The original version had Flying, First Strike and Bloodthirst 1 and was Blue and Red (as Fish/Sharks are almost always Blue) but I think this version is cleaner and the colours better match the abilities.

Imagine your Zeppelin being attacked by a swarm of these nasties :-)

I would be inclined to make this {2}{u}{r} rather than {2}{r}{w}, purely because of the creature type. Creature type has a large bond with mana colour: for example, Goblins need {r} even when they're smart (e.g. Slobad, Goblin Tinkerer). And the costs still work for both this and Domesticated Skyshark even if you replace {w} with {u}.

The flavour is indeed fantastic :)

That was my original thinking - re creature type/colour - I am reverting it.
