## Description

Merfolk Seastalkers is a distinct creature card within the Magic: The Gathering universe, released as part of The List series in 2024. Identified by the card number ZEN-55, this Uncommon card belongs to the blue mana color and functions as a Creature — Merfolk Scout with a mana cost of {3}{U} and a mana value of 4. The card’s abilities include Islandwalk, which prevents it from being blocked as long as the defending player controls an Island, and a activated ability that allows a player to pay {2}{U} to tap a target creature without flying. Designed by artist Eric Deschamps, this card represents a specific iteration of the Merfolk archetype for collectors of The List set. Collectors often seek out ZEN-55 to complete their The List portfolios or to appreciate the mechanical design of the Merfolk Scout. The flavor text adds narrative depth, quoting Nikou, a Joraga bard, about the ambiguous nature of these sea-dwelling creatures. Whether you are building a collection of The List releases or focusing on specific creature types like Merfolk, this card offers a tangible connection to the game's evolving landscape. The combination of Eric Deschamps' illustration and the card's strategic utility makes it a notable item for dedicated Magic: The Gathering collectors.
