Where it came from
Lingering Souls was originally released in the 2012 Dark Ascension expansion, designed to evoke the gothic horror setting of Innistrad. As a sorcery that creates two 1/1 Spirit creature tokens with flying, it featured the versatile 'flashback' mechanic, allowing players to cast it a second time from the graveyard. This design made it a staple in white-black token decks and control archetypes, offering significant value and resilience in competitive play.
The 2017 Modern Masters printing features updated artwork by Nils Hamm, who brought his signature painterly, ethereal style to the card. By this point in its lifecycle, the card had solidified its reputation as a powerhouse in the Modern format, particularly within the Junk and Abzan deck archetypes. The reprint provided players with a fresh aesthetic interpretation of the lingering spirits theme while maintaining the card's functional identity as a cornerstone of graveyard-centric strategy.
