Echo is here and there are already a ton of great decks for her but I haven't seen many that play like this one. Her kit is designed around playing events, stashing them and then using her Photographic Reflexes to play them again. Couple that with her Echo's Katana and you can deal out some major damage.

You're probably saying we all know this what's different about this deck? This deck features a strategy that we have seen with other heroes but Echo makes even more efficient. We are going to boost her base attack up as high as we can to...not basic attack ever, that's right its a Brute Force deck alongside some other lesser used cards!

Why Echo?!?!?:

With her ability to stash events under her, we can play Quick Strike taking advantage of our Boosted attack then use photographic reflexes to do it again! The Katana boosts the damage up even higher and can spread it to another enemy if you're so inclined. With all 3 Brute Forces out alongside Aggressive Conditioning and Combat Training we can get up to 7 base attack!

With Improvisation out you will continually heal playing all these events as well providing key survivability.

Test the Defense is an underused card but once again really shines with Echo. Photographic Reflexes does count as playing the attack event again building our counters up extremely quickly!

The discount PR gives is ridiculously good, Drop Kick becomes a 1 cost card and can be paid for with American Sign Language.

Full-Body Charge becomes a 2 cost event for 8 damage and 4 more from the Katana!

Clobber can be played, returned to the hand to be played again and then can conceivably be played a 3 time in a turn with PR!

The other crown jewel is Choreography whoch let's you shuffles these events back in after they hit discard.

Stick lets you defend or thwart for 3 based on the needs of the game.

I have played this deck alongside Justice decks that provide 0 damage output and have had no issue taking out all minions as well as the villain.

While the deck is centered on Quick Strike, it will operate fine while you're building up. The other attack events bring a ton of bang for the buck. Flipping regularly helps with build out as you get to grab an event when you flip back to hero. Time it right with choreography to have an 8 card hand Flipping back!

This deck has been a blast to play and has handled itself extremely well in MP. It is light on thwarting so if you are playing solo I would add in Smash the Problem or some allies to help out potentially.

I'd love to hear any feedback or experiences with it!

Solid work! Brute Force and Test the Defense were something I wanted to try, so I'm glad to see it be put together so well. I think Agg is my favorite aspect with Echo so far (also the only one I've played), so glad to see more of it.

Beat me to the punch! I've got a working list using this concept but haven't gotten it to the table to test it yet. Glad to see I'm not the only one who saw this combo!

Note: Smash the Problem works great here as well!

Aug 01, 2026 Castlefrank47 · 9431

@D.M.Tip thank you! So far this has been my favorite way to play her out of the builds I've tried.

@LACK OF SUBTLETY great minds lol. Excited to see what you come up with. I did have smash the problem in the description as a potential swap in.

I was trying hard to build an aggression deck when she first came out and couldn't get it to work. This is awesome and exactly what I was hoping to see.

Aug 01, 2026 Castlefrank47 · 9431

@phtephen my first aggression attempt didn't work with her but I really enjoy this one. Thanks for the kind words and hope it works for you if you try it!

This looks great! Love using different stuff for her. And you even skipped her team up card!

Aug 01, 2026 Castlefrank47 · 9431

@boomguy thank you! The few different decks I've played of her I have not really been using allies, yet to include the team up.

Really cool one!!! Eager to try it :)

Aug 04, 2026 Castlefrank47 · 9431

@Game Design Raccoon thank you! Hope it goes well for you if you try it out!

I played this along with a proxy Jessica Jones Justice deck and destroyed purple man Raft Breakout on expert mode. I found that I needed to basic attack a few times so I really wasn't able to use the deck at full potential and yet it deed almost all damage of the game. It works like a charm and it's so fun to play. Clobber is just sooooo good with Echo.

Aug 04, 2026 Castlefrank47 · 9431

@wehehe that's awesome! Glad to hear it went well, I agree Clobber is just awesome for her.

Aug 04, 2026 wehehe · 311

Another point I like is the resources in the deck. I like that some of the cards (Like Cloak encourage you to play just a specific double and two copies of the "power of" instead of the classic 3 basic doubles

i've also been working on an Echo aggression, and i love seeing everyone's takes on things. looks like there's just so many great builds for her just in aggression. she is quickly rocketing to my most-played hero spot. i really love Brute Force and always love any excuse to use it. i had not even considered that things like Quick Strike are just easy to spam in Echo, so you get a ton of mileage out of them. great concept and really fun looking deck

Aug 05, 2026 Castlefrank47 · 9431

@dr00 thank you means alot to hear you say that, your decks were some of the ones that I looked to when i first got into MC. I tried a couple of other Aggression builds but this one was the most fun to me. Being able to thwart and take advantage of her Boosted base attack is just really fun.

Excited to see what you've got cooking!

Aug 05, 2026 InigoMontoya · 7638

Thank you for building the aggression deck I wanted to make for her. I already saw that Drop Kick is amazing for her. Love everything about this!

Aug 05, 2026 Castlefrank47 · 9431

@InigoMontoya thanks for the kind words! She's got a lot of tools she can take advantage of, really fun hero.

Aug 06, 2026 dr00 · 57989

@Castlefrank47 hey, thank you for saying. you've got quite a few great decks yourself! yeah, for me i'm thinking about the fact she can grab an event when she flips up, so things like Surprise Attack seem really fun to me. what's hilarious is you only really need one copy, so there's so much more deck left to go haha

Aug 06, 2026 Castlefrank47 · 9431

@dr00 thank you I appreciate that! I didn't consider surprise attack but that would be really fun with her. Its really nice with her recursion to be able to run 1 or 2 copies of events and not be worried about them being under utilized

Aug 06, 2026 turtles04 · 1138

Awesome!! Always love seeing Aggression decks

Aug 07, 2026 Castlefrank47 · 9431

@turtles04 same here! Was the first aspect I gravitated towards when I first started and I always love trying to find ways to make it enjoyable.

Aug 09, 2026 InigoMontoya · 7638

My wife played this deck yesterday and I played Justice Daredevil. We didn't even try to rush Electro but the Echo damage was so much that the game was over in round 4. This deck is a beast!

Aug 09, 2026 Castlefrank47 · 9431

@InigoMontoya that's awesome to hear! It definitely hits hard and handles the damage for a 2p game with ease

It feels really good to be vindicated on building her with clobber. I don't have valk or aoa though so I'll have to build her differently

I tried to give a modified version of this a shot in true solo and...Stop the Presses! & Hammerhead have kicked my butt six times in a row. Either this archetype gets hard countered by that scenario & underling combination or I'm doing something wrong here (or both).

Aug 15, 2026 Castlefrank47 · 9431

`@Azure_Flame solo is definitely more swingy and it could benefit from some thwart events like smash the problem.

Hammerhead does do a really good job of countering due to his retaliate but in my plays against him I would typically focus on clearing the minions and building my base attack up then the quick strike attacks outweigh the retaliate for the most part

Aug 15, 2026 Azure_Flame · 1

@Castlefrank47 Thanks for the tips! What eventually worked for me was swapping Smash the Problem for Into the Fray. It can combo with Clobber to soften up a minion if you need to remove more threat.

I threw in Athletic Conditioning for cheap stun removal and it helped quite a bit against Hammerhead! Sometimes taking a stun was unavoidable even with the +1 from Stick.

Aug 15, 2026 Castlefrank47 · 9431

@Azure_Flame that's awesome glad to hear you were able to make it work!
