Blue will get very little flanking, maybe a vertical cycle of French Vanilla creatures with both it AND Flying, with this being the common. ( Order would be White, Red/Green, Black, then Blue).

It would also be possible to flavour Flanking in blue as creatures/wizards manipulating time - speeding it up for themselves and/or slowing it down for opponents to allow them to be in the perfect place to strike. But that would be for a Block as it is a somewhat advanced flavour/concept.

What's wrong with advanced flavor when the mechanical implementation is so simple?

Oh there's nothing wrong with it, I just wanted to keep things fairly simple. I may use this idea on the Rare.
