Mana Echoes

How it works

1. Cast Hornet Queen by paying 4.
2. When Hornet Queen enters the battlefield, it, Cloudstone Curio, and Mana Echoes trigger.
3. Resolve the Cloudstone Curio trigger, returning nothing to your hand from the battlefield.
4. Resolve the Hornet Queen trigger, creating four 1/1 Insect creature tokens.
5. When the Insects enter the battlefield, Mana Echoes and Cloudstone Curio each trigger four times.
6. Resolve the first Cloudstone Curio trigger, returning Hornet Queen from the battlefield to your hand.
7. Resolve all remaining Cloudstone Curio triggers, returning nothing to your hand from the battlefield.
8. Resolve all Mana Echoes triggers, adding 5 for each Insect you control.
9. Activate Prismite three times by paying 6, adding .
10. Repeat.

This fascinating loop transforms the sheer insect swarm of Hornet Queen into an engine for infinite resources, leaning on a clever web of shared types and triggers. As Hornet Queen hits the battlefield, Mana Echoes counts the Insects entering alongside her to flood your pool with colorless energy, which Prismite readily converts into the precise green mana you need to recast the Queen. Meanwhile, Cloudstone Curio watches the chaos unfold and lets you bounce Hornet Queen back to your hand the moment her tokens arrive, setting the stage to cast her all over again.
