Looks cool, but not common. (I know rarities don't mean the same thing in a duel deck, but still.)
More commony
Much more, but perhaps too much. See Attended Knight and Seller of Songbirds and Sandsteppe Outcast.
For some reason I thought Attendant Knight was uncommon. Adjusting.
Now it's worse than Doomed Traveler in two ways :)
Come on! This is Doomed Traveler without flying on the token. I think, converted mana cost 1 is enough.
At the current cost it could easily be a 2/2 similar to Safehold Elite.
Tukatongue Thallid color shifted to white is fine.

-> 
I think making a Cleric token is odd. It dies and is reborn as a cleric? It gives up its mission and settles down? I think making it a spirit and this a functional reprint of Doomed Traveler is fine.
Human Cleric creature token
Any reason the token should be Human Cleric? Cleric seems fine and in green we have quite a diversity of believers (Rhox, Elf, Centaur).
Do you just want to make faith seem xenophobic? I don't think that's a message we want.
The flavor was that he is replaced by the convert he makes as a missionary.
I think the Cleric part is fine. I think the Human part should go.
Making the creature types uneven will ruin the aesthetics of the card without any game play benefit.
...since when?
Soldier Tokens have always been just that. Soldier tokens. Not Human Soldiers. The more important part about this token is the Cleric part not the human part.
The game play benefits is that we can then include this card in not humanocentric sets. It also allows us to encourage more Cleric tribal in the future without specific ties to humans.
A human cleric token works just as well in a cleric tribal deck while also working in human tribal. There's no time where a cleric token can't be human. These aren't soldier tokens. It looks more aesthetically pleasing if the token matches the card exactly.
Disagree to all points.
1) This is one of two dual typed creature tokens. The other Release the Hounds makes a Hound Construct. However this card has been contended many times because and is subject to change. (Like all cards on the file)
Ignoring the dogs, we currently have the following tokens: 4/4 Flying Angel, 1/1 Cleric, 1/1 Human, X/X Elemental, 1/1 Flying Thopter, 1/1 Myr
Having a one off Human Cleric breaks a lot of the existing patterns for token making. I don't think a common warrants making a whole new token that is already on file. The other cards instances want to be humans anyways.
2) As a above, we already have a 1/1 white Cleric creature on three different cards of the file. Sanctimonious Army (((Followers of the Faith))) Arch Cathedral. There is currently no advantage to making two different Cleric tokens (nor two different Human tokens for that matter)
3) This isn't a human tribal deck. It is an Angel tribal deck. There has never been a "Human matters" card on file.
4) This is a token made on a common. What makes this different than a soldier token? What makes this different than a Cleric token for that matter?
While we are on the topic of tokens, I am not sure if we should have two different 1/1 white Creature tokens on file. I think Cleric is probably the desired one at the moment.
The 1/1 Human tokens should also become 1/1 Cleric tokens btw - no reason to have them flying around when the flavor of the card is more focussed on Cleric anyway.
I'm going to hunt that card down now. :)
Why can't the 1/1 human tokens and the 1/1 cleric tokens all become 1/1 human cleric tokens. This would reduce unnecessary extra tokens and make the token makers more streamlined.
Executive decision here. Change the tokens to Clerics. Specifying humans isn't necessary or productive.
