"All that concerns me is the vampires' sense of smell and those freezing Nephalian nights."
Wait, what about wolves and werewolves? Are you telling me that vampires have a better sense of smell than wolves? Do you ever walk a dog? All they do is smell stuff!! Those wolves could easily detect and find the stalker.
Oh, and how about spirits? They are basically invisible too. I'm sure they could detect his presence.
Lastly, his freakin clothes and stupid hat would give him away to anyone with a sense of sight! As far as I can tell, he isn't safe from anything. Why would he not just walk about without clothing? Is he trying to trick others into thinking he is a spirit? Do the townsfolk know about this guy? Is he a local legend? What does he do in his free time? And of course, how did he obtain his powers?????
Think about it that way, it would incredibly stupid to draw an invisible man. There must be some sort of gimmick. In this case, it's freaking cold outside and he's wearing clothes just to go outside. Maybe he's sure that no one could see him. Maybe he just wants to play tricks on people.
What in gods name is up with this set? Did RnD just sit down and say "lol let's pack as many over-the-top cards as we possibly can into this one because the world ends this year anyway!"

Yes, but then dogs and wolves don't really go out of their way to make lunch of the invisible stalker.
Why would he not just walk about without clothing?
1) He already mentioned getting cold. Going naked all of the time would make things worse.
2) The artwork shows him getting out of his jacket. Maybe he's about to go to work.
edit: as an aside, the flavor text and the artwork work _brilliantly_ together. Fridge brilliance!
Ah, it does look like he is about to take off his jacket. I guess he wears his clothes to stay warm while no one is looking and then he takes them off to do his business.
I'm not so sure he is a vampire stalker, because given their sense of smell he wouldn't fare that much better than a regular human. Although maybe he could give them a nice surprise and spook them for a minute.
Their sense of smell isn't that great, actually, since they can't block him or even target him. He's just a bit of a worrywart.
Yeah I really don't know about vampires and what senses are increased, but the Anne Rice vampires are really badass. They have all of their senses super strong, probably even their photo receptors, and that is why they are so affected by sunlight.
Werewolves, or at least regular wolves, on the other hand would most assuredly be able to track this dude and kill him.

The werewolves mostly hang out outside the cities, or possibly since he's in Nephalia, there just aren't that many werewolves in that part of Innistrad.
Do the townsfolk know about this guy? Is he a local legend? What does he do in his free time? And of course, how did he obtain his powers?????
You know that he's based on The Invisible man right? So he's likely some sort of mad scientist.
The problem with defining this format by what is "fun" is that everyone seems to define fun as what they don't lose to. If you keep losing to easily answered cards, that means you should improve your deck. If you don't want to improve your deck, then you should come to peace with the idea that you are going to lose because you chose to not interact with better strategies.

Yeah I dont think theres many werewolves hanging around Nephalia. Im pretty sure Stormkirk noble is pictured walking through Nephalia though.
Wolves might be able to smell him, but they wont realize whats going on. Vampires might have a worse sense of smell, but they would be smart enough to figure out what was going on if Invisible Stalker is near them.
Yes, he's a local legend. He's only known to take his clothes off before he goes into the Ladies' Lockerroom. Nobody knows what he does in there because he's invisible, but it's almost certainly tons of masturbating.
I believe it is because he lives in a city of vampires. And wolves and werewolves are in the forest. From the background you can tell that he is in the city.
Rather than have a man who is permanently invisible, it would prove more plausible if the man had the power to cloak himself. The big differences being that he can still see himself, and can wear clothes and carry weapons without revealing his whereabouts.

Big Thanks to Xeno for sig art <3.
Also, he's not worried about the werewolves' sense of smell because he's not invisibly stalking werewolves. He's invisibly stalking vampires.

Nope, the book line got cancelled after Scars.

I thought he was worried about "those freezing Nephalian nights" because the cold air would cause his breath to become visible.

It's friggin' freezing outside bro.
Sometimes.
Oh, they know about him alright.

See previous answer.
Guard 1: There goes a sword floating down the street!
Guard 2: Well, he's unblockable, so ignore it.
That is mad funny dude.

Sadly, with good reason. Quest for Karn and Teeth of Akoum were absolutely atrocious.
And yeah, this is by far one of my favourite cards, flavour-wise, in the whole set.
