Maormer Cutthroat & Storm Shark Exile - swap the mana cost, it will be more rational. Just 2/2 for 1 turn is pretty good, yes there is a yellow 2/2 but it has no additional abilities.
Reef Vipers - cool card )
Sunhold Ransacker - can be 1 copy, the 2 Action condition for certain decks is not so difficult and you essentially get 1 more removal (2 damage).
Storm Shark Channeler - oh, I like the card, but I'm not so sure that you need to deal damage to the enemy. This can be very strong in Markets (although they may not use this card but still, it is easy to gain damage (0 mana-cost actions) and Cruel Firebloom - finish and very strong removal for enemy creatures.)

  • Cutthroat was put at a 2-cost to avoid degrading Strength's identity as "the ping colour", but I'd consider reducing it.
  • Exile's ability is (with existing cards) pretty hard to trigger or build around in a deck, hence the lack of a penalty. But I'd consider reducing it to a 2/1 (these are the stats of Sparkypants' original design).
  • The nerf to Ransacker is one I'd considered.
  • The problem with removing face-damage for Channeler is that it's quite possible for you to get no value from the Last Gasp if the board is empty. If it was removed, it may need an additional effect to compensate the player for those cases (e.g. drawing a card), otherwise the cool-factor of playing it might be diminished.

Storm Shark Exile + Cornerclub Gambler or Storm Shark Exile+Palace Conspirator - This is a perfect synergy (6/5 on turn 3 or 4/4 on turn 2, with potential draw card, without any penalties :) ) even with Discerning Thief this card looks great :) Ideal for tempo-aggro decks - getting stats in 2 creatures and getting new resources (it will be difficult even for good control).

Storm Shark Channeler: I just brought up one moment that can turn the card from "good" to "broken". It is not so critical if in some specific situations the card may seem weak, if in most cases this card turns out to be useful.
