Not seeing the Green. Definitely White or Blue, Blue or Black, or even Blue or Red. Maybe the cost/power ratio? Anymore two of ANY colors easily justifies a 2-cost 2/2 plus a couple abilities but back then, maybe not so much? Merfolk are also well known for flying now a days. Again, maybe back then it wasn't the case.

Shroud might be a more color appropriate choice today. Maybe even a little card draw?

@Dr. Pingas
Eventide had Green or Blue Merfolks called Selkies.

But it might be coming soon. As BlackFlame mentioned, there is a new planewalker in the lore from the new DotPW game called Kiora Atua. She is a Green or Blue Merfolk associated with large creatures. (Think Quest for Ula's Temple)

This is possibly the best two-drop flyer in the game. Kor Skyfisher is obviously better with landfall or comes into play effects, but few things beat the simplicity and value of this card.
Edit: Whoops, forgot about the strictly better (but not by much) Azorius First-Wing.

I like this cycle very much because it allows you to build red/blue or green/blue or even red/green/blue merfolk decks, and don't forget Ceta Disciple! :) However, if you don't exploit the creature types and its blocking ability, it's a worse attacker than Jhessian Infiltrator.. Oh, and nice artwork! :)

The first wing isn't better. He can't be enchanted with say, rancor, that you can slap on this babe and have her swinging for 4 or 6 without losing card advantage. She counts towards both Elf and Merfolk types, both running some pretty crazy lords out there. Also, your changellings happen to be Mutant Ninja Turtles and Vampire Samurai Knights.

"They said i could be anything....
so I became a Skyfolk Merfolk kinda flying elf."

What about the flavor text:
"The grace of the forest and the spirit of the sea" ... IN THE SKIES!

Incredible artwork, and still a very solid card even today. I still play three in my G/U Deck. Actually I began magic buying a Theme Deck from apocalypse that featured it on the box. Wizards should reprint it, especially with return to ravnica comming. I imagine it being buddy with Coiling Oracle. If there could be a Snake Elf Druid, why not an Elf Merfolk
