Latch Seeker vs cackling counterpart?

Deck Help forum

I'm playing a spirit deck, and while I've gotten some general suggestions, I have a questions that needs answering: Do I keep the Latch Seeker s or do I take them out and put in Cackling Counterpart ?

Deck link: I liked Drogskol, so...

I don't know. They're both good in a Spirit deck. Imagine flashing down a copy of Drogskol Captain .

But at the same, a 3/1 unblockable for 3 is really good.

But then Cackling Counterpart has flashback for the late-game, should your game ever draw out that long.

It's a tough call. I'd test out both.

I would personally go with the Cackling Counterpart because it doubles as legendary removal and has more overall utility

Cackling Counterpart can only copy a creature you control.

But it is an Instant, which is very cool.

Oh I totally misread that. But yea, copy spells can do things... However, other than Drogskol Captain or Drogskol Reaver Im not sure if anything else is worth copying. Maybe the Dungeon Geists .

Copying Dungeon Geists is just as good as anything else, I'd think.

Or, y'know, just a Spirit token. If his Spirits are being buffed, he could just use it for a 2/2 or 3/3 Flying to flash in at the end of his opponent's turn.
