oooooh my gosh both are soo good reprints I don’t mind the upshift of mana echos at all especially since mythic didn’t exist when it was first reprinted it would have Ben mythic back in the day if it existed
Nice reprints. I'm not suprised WotC had to upshift a red rare to mythic, as how many red mythics with any value are there? I guess they could print Zodiac Dragon at mythic, and then there is Imperial Recruiter ...
Echoes is a solid reprint, but it would have been nice to have it at Rare. it feels like a card that would be actively fun and not overly busted to draft with

especially when its not likely even without canceled events that much of anyone was going to draft this set at all.
Mana Echoes, great reprint. Completely awful that it was upshifted. The only reason this was worth much money was lack of a reprint. Way to cash grab.

For the first 5 years of its life, mana echoes was a 10 cent rare. It existed in a time of mana burn and it wasn't until sliver queen as a commander came around that there was a reliable(and broken) way to utilize the card. If you were to draft this set - the only way to justify putting it in your 40 would be some myr/ramp deck and I still don't see the payoff. This is a niche card with an unfun payoff (even worse than other similar cards like Ashnod altar). As a mythic at least the price may stay above 2 dollars - as a rare it would be worse than runed halo - a card with a meteoric drop in price even with a potential application in modern/standard.
It's so weird that they'd upshift Mana Echoes to mythic given that it spent a long time in relative obscurity and they claim to not do this based on the secondary market, its only home is basically Sliver Queen edh

no other tribals use it
and this is the first ever reprint I think it’s safe to say if mythic existed back in the day it would be that rarity

I won't be shocked to see this fall to 2 or 3 bucks in a year. Who plays it outside Commander?

I only play it in commander because I'm a degenerate Sliver player. That said, it's not even that great. Another combo piece, but not really necessary.

Muxus, Winota... so many others. Not just slivers.
oh absolute
the reason it goes into slivers mostly is because of Sliver queen because if you have 2 sliver that's automatically infinite sliver tokens and infinite colorless mana (rainbow if you have chromatic orrery)

I *knew* I should hold off on buying The Scarab God!
Finally, a reprint in this set I truly want!
