This guy is amazing. He smashes so much face, and even has tribal support.
...also, his flavor text should be errata'd to "Good riddance, mana burn."

Great card in general, although i don't quite get why Wizards decided to print blue aggro here.
It may be a Merfolk, but it works just nicely without its tribe as well.
And it gets even better with Aphetto Alchemist and Seeker of Skybreak.
Wait until your opponent runs out of blockers, or simply give it trample to end the game.
It also synergizes with Amulet of Vigor.

EOT
*taps remaining lands*
Feels somewhat powerful. A 3 mana creature that can easily become over 10/10 in your turn. Even with just him and the lands for casting him, he becomes a 5/5 while it's your turn.
A combo could be to use lot of Merfolks that use Tap abilities along with Merrow Commerce. This would cause Wake Thrasher to be boosted even further. Then, you Fling it and win the game.

Hands down my favorite card. Combine him with a Merfolk Sovereign or Lord of Atlantis and a Spreading Seas almost guarantees an instant win.

Puresight Merrow equipped with Paradise Mantle. Not only does it make this thing as big as you want, but you can use Merrow's ability to dig through your deck for Fling at the same time.
Or for a more fair, non-infinite approach... Puresight Merrow with Banishing Knack. Clear a path for the 15/15 or whatever Thrasher to connect.

If some douchebag tries to tell you that he wants to use something other than a legendary creature for his general in Commander, respond by making this deck and making his idea look as stupid as it is.

Combine this guy with Merrow Reejerey to make some huge creatures. Even better with various other Merfolk lords down, like Lord of Atlantis, to give him evasion. Spreading Seas could be used to round out an otherwise creature heavy deck.
