Soul Echo can help you survive, except there's nothing to stop your opponent from dealing damage to you down to zero or below, then have subsequent damage speed up the removal of echo counters
Then you can spend five mana to force each cast instant/sorcery to shoot your foes for damage equal to your count of those spells this turn, so it's a win-con there
Migration Path There's basically no reason to play Explosive Vegetation anymore with so many strictly better versions out there
There isnt any efficient powerhouse that jumps off the page for other formats (like Legolass Quick Reflexes did in LOTR)
