The Flood of Mars
Oracle Text
Islandwalk (This creature can't be blocked as long as defending player controls an Island.)
Water Always Wins — Whenever this creature attacks, put a flood counter on another target creature or land. If it's a creature, it becomes a copy of this creature. If it's a land, it becomes an Island in addition to its other types.
Card Details
Set
Character Background
The Flood of Mars fits neatly into a tempo-control game plan, where every attack advances board pressure while quietly rewriting the battlefield. A 3/3 for four mana with islandwalk already asks for blue-matching support, and in any deck that can reliably turn opposing lands into Islands, it becomes a difficult-to-block threat that keeps connecting. The real power lies in Water Always Wins: each attack can either convert an enemy creature into a copy of itself, spreading the menace, or turn a land into an Island to enable future islandwalk hits and potentially soften up nonblue mana bases. In practice, this rewards evasive blue shells, token-copy synergies, and decks that protect a single attacker long enough to snowball. Pair it with proliferate or counter manipulation if you want to keep pressure mounting, and with bounce or tap effects to force through attacks while the flood counters accumulate.
