Fair warning, I don't play much modern, so feedback is very much appreciated.

This isn't too far from a Bant spirits deck. Strong earlygame control T1-3 with Drogskol Captain + Mausoleum Wanderer + Rattlechains with the new Lofty Denial to boot. Aether Vial helps us fill a board very quickly, and later on Thief of Hope can help recycle our 1 and 2 drops, which is handy.

Altar's Reap + Lingering Souls is both our primary source of card draw, and our closer by going wide with multiple Drogskol Captain and Supreme Phantom. Phyrexian Rebirth makes for a flashy finisher in a board wipe. Kaya's Guile rounds out the middle and top of the curve and provides a ton of utility.

Protecting our spirits is very important. Our hexproof pieces were covered earlier, but Selfless Spirit can be great protection against boardwipes and Thief can bring it back.
