There’s some real potential from doing some Ring of the Grammarian BS to existing keywords:
Icker (You may pay an additional cost to ick this spell. If it resolves, you gain a poison counter)
Sulk (If this creature does not untap during your untap step, do the following:)
Urge (honestly idk why they named it surge when this is probably a better flavor fit)
Mento (if you control a 2 liter bottle of Coke, sacrifice this)
Hate to say it, but that’s just islandwalk with more flavor
😉
Cool haha
This would make more sense as an attack trigger. "During combat" doesn't really work, you need a specific moment to trigger. There's also a window at the start of combat where there aren't any defending players, because you haven't attacked yet. You should also probably make it until end of turn, unless you're deliberately referencing [[Riding the Dilu Horse]]
You could say: "Whenever ~ attacks, if defending player controls an Island, ~ gains horsemanship until end of turn. Then if it's saddled, another target creature gains horsemanship until and of turn."
Feels like it should be a Fish or something, too?
Funny card

[[cardname]] or [[cardname|SET]] to call
Crucial points, thank you sir. Yes the horsemanship is meant to wear off at end of turn.
I thought about making it an Elemental also, but yeah maybe Fish would be better.

That name for an ability is funny. It reminds me of this custom card with ladfall.
The design seems neat, though. Might be good with new Ghonti or other commanders that want unblockable.
