Oh. There's the sea god.

She's beautiful.

someone else read this as Elder Deep-Fried?

I like the theme of fluid mana cost on the fat-fat-fatties. It makes Eldrazi feel big and menacing, but does not insist that you play a ramp strategy. Kinda seems like it should have the type Elder if that is its name.

I would worship her. Sorry Gitrog, but you just got replaced.

Read it as Elder Deep-Fried Fiend. I was so confused until I re-read it

Why is it not Elder Eldrazi Octopus :(. Anyways interesting card, a bummer they untap at next untap step.

Excellent card. The fact that it has Flash AND Emerge makes it amazing (sac/cast in response to removal)

I love that this card has a four, five, six, seven, and eight. That is the kind of detail I expect on my octopodes.

Flash really does help Emerge. Funny creature but its abiltiy seems alright, nothing splashy

They even did the art right. Four victims.

The key to survival on Innistrad: running away a lot.

So my grixis control still runs gurmag angler and I like this as my oh that's cute you're killing gurmag im blowing it up in response to play an even bigger fish and you can't do things anymore. It'll become grixis sea monsters

Maybe because it was an octopus I misread its name as "Elder Deep-Fried". Would it be tasty?

Flavorwise, Did we have an octopus in original Innistrad that became this creature?

I see only three?

1 Octopus
2 casting costs
3 victims
4 targets
5 power
6 toughness
7 emerge cmc
8 regular cmc

Just imagine if this had happened to Lorthos.

if that "tap 4 things" was a ETB instead of a "when you cast" this would be crazy bananas with Eldrazi Displacer

I'm sad.
lol

I'm fairly certain the tentacle in the background is holding a body. I circled it on the image below my post. Maybe not, and they just did this theme:

i don't know why people think this should have "elder" as a creature type. elder is simply an adjective describing the deep-fiend. adding elder would be superfluous, there is no need to differentiate it from other octopi creatures...it's not even legendary.
