Spreading Seas

Blue Card Mechanics

Isn't "Harbinger of the Seas" a card that completely deviates from the range allowed for blue?The effect of "Blood Moon" is essentially land destruction, and that should be allowed because it is red. Just because Spreading Seas is in blue, allowing it to have that effect on the big picture would be an anomaly that would allow Jokulhaups and Armageddon in blue.　I'm not sure how the Council of Colors could have allowed such a card? If blue allows such a card, white and black should pass this effect before it, and if green allows it because it can, then green will be allowed to have a creature with both death touch and fighting.This card is too ridiculous.

Blue is primary in turning lands from one basic land type into another. It’s not an effect we do a lot, but when we do it, blue is the one who mostly does it. (We do let black turn lands into swamps.)

Green Transformation Limits

Is changing lands into Forests ala Spreading Seas something Green can do?

Not really.

Blood Moon Complexity

With regards to Blood Moon: why not? If the issue is one of complexity, I'd like to offer a counterpoint - Spreading Seas, a NWO common.

It’s power level not complexity that keeping it from being reprinted in Standard.

Magic Humor

Q: Why can't Spreading Seas enchant humans? A: Because no man is an island.

Ooh, Magic jokes. I’m interested in more of these.
