Liesa, Liesa, they so flying...

multimedia great feedback! All of those cards were on the maybe list for me for sure. The deck was feeling a little creature heavy.
There are a few mechanics I would like to keep though. I am using Gideon's Avenger and the Vampire Scrivener to counter up and give them life link with one of the 3 enchants I have for that. Makes them good blockers or attackers and a tempting removal burn to keep Liesa out longer. They fit in line with the punishment theme of Liesa. If I had something that did both, that would be better. If Liesa is out, each combo costs me 4 life. It is a side road I need to consider if I can get my Loyal Unicorn out and haven't found my Victory's Herald .
Also, it pains me to let go of my infi-chump blocker. Blinking Spirit is one of my favorite cards for watching peoples heads explode, it probably should have been blue, really. But I can see the sense in getting rid of a recasting creature in a Liesa deck. Good call.
What do you think of this:
- Stinging Study --> Restless Bloodseeker  Flip keep Vampire Scrivener
- Keen Duelist --> Dromoka Captain
- Orzhov Signet --> Infantry Veteran
- Inkshield --> Wedding Security
- Knight of the White Orchid --> Unholy Officiant
- Cunning Rhetoric --> Brilliant Halo keep Gideon's Avenger
- Greed --> Blinking Spirit
I appreciate the help! Cheers!

You're welcome :)
I really like the nastiness going on here, I guess I'll come up with more ideas soon. In the mean time:
Blinking Spirit is a must-include basically.
Jeweled Spirit is pretty sick with Martyr's Bond.

Thanks! Felidar Guardian is a great card, but it doesn't technically return creatures to your hand to recast them. So I would need to flicker Whitemane Lion or something like that with it to get the same effect, and at 4 mana it's a little too pricey.
I've considered cutting Ancestral Statue and Blinking Spirit for the same reason. At 4 mana, something like Dust Elemental , which returns three creatures to your hand, or Eiganjo Free-Riders , which returns a creature each turn for free, is the sort of payoff I really want.

Add: Bident of Thassa, Goblin Spymaster, Kindred Boon, Kindred Discovery, Blinking Spirit, Ashnod's Altar, Drift of Phantasms, Patriarch's Bidding, Karmic Guide, Birthing Pod, Oyobi, Who Split the Heavens, Distant Melody, Decree of Pain, Blasphemous Act, Wrath of God, Final Judgment, Descendants' Path
Drop: Drogskol Reaver, Fumiko the Lowblood, He Who Hungers, Kagemaro, First to Suffer, Petalmane Baku, Promised Kannushi, Glacial Ray, Baku Altar, Long-Forgotten Gohei
Honestly the whole arcane interplay plan may need to go, unfortunately. Compare Ribbons of the Reikai to Distant Melody or even Shamanic Revelation. Splice is such an awkward and unreliable mechanic that unless the card is excellent even without it (like Through the Breach) it's not worth trying to make it work.

Hey there! Cool deck idea! I have a few comments for you:
- Unfortunately, Brainstorm, Counterspell, and Swords to Plowshares aren't legal in Modern. While these cards aren't anywhere close to the power of the above cards, Serum Visions/Opt, Mana Leak/Remand, and Path to Exile/Condemn.
- Blinking Spirit, while hard to kill, doesn't really do anything; a 4 mana 2/2 is next to useless in Modern. Drogskol Captain, on the other hand, will give boosts to all of your other Spirits, as well as protection from removal.
- Similarly, Spectral Shepherd also doesn't do a lot; I'd take them out for 2 more Rattlechains.
- Your land base might not be a priority, but I would recommend taking out 2 Islands and 2 Plains for 4 copies of Glacial Fortress, or Tranquil Cove at the very least.
In any case, neat deck! Enjoy!

RazortoothMtg: Thank you! I had never seen Panglacial Wurm before, so I went looking and found these too:
I wouldn't have expected anything less than fantastic quotes from Ib.
Enral Thanks for the compliment and the upvote!
