Echo of the Didact
Didact Echo is a pragmatic inclusion for blue midrange decks that want a late game card draw and a potential aerial threat. Didact Echo enters the battlefield and immediately replaces itself by drawing a card. In the Light Play Foil finish the art picks up subtle shine which highlights the spirit cleric and makes the card stand out in a binder or playset without drawing too much attention at the table.
On the battlefield Didact Echo becomes more than a cantrip once your graveyard fills. The card rewards deliberate sequencing and encourages you to leverage permanents in grave for value. Use it in decks that can reliably reach four permanents in the graveyard to turn a simple three two body into a flying attacker and keep tempo under control.
