Interesting. I would expect the abilities to be the opposite. Flying is the more offensive capability, and first strike is more defensive. I assume it's this way on purpose?

I waffled on which way they should go for a while. Actually I meant for this guy to be common, since it's just keyword abilities, so I can see a differently named common with the abilities swapped. That plays into a flavor of a tribe of kinda flying fish-y merfolk that leap from the water in groups.

This is part of a bunch of experiments I'm trying with creature 'modality', building multiple 'stances' into a single card without being quite as clunky as the flip or two-side cards.

Interesting idea. Welcome to Multiverse, by the way! (I try to welcome each newcomer, but I'm really bad at remembering, so if there's anyone else reading this who I didn't welcome, then welcome to you too :) )
