I like this card. It's a nice defender, fine attacker into a token army, and reminds me of Mirrodin (may she rest in peace)

But the aesthetic- man. So beautiful. Blue all around, the exoticness of the striders, the lack of rules text... gorgeous. Absolutely gorgeous.

Rare to see a card so simple and beautiful that is also playable.

-sigh-
This card and I had a bit of a falling out back in Scars draft.
See, he and I had a good relationship our first go-around.
I was lookin' at him, he looked at me, we shared a smile quickly, and I picked him up at about 12th pick.
Then he came again. And again. And again.
And we were pretty happy.
Then I attacked with him for lethal against my opponent, who had a wall of defenders and one lonely Island.

"I'll block."

With two words, two things happened that day:
1. I hated this card forever.
2. I learned what "RTFC" stands for.

Our SEAstrider doesn't have Islandwalk, so it can't very well STRIDE THE FREAKIN' SEAS CAN IT.

@infernox10, Considering what the flavor text says I don't think they stride the seas all that well.
