This is a very "yes" card. especially if your playing goblins.

Glad to see they made it into a Goblin, it was mostly unplayable before.

Great if you did your job at swarming the field early in the game

"Creature - Ship" Yeah, that makes sense. Print that.
Wait, I have a card called "Master Farmer." Can that be "Creature - Potato"?

Time to give this a retry. Now that it's a goblin, I mean.

Flying goblins are fairly rare. Considering gobbos are also quite good at flooding the board, the Squadron should now be pretty playable.

This is arguably the best goblin with flying. Now, what about their other flying machine? How about a creature type update for THAT?

Even the tribe's best flyer was no match for the crew of the Weatherlight, though.

Scion of the Wild's ancient flying goblin ancestor.

(Right, back then it was a ship, but the the goblins on it were like "hey hold on, you do realize that this ship is not a living being and we actually are the ones flying this baby?", and word of god said it shall be a goblin from now on.)

There are a total of 12 Goblins that either have flying or can gain it themselves. Of those, only one can even come close to this thing: Boggart Sprite-Chaser. It could easily be a 2/3 flier on the second turn...with help from three of the four other colors (white is the lone holdout).

By the time you have five mana, in a goblin deck you should have a lot of creatures (Provided you haven't grenaded all of them)

What a dramatic and game changing errata...

Wizards seriously needs a reprint due to the fact that there are no versions of the card that show the errata change. -_-
