Wow both of those are neat. It's cool to finally see one of Esper's "Giant creatures" hidden under the sea. One of the few big blue creatures to not carry a draw back.

Somehow... expecting this to be more.
Nine mana, won't be targeted so removing it is a pain but has so many workarounds...
The 7 power just isn't enough. Islandwalk stops stupid slow Blue board positions, sure, sure.
But it doesn't really work. You have to use the artifact nature, somehow.

LOVE Soul's Majesty. That'll definitely be making into Verdeloth EDH when it comes out.

I'm always glad to see green draw spells, although this one doesn't impress me all that much. At five mana you want to be finding your big dudes, not relying on having them already in play.

This is true but think more along the lines of having a few mana accels in play for said big creatures. Realistically I could see drawing five maybe even six cards on turn five or six with this... that's got more power then it sounds...

Soul's Majesty is great, the only trick is finding a creature that won't be promptly obliterated when I target it but still yields enough cards to be a punch in the face to my opponent.

Oversoul of Dusk maybe?

If only Progenitus could be targeted [by friendly spells]... I'd pull so many shenanigans with Soul's Majesty...

I'm with Seth - how many Big Blues have we gotten [one with each set it seems] that never get played? No horrid drawbacks or Giant chump-blockable vanilla... Finally some beef with teeth!

Agreed. And think of how fun it could be with Topan Ascetic in limited.
