You can mill, but that doesn't hit the cards already in hand. Even if you do both, they might be drawing from the void.Jay Treathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09428861685923241850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5479847193762153273.post-50905049683824916942018-11-07T13:18:10.999-05:002018-11-07T13:18:10.999-05:00Though I should add this is a specific function of...Though I should add this is a specific function of the kinds of synergies that abuse Echo cards (Crown of Poss/Dark Return/Second Sight), and not inherent to the mechanic itself.Jenesishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05356037137564501914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5479847193762153273.post-22397470008591552452018-11-07T13:15:39.305-05:002018-11-07T13:15:39.305-05:00Flashback exiles the card on the second cast, echo...Flashback exiles the card on the second cast, echo doesn't have any built-in limiter to the number of times you can play it.<br /><br />Personally, I hate playing against it. It's all the unfun repetitiveness of Dredge-as-intended, except your recursion gives permanent buffs and there are even fewer ways to interact with it (silence and voidbound, iirc).Jenesishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05356037137564501914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5479847193762153273.post-2881400597411532262018-11-06T21:40:05.255-05:002018-11-06T21:40:05.255-05:00Yeah, echo is Eternal's flashback.

It's cleaner and more interactive, but locking both costs to be the same limits the variables.<br />Even so, that makes me think echo might have more space than I was thinking.Jay Treathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09428861685923241850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5479847193762153273.post-71658479713197061282018-11-06T18:04:12.838-05:002018-11-06T18:04:12.838-05:00Echo and Flashback share a lot of DNA to me.

I could imagine a variant like jumpstart that turns a card in your hand into a copy of a card, or turns the top sigil in your deck into a copy of the card when drawn/played.Wobbleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11494097707732649864noreply@blogger.com
