I've been thinking about Echo lately. It came in dead last when players voted which of the returned keywords they like the best. So I don't think we'll see it returned soon. That's a shame, since I think Wizards could make the keyword fun, if they focused on its positive attributes, instead of make it a drawback on 80% of the echo cards printed.

Maybe if I make another core set, I'll use it as the keyword. I'm pretty sure Wizards wouldn't do that...

After seeing some of the kooky things they did with Cumulative Upkeep in Coldsnap, I absolutely believe there is design space yet to be explored in otherwise counter-intuitive and unpopular mechanics! I hadn't thought about Echo in this way but now I will be.
