Eternal Student, Creature — zombie warlock, designed by Ksenia Kim first released in Apr, 2026 in the set Secrets of Strixhaven.
A card like Eternal Student would fit best in a graveyard-focused midrange or Aristocrats-style deck that can self-mill or discard it early, then generate value later by exiling it to create two 1/1 flying Inkling tokens, which are excellent for sacrifice synergies, anthem effects, or planeswalker protection; it could also slot into Orzhov (white-black) token decks that care about evasive bodies. However, compared to existing cards, **Lingering Souls** is significantly better in most cases, as it produces four 1/1 flying tokens for roughly the same total mana investment and doesn’t require exiling itself immediately, while cards like **Bitterblossom**, **Ophiomancer**, or **Bloodghast** often provide more consistent or repeatable value in graveyard or token strategies. Because this card requires setup, exiles itself (limiting recursion), and only produces two small tokens for additional mana, it would likely be fringe-playable at best in competitive formats but could be solid in slower
