About Lingering Phantom
Lingering Phantom, Creature — spirit, designed by YW Tang first released in Apr, 2018 in the set Dominaria.
A deck that focuses on casting a high number of historic spells would benefit from including Lingering Phantom, as it provides a recurring threat and value engine. However, in a competitive environment, there may be better options such as Snapcaster Mage or Jace, Vryn's Prodigy, which offer more immediate impact or versatility. Whether Lingering Phantom sees play would depend on the specific deck strategy and meta, but it could be a fun and flavorful inclusion in a casual or themed historic spell deck.
Rules
04/27/18
A card, spell, or permanent is historic if it has the legendary supertype, the artifact card type, or the Saga subtype. Having two of those qualities doesn’t make an object more historic than another or provide an additional bonus—an object either is historic or it isn’t.
04/27/18
An ability that triggers “whenever you cast a historic spell” doesn’t trigger if a historic card is put onto the battlefield without being cast.
