Nightmare Beast. never thought that would be blue.
anyway, not that good. it is an original ability, however.

I like it. Timmy feels like he would like this card, but can't figure out how.
Combos with landfall, I think.

Pingas Turtle is gonna git ya!

Excuse me. This has 'Creature Type- Nightmare Turtle Beast'. Why is this not rated 5 stars?

It can be flickered to trigger landfall abilities (while many of them are likely rather useless if the turtle returns at the beginning of the end step), which will untap the exiled land and grant more mana.
As a one-drop (with different power/toughness) this could be interesting.
But like this, you better run a Ruin Ghost instead to trigger landfall.

But it's really not that good: we're talking about a 3cc 2/4 with a notable drawback (since it kicks you back one turn). It's a single costed blue creature yes, but there are other creatures at the same cost that give you a useful ability instead.

If you have some sort of board sweeper like Jokulhaups, Apocalypse or Worldslayer, this might not be a bad play.

As DarthParllax pointed out-
5/5 for the typeline.

This is going in my nightmare deck, my turtle deck, and my beast deck.
Five Stars.

One of the coolest creature types...EVER

Referenced in Mons's Goblin Waiters.

I would run this with Halimar Depths.
But its just a 2/4 for . The above strategy is probably worse then just running Sea Gate Oracle.

With an infinite sacrifice loop, it generates infinite mana. There's a use for this card...somewhere out there...

5/5. Why? Because it's a Nightmare Turtle Beast, that's why.
