I love it. The first strike mode is medium, but not unusable. I really like its second ability to keep it alive and gives white a decent discard outlet. I'm hoping cards like this signal more karmic guide or Reveillark effects for future sets.
-edit- I known that seasoned hallowblade has the better typing and a similar type of effect, but I want more of these lol. a part of me feels the first strike mode is what allows it to compete with hallowblade, since I might not always want to discard a card to win a trade
I think this is just on the outside looking in with W 2s so stacked now, but I like that it’s strong vs deluge, balance, ugin, and upheaval in addition to your more standard wrath of god kind of stuff.

I primarily play limited, so most of my spoiler season comments view cards through that lens.
1W
Creature - Spirit
W, Exile three cards from your graveyard: Fleeting Spirit gains first strike until end of turn.
Discard a card: Exile Fleeting Spirit. Return it to the battlefield under its owner's control at the beginning of the next end step.
3/1

I think this could be a tier 2 2cmc in the cube, likely close to Remorseful Cleric, Seasoned Hallowblade and Imposing Sovereign. Thoughts?
