Merfolk

Huh. So "Landfall - unblockable" with a side order of mana washing.
Interesting.
See Pyrrau Fortraiser.
Heh :) merfolk mirror match with the board-symmetrical Lord of Atlantis must have been a big problem in mtg's early days (well bigger than now anywhoo)
This card feels cool the moment you consider the mirror match
six would be more appropriate i think. Blue likes stacking their hand often, so this is useless a lot after the first few turns its out, in red it is very useful because red burns out lot.
I think if this is gonna stay both red/blue it should find a way to merge both red and blue strategies
... there are white and black merfolk....
when did this happen . who did this
Six-sided die might also be more balanced in cost - it requires a bit more effort to get a minimum chance at drawing a card. Right now you can have a full hand and still get a card.
Getting even one card from this is quite good value since you are still stuck with 2-power for 2.
But this is a card that can be cast with just red mana, so something that is better when you get invested in playing cards seems more appropriate.
Judge of Currents, Hollowsage etc. What is this breaking again?
Mostly this design seems lazy. Just a bunch of abilities thrown on it, waiting what sticks. Is that what mythic rare is about? Activated lifelink?
The last ability is rather efficient, but also makes you wonder why that one over the middle ability - which is rather an outsider.
The first ability is weird both because it misses the "You may" and because it does double-duty and seems to "cheat" the other abilities. It's also just full of potential to be annoyingly oppressive.
It seems like you tried to make three activated abilities and failed at that.
I understand, i felt the same way. Up to you how to format your cards :)
extra line breaks is from incompetent layout style on this site. otherwise they look too bunched up.
