There's nothing white about this, and Phantasmal Image is much better since it's so much easier to recur.

Well, I'm sorry this common isn't as good as a good rare.

For some reason I had thought you just hadn't gotten around to assigning rarities. This effect tends to only appear at rare. See Cackling Counterpart and Fated Infatuation. In fact, the only non-rare version I can see is Nemesis Trap, which is just a weird card overall. Assuming you move this to rare, where it belongs, it also compares poorly to Rite of Replication.
There's no need to be sarcastic. I'm trying to offer you constructive comments. I apologize if I've accidentally offended you.

Sorry for the sarcasm, I'll improve this and make it rare. Is it good enough to be rare as a CMC 4 Instant? Too good because of the instant speed? Not good enough because of CMC?

I still don't see how it's white, but alongside Rite of Replication, it now looks alright.

Compared with Phantasmal Image I think this should cost {2}{u} or {1}{u}{u}. Blue gets the "ghostly" flavour too - there's no need for white in the mana cost just because of the word "ghost" in the name.
