable" for clarity, I say. Whispersilk is burrrOken; but yes, this could probably be {2}/{2}.

Yes, the second part should definitely be "it's unblockable".

What about "Equipped creature has flying. If it has multiple instances of flying, it can't be blocked." That should technically work, even if it's irregular.

Reduced casting cost to 2. Changed to "it's unblockable instead."

Yeah, this is much more elegant and still conveys the proper flavor. Thanks.
