                              constructed, could be used in decks with
                              Mobilization, Centaur Glade, or Dragon Roost to
                              reduce costs and up productivity.  In
                              Extended, you could acutally go infinite with
                              Roost or Mobiliztion if you have enough on the
                              board and a Skyshroud Elf.  Look-out - this
                              card might just be combolicious good.

                                Mana Echoes looks
                                like a fun card, if only it cost 2 or maybe 3.
                                Unfortunately, it costs 4. Therefore, you will
                                typically be out (or nearly out) of cards in
                                hand when you cast this, and therefore, it won't
                                be of much use.

                                about playing it in limited. Sealed, you won't
                                have enough of a given creature type for it to
                                matter, and in draft, there's many better cards
                                you can pick.

                                Maybe somebody smart like Hatter or Scotty can
                                figure out a good use for this card. I like red
                                cards that do 2 things: 1) turn sideways and
                                attack and 2) burn opponent in his/her freakin'
                                head. That's it and all you need. This card gets
                                a 1 until one of you teeming millions who read
                                this column show me otherwise...I dare you.

                              I really, really don't like this card.  It's
                              just not 
                              that good.  If it cost was one or two, it
                              might not be 
                              too bad.  But it's not, so it sucks. 
                              You could build 
                              a deck around it, but I'm not gonna waste my time
                              with 
                              it.  I'll stick to Lightning Rift, thank you. 
                              BTW, 
                              it's only higher in Limited since you might have a 
                              fatty you want to cast.

                              Wow. This card could really be abused. Elf-ball
                              decks 
                              could really have fun with this card. 
                               
                              If we try and use it honestly we run into
                              problems. 
                              What deck could use this? 
                              Sligh: no - its too expensive. 
                              Counterburn: no - not enough creatures. 
                              G/R aggro: no - wild mongrel, basking rootwalla
                              and 
                              arrogant wurm are all different creatue types. 
                              This card gets a 2 in constructed. 
                               
                              This plain sucks in limited. A 1.
