If your doing a 2v2, and you and your buddy both have merfolk decks, you would rather have Lord of Atlantis.

Bazinga, you can come up with a situation that voids the strictly better theory for any case.

Again, more people who don't understand what the word "strictly" means when they say "strictly better". This is not strictly better than Lord of Atlantis. It is generally going to be better, but not always. As TheWrathofShane said, in team games where your teammates have merfolk and your opponents do not, this is not better than Lord of Atlantis. Or say that you need to Pthisis your opponent's Coralhelm Commander. Lord of Atlantis on your side would gain you more life. Or if your opponent is about to get the mana to activate Frostwind Invoker and the only other creature you have is Intrepid Hero. Lord of Atlantis lets you kill it, this does not. Therefore, it is not strictly better. That's almost only going to apply to a complete functional reprint where the mana cost is reduced, but even then you can make a case for the cards that count colored mana symbols or some other crap. The ... (see all)

This will be the new staple for merfolk decks in the past and the future.

So this is identical to Lord of Atlantis... I guess you could run both in modern.

This card isnt as bad as u think in standard atm. Mono blue delver is a deck. So u run this with merfolk of pearld trident, delver, snap, augur, scroll, theif and phantasmal image. you get a decnt army with island walk.
