About Phantasmal Sphere

Phantasmal Sphere, Creature — illusion, designed by Mark Tedin first released in Jun, 1996 in the set Alliances. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of C$ 0.42.

Phantasmal Sphere would fit well in a blue tempo or control deck that focuses on generating value from incremental advantages while maintaining board presence, as its ability to create flying tokens for your opponent can be mitigated through careful play. However, there are arguably better options like Tireless Tracker or Sage of Fables, which provide more consistent value and do not require sacrificing themselves to maintain their presence. While Phantasmal Sphere has a unique and interesting mechanic, its reliance on upkeep costs and potential for giving your opponent a creature may limit its competitive viability, suggesting it may not see widespread play in favor of more reliable alternatives.
