3/5
Why? It's a nice tanky creature with good evasion and no real downside, something that Blue definitely needs. The only problem I have with it is that it isn't... how shall I put this...
Sphinx-y enough.
The creature type is really the ONLY problem I have with this card, and that's because I'm a Vorthos, through and through.
Maybe I'm not thinking about this enough, though. Maybe this guy's riddle is "How much face can a single blue creature beat?"

The riddle it asks is "do you even lift?"

Ring of Evos Isle works well with this to give him hexproof and make him even bigger since you should have the extra mana for the ring by now. Overall I love this card. It's efficient and has a powerful feel, especially for blue. 4/5

You may say its boring, but look at air elemental, same thing, just not as strong. Blue is the only colour thats supposed to be able to compete with green for massive things of awesomeness (Tidal Kraken, Leviathan, This guy) The blue creature may not be as big, but they have evasion most of the time (flying unblockable etc) This is a freaking awesome card for 7 mana, and it brings back some old school blue beatdown. 5/5
EDIT:
Also if your worried about the casting cost, brainstorm or ponder so hes on top of your library, and use djinn of wishes, that card was put there for a reason, an 8/7 with no drawback for 4 mana? I'll take that any day.

Excellent cost for what it does. 8/7 with flying? For seven? It's a great closer for any blue control deck.

I don't care that he's French vanilla. I love muscle in blue. He makes Mahamoti Djinn obsolete (if he wasn't already that way) and I'm sure he will be a fine finisher for control decks. The Timmy in me just won't let me not be a fan of this card; creatures like this are made for players like me.

I have no idea what everyone is talking about. At the prerelease this weekend this was what gave me all my losses. It might be vanilla but it beats down hard, and sometimes thats all you need to win.
