this turns a land into an island, but the land keeps its other types.
sea's claim really changes the land, like zendikar's Spreading seas

I actually like Spreading Seas better. The chance to color-screw a nonblue deck is a nice (and fun) bonus.

"That land remains flooded even after Aquitect's Will has resolved."?

i just run both this and spreading seas, unblockable creatures are powerfull creatures, so its usually a good idea not to skimp on the cards that make them that way.

With merfolks that usually have Islanndwalk, or with Lord of Atlantis this one is very good card...

This card is great because it uses a token to make the target land an island, rather than enchanting it. I've found tokens much harder for players to remove than enchantments. Yes, it gives your opponent a dual land, but that only matters if they're playing blue. If you're going for mana-denial, there are better cards you should be using. This card is for facilitating your island walk, it costs one, it's hard to remove, and you get to draw a card. Uh...it's a no-brainer, folks. Great merfolk supporter

A very cheap and powerful card in a merfolk deck regarding the islandwalkers, which is, given that you bring Lord of Atlantis, every single one of them.
By the way, did you notice that it uses the same type of counters as Quicksilver Fountain does? That means this artifact might remove the flood counter added by this sorcery. It's a less important fact, though...

@FargoJake: The land would be a Swamp and an Island and would produce or but not both at once, just one mana.
Great cantrip for aggressive merfolks, plus is a merfolk spell itself and triggers Merrow Reejerey.

Upgraded version of Sea's Claim.
