Council of Echoes (The Lost Caverns of Ixalan) Near Mint Foil

Echoes of the Komon Winaq

Council of Echoes is a control minded flyer that rewards patient graveyard development. Council of Echoes trades tempo for a powerful entry effect that can bounce a problematic permanent when your graveyard holds four or more permanents. Its four power allows it to close out combat after stabilizing the board and its flying body buys time for you to set up the descend condition.

In Limited and casual Constructed builds the card functions as a midrange answer tucked into a defensive shell. Council of Echoes fits into strategies that fill the yard with creatures and artifacts and then convert that resource into card advantage by returning threats or blockers to your hand. The card name reflects the set lore where the Komon Winaq consult ancestral echoes to tip the balance of skirmishes beneath the caverns.
