    Create two 2/2 colorless Wizard Soldier creature tokens named Cadet. If this spell was cast from a graveyard, put a +1/+1 counter on each of them for every three cards in your graveyard. Flashback 6 generic mana blue mana black mana (You may cast this card from your graveyard for its flashback cost. Then exile it.)

    Rulings (6)

    You can cast a spell using flashback even if it was somehow put into your graveyard without having been cast.

    "Flashback [cost]" means "You may cast this card from your graveyard if the resulting spell is an instant or sorcery spell by paying [cost] rather than paying its mana cost" and "If the flashback cost was paid, exile this card instead of putting it anywhere else any time it would leave the stack."

    A spell cast using flashback will always be exiled afterward, whether it resolves, is countered, or leaves the stack in some other way.
