Wow! One of the expedition lands actually has art that actually looks like it's name. It must be a mistake!
Uh, Arid Mesa, Flooded Strand, Steam Vents, and now Misty. That makes 4.
Flooded Strand is some sort of purple waterfall. Hallowed Fountain has more fitting artwork than that one does.
It is literally a flooded strand. A Strand is any piece of land surrounding/bordering water, and each piece of land in that "waterfall" is a strand...that is flooded.
specifically a strand is a shoreline of a body of water such as a lake or river. That's not what's in the art. What's in the art is a waterfall running down a series of those floating toilet bowl island things. There is no strand in that art.
From Dictionary.com "the land bordering the sea, a lake, or a river; shore; beach" that qualifies as a strand.

that isn't any of these things. It's a waterfall cascading over floating rock. There is no beach.

you do realise that a waterfall is part of a river ? "A waterfall is a place where water flows over a vertical drop in the course of a stream or river" That is a zendikar river -all the rocky parts around it are the " land bordering the river " some parts of that land appear to be flooded.

You do realize that the first Zendikar has Islands that were floating bowls of water somehow eternally pouring into the sea, right?
I think the artist experimenting with the concept was a given when they chose to reprint these lands on a plane that fundamentally refuses to be held back by physics. It is way too late to get on one's high horse.

You seem to be missing the piece of that definition, specifically the part that calls it a shore, or beach. A strand is not any nondescript piece of land surrounding a body of water, it is very specifically the shoreline. A cliff face is not a shoreline, it's a cliff. A waterfall doesn't have a beach. In fact, in addition to dictionary.com, all of the dictionary websites listed on the front page of a quick google search add "Shore; Beach." to the end of the definition of strand. A waterfall no more has a strand than a canyon river does (except in the parts of the river that do). This art only shows the waterfall, there is no strand in this artwork.
Now if it showed the base of the waterfall with plants half submerged in water and what have you, then it would be a flooded strand; the shoreline at the base of the waterfall would be acceptable.

the new Flooded Strand is a by defination correct
It was obviously an Eldrazi Flower,
and had to be sealed away in the lone hedron shown here.
Reprint Stasis!
Control needs more love.
