But Elusive Otter is kind of a thorn in my side
Meaning, you realistically only ever want to cast Echo of Eons for its flashback cost.What this means is Echo of Eons isnt likely to see much play in ANT, but due to Burning Wish in TES it could be the next Dark Petition in the sideboard (a permanent sideboard staple)
Its a clever little spell with a lot of flexibility
Turn 1: land, Sol Ring, Semblance Anvil (pitch random artifact) Turn 2: land, Jhoira Turn 3: Silver Myr, Iron Myr Turn 4: Now you have access to eight mana (counting the anvil reduction as mana) This is not a combo keep hand, this is a mana advantage hand
As such, this card is incredibly hard to find in mint condition (only 121 copies have been recorded with a PSA 10 rating)
After all, this is a 2 mana value 4/4 creature we're talking about
