Shadow Summoning
Oracle Text
Create two tapped 1/1 white Spirit creature tokens with flying.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Shadow Summoning is a neat Orzhov-flavored token spell that rewards a patient, board-centric plan rather than raw speed. In The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth, its name and effect evoke the eerie ability to call forth spectral allies, and that translates cleanly into Magic as two tapped 1/1 white Spirits with flying—small bodies, but excellent for pressuring planeswalkers, chipping in damage, or holding up a defensive air force. It fits best in tempo and control decks that want to spend a turn developing the board while preserving mana efficiency, especially if you can turn expendable fliers into later value. Strong synergies include anthem effects, sacrifice outlets, and cards that care about tokens or creatures entering the battlefield; it also works well with reanimation or recursion themes if your deck wants bodies to fuel convoke-like payoffs or sacrifice-based removal. Because the tokens enter tapped, plan ahead so they can stabilize the sky on the following turn.
