Deck {W}{U}:

A fun to navigate midrange Spirit deck with a lot of synergy that makes use of your graveyard with disturb and flashback mechanics.

Swing in with big attacks, gain life and disrupt your opponent in the early game using creatures that cost 2 mana or less (Dorothea, Vengeful Victim  ,Lunarch Veteran  ,Dennick, Pious Apprentice   and Malevolent Hermit  ) whilst using The Restoration of Eiganjo   to recycle these pieces back onto the battlefield for the mid game. Dreamshackle Geist gives you a very effective disruption/tempo ability that can cripple your opponents board state as you strengthen your own with +1/+1 anthem effects using Patrician Geist. Fortify either of those abilities or effects by copying and mirroring these creatures using Mirrorhall Mimic   and enchantment Ghastly Mimicry  .

Creatures:

• Lunarch Veteran   (conditional life gain. Disturb: conditional life gain). The (ETB/LTB) life gain effect of this card can get very significant over time especially when your creatures are enchanted with token generating effects.
• Dennick, Pious Apprentice   (lifelink, graveyards gain hexproof. Disturb: flying, conditional Clue token generator). Very effective way to disrupt any graveyard interaction and synergy your opponents deck may use as well as protecting your own disturb and flashback spells from getting exiled.
• Dorothea, Vengeful Victim   (flying. Disturb: 4/4 Spirit token generator). A great mana efficient card to recycle with The Restoration of Eiganjo  . No one likes to see a 2 mana 4/4 flyer being cast, turn after turn. With a full playset (4) in the deck this can happen with regularity.
• Malevolent Hermit   (activated ability: conditional counter spell. Disturb: creature spells can’t be countered). A highly disruptive turn 3 play (leaving 1 blue mana untapped) that usually steers your opponent to respond on their next turn with a creature spell to avoid the activated ability counter spell. This can work out favorably if Dreamshackle Geist is soon to be in play…
• Dreamshackle Geist (flying, tap a creature or keep a tapped creature tapped until your next turn). Highly disruptive tap-effect card that impacts your opponents creatures on the battlefield. With multiple on the battlefield this can be crippling to your opponents defenses.
• Patrician Geist (+1/+1 anthem effect, cost reduction for disturb and flashback spells in your graveyard)
• Mirrorhall Mimic   (copy the most valued creature on the battlefield- you own or your opponents). Patrician Geist, Dreamshackle Geist and Malevolent Hermit   are all excellent candidates to copy from your own deck as they extend your decks fundamentals -anthem and disruption effects- when needed.

Enchantment:

• The Restoration of Eiganjo  : an excellent support card for the deck as it ramps your land count to help pay for the more demanding disturb costs for your Spirits, allows you to bring back creatures (Lunarch Veteran  , Dennick, Pious Apprentice  , Dorothea, Vengeful Victim  , Malevolent Hermit  ) from your graveyard back onto the battlefield and finally a respectable 3/4 creature with vigilance that generates 1/1 Spirit tokens (Architect of Restoration  ). With at least one Patrician Geist on the battle field these tokens enter the battlefield as 2/2 creatures.

Spells:

• Loran's Escape (protect your most valued creature on the battlefield and enchanted creatures via hexproof and indestructible, scry 1)
• Faithful Mending. (draw 2 cards/discard 2 cards- strategically discard 2 disturb/flashback cards into your graveyard for your next turn, gain 2 life)
• Fateful Absence (creature/planeswalker removal)
