I'm sorry, I don't get it. Why make a big stink over this card. I mean, this first appeared in alpha. Albiet different colors, Serra Angel and Sengir Vampire cost the same and are way better.

A lot of people play blue decks without a lot of creatures, but every deck should have at least a few creatures in there just in case. This is a good all-purpose creature to go for the final kill or for defense until you pull out whatever trick you have up your sleeve.

Air Elemental is decent, but certainly not great. As noted above, other creatures, like Sengir Vampire and Serra Angel, have the same converted mana cost, yet they have a special ability.

Air elemental is decent. Sengir Vampire and Serra Angel have the exact same mana cost but they have an ability.

You guys are overating this card. A simple 4/4 creature... so easy to kill with so many cards. And flying? Who cares! Any half-decent deck has at least a few cards with flying, unless it's mono-green.

The mana cost is good, but there are many better cards, to have a stock full of these things are good, but having it shouldn't make you arrogant,to fear this card is dumb, to fear akroma or phage is understandable, since those two cards are some of the best cards I have ever seen! If you get life taken from you from this card and you fear it because of that reason then you will easily get beaten. This card is not immensely powerful, it may look it but it is not, it is only a 4/4!

This card rocks! ideal for most decks! but tricky if you don't have the right manna...

This card is so rare and powerful that I fear those that hold it in there deck. I have seen this card many times and it is immensely powerful.Idaho may be a small state with a small population but the state has some of the greatest duelists I have ever seen. I have battled some of the best in Tournaments and I have never lost but an opponent with that card has a small chance of taking out some of my life.

Awesome card. I expected the card to be in poorer condition and show up later. Troll and Toad mailed it in 4 days and it was in excellent shape. I will deffinitely be ordering from them in the future for all my singles needs.

This is an excellent card to own in your collection. It is strong in both the attack and defense, and the flying ability sure helps. Plus, the mana cost is not very expensive.

Air Elemental is an all-around good creature. It has a relatively cheap casting cost for its size. It also flies which can't hurt, although you shouldn't have a great need for flying creatures if you're using blue.
