Any card with an alt casting cost is cool! Now if it only did something OTHER than creature weakening...

I love this card, if only for the fact that you are making fish vomit on your enemies to kill them.

I love it. If you get stuck with an empty graveyard, just chuck a Tombstalker to it. That'll take care of almost any creature 1.X

Can be awesome if you have a powerful card in hand. Otherwise it can be quite limiting. I prefer Sudden Death. Otherwise a good, versatile card.

Erratic Explosion Deck?
I have to give it a 5/5 for the art though, despite not being that good of a card.

I thought this card saw a lot of play, as was Shining Shoal. No?

But in any case, I love free spells. This card saved me more than a few times in particular. Early game speed (kills aggro), late game Terminate.

The art is, though...

Strictly more terrifying art than Eerie Procession.

Free spells are great with epic draw engines like Skullclamp and Necropotence. Don't have the mana? Don't worry, you won't have to have dead weight.

Does this card remind anyone else of the manga "Gyo"?

Look closely: the fish are vomiting vomit... in the shape of fish.
This is one of the strangest art pieces in Magic I've ever seen.

It DOES remind me of Gyo, now that you mention it...


Also, rocks in Demon Tribal. Once spliced Horobi's Wail onto it for killing two creatures on my opponent's turn with all my lands tapped out. That upset him.

"Okay, so now I summon a bunch of fish to vomit on your creature, thus killing it."

Not even blightsteel colossus can handle the fish vomit (as long as there's enough).

Great merciful crap. That artwork.

I'm glad I wasn't playing at all during the Kamigawa block. If I got this card in a booster pack I would have to see a psychiatrist.
