Gameplay

Enchantment

This enchantment enters with X echo counters on it. You don't lose the game for having 0 or less life. At the beginning of your upkeep, sacrifice this enchantment if there are no echo counters on it. Otherwise, target opponent may choose that for each 1 damage that would be dealt to you until your next upkeep, you remove an echo counter from this enchantment instead.

If you take damage between the start of the upkeep step and the time in which the upkeep trigger resolves, then Soul Echo will not affect that damage and you will be affected by the damage as normal.

2004-10-04wotc

If this card runs out of counters before your next upkeep, the effect still replaces the damage and uselessly tries to remove counters from the now empty card.

2004-10-04wotc

If you have more than one Soul Echo, the opponent chooses which ones will be replacing damage that turn (if any). And when damage happens, you decide which one of the ones the opponent selected that you want the damage to be replaced with, but the damage all goes to one of them.

This printing is one of 2 catalogued treatments from MIR — the lineup includes Nonfoil alongside the standard finish. Across our catalog the Rarix library tracks every variant in the same family so collectors can compare price, scarcity and demand inside a single lineage.

Card #40 of *Mirage*, the set that shipped alongside the October 1996 Mirage release.

Card type: Enchantment, color identity white, printed at rare. Rares occupy the bottom-of-pack rare slot in standard boosters. Mana cost: {X}{W}{W} (2 converted).

Legal in Legacy, Vintage, and Commander. This printing is on Wizards of the Coast's Reserved List — Wizards has committed never to reprint cards on that list, which underwrites a structural scarcity floor on every surviving copy.

EDHrec ranks this card #24,171 in Commander, putting it in the fringe-play tier of the format's playable pool.
