Deck Description

This is a blue white deck which is suitable for casual play in MTGO.

I find that removing creatures is less effective than simply pacifying or arresting them given the amount of recursion these days. It is also critical to have unblockables.

This deck is fairly cheap and may take some time to learn to play.

The synergy between spirits gives it it's name.

Update: I've created a newer version which emphasizes offense and seems stronger.

Main Deck
2x Arrest
4x Azorius Guildgate
4x Bonds of Faith
4x Drogskol Captain
2x Elixir of Immortality
4x Invisible Stalker
10x Island
4x Kraken Hatchling
4x Oblivion Ring
10x Plains
4x Ring of Evos Isle
2x Safe Passage
2x Sleep
4x Soulsworn Spirit

The Ring of Evos Isle quickly boosts any blue creature.

Deck discussion for School Spirit

I would definitely put Detention Spheres if that's the direction you want to go. Also, feelings of dread would be better than just chump blockers like hover barrier and azorius arrester.

Although the MTGO version of Detention Sphere is $1.00, the paper version is much more. I'm not sure if I would get much more utility out of it than the Oblivion Rings I already own. As for the Azorius Arrester, it often does a few points of damage at some point during the round and can benefit from the Trepanation blade better than Feelings of Dread. Some of my earlier decks stalled because of the over-emphasis on defense and the lack of offense.

This deck could really use some Dungeon Geists and Midnight Hauntings to go with the Drogskol Captains. Feeling of Dread is also a good suggestoon. Cool deck :)
