possibly one of the best tapdown cards of all time. 5/5

one of the very few cost-efficient spirits
this deserves recognition

The tapping effect doesn't require a tap in itself, therefore it's powerful. Besides, there's no limit to how 'few' you need to remove per use, so it's like a storage house for 'taps'.

Waxmane Baku would tap that. And that. And that too!

if it had flying like today's tapdown spirits, this would be 5/5 no doubt. not that you couldn't tap down every creature able to block anyway, and if this was this good for common, could've easily been flying at uncommon too.

My question is.... (newb at this game still) does it get a counter when i cast Lingering souls?

@EnoZero: No, because Waxmane Baku's effect cares about the type of the spell, whether it be Spirit or Arcane. Lingering Souls is just a Sorcery. Just because it puts spirits into play does not make it a Spirit spell. It would need to have Spirit or Arcane in it's type line (saying Sorcery - Spirit or Sorcery - Arcane) for the Baku's ability to trigger.
