I'm a little disappointed it isn't +1/+1 counters, as when are you going to be able to bring spirit(s) out and sac it just to counter something?
After that though it is a nice take on Judge's Familiar/Cursecatcher. If spirits ever becomes a thing this will definitely be part of it. Now all we need are Lord of Atlantis style spirit lord(s).

Looks like Development really pushed for a spirit deck in standard.

So the first week was absolute crap. Then they just give us all the good stuff the next week like it's some kind of afterthought ("oh, I suppose these cards are in the set, too").

They really need to balacne things out properlly because in otheer times they spoiled all the good stuff making week 2 crap and now this became the opposite
Wait wait wait. How can anyone think wizards is "pushing for a spirits deck in standard". It was the LEAST supported tribe in SOI. And until yesterday or the day before it had really no spirits in this set in the spirits colors. No, just no. Wizards HAS however super pushed GW humans and Bant decks. If you think the bant one is coincidence, you are welcome to go reread Tamiyo and see how it is essentially tailor made for bant coco decks. It's nice to see cards like this one spoiled because maybe MAYBE spirits might actually be playable once this set is released. But then again GW got more help in this set than any other tribe so I doubt we will see much change at the top.
I keep seeing this idea. Wasn't geist of saint traft the spirit legendary creature? Am I just wrong about that? Have they said something about making another one?

Whenever a Spirit enters the battlefield under your control, Mausoleum Wanderer gets +1/+1 until the end of turn.
Sacrifice Mausoleum Wanderer: Counter target instant or sorcery spell unless its controller pays X, where X is Mausoleum Wanderer's power.
1/1
Any color can get temporary pump or counters, and this is almost like Spirit prowess. Fun and interactive.

Drogskol Captain.
It's unfortunate that they printed some wicked 3cc spirits. The 3cc spot is chock full of them. Was hoping for a new version of Traft in this block.
I guess I more meant a spirit lord that is 2 CMC.

joking aside, This card is fun. better cursecatcher in a void, but less established tribe; he is worthy of rare status.
The art looks eerily close to Torrent Elemental
FaeriesSpirits is looking to be quite the interactive tribe in the coming format.1 I'm making a ghost (spirit) deck
2 this set is going to be the next new phyrexia (of how many playable cards in all formats are being printed)
