I will just go with Severed Legion for 3 and skip the whole Soulshift. Wouldn't have been quite as insultingly bad at a 4 CMC

In the art, it's vomiting at its own terribleness. It's so bad it's vomiting from every orifice, and growing bonus orifices for extra emphasis.

Soulshift would be semi-useful if there were more spirits to use it on.

At a CMC of 4 it would be pretty sweet. At 5 an interesting draftable card. At 6 it's campfire fuel.

6 mana to return a creature from the grave, with a quick 2/2 with Fear in the mean time? Hmmmmmmmm...NOPE. NOT WORTH IT! Guess you can just sit in the grave and rot, CmC >= 5 mana card. I do not love you enough to even touch that awful card.

A solid contender for the title of Worst Black Creature Ever. Seriously, Chimney Imp is better. And more hilarious.

The cmc had to have been a last minute change. Someone must have called after playtesting and complained that crawling filth was too strong at 5 cmc, being able to return itself to hand.
But this combo is nothing new, even back then. Gravedigger is a much older card and can do the above as well, for 2 less mana.
I guess R&D got chewed out really bad after mirrodin, so they toned everything down to much.

I think what occurred with Soulshift is that they needed creatures that naturally climb up the CMC chain, but card advantage has to also be worth {1} or so, but then they make 4-5 guys who all belong at 4-5 CMC; so some get boosted more or less.
