Who would you tag with Echo?

Hi!

I just noticed I own a couple of Echo.

Echo
Nosferatu

Camarilla: Echo gets +1 strength in combat with a Red List minion.

She just screams to be played. The problem is that she's so very unique. The best bet would be her joining forces with multitude of clans, but if one wants to start off with obvious choices, Harold Tanner with his POT, obf and dom, and a nifty special, is an obvious choice. Add a few weenies, like Foureyes, and probably Harolds twin brother, Joseph Cambridge.

The rest? Go figure. I was thinking of either Cock Robin for Alastor and techs, but Casino Reeds seems like a better choice with his ability and . He's also good for Red Listing people, and now that I was thinking already of adding 3 Lilith's Blessings, 2 Parthenons and 6 Villeins (so much horrible cheese... ), adding up his cel to CEL wouldn't be much of a problem.

Afterwards just play along with Potence and Celerity, bounce with Dominate, Graverob someone, bleed some and try to kill stuff in the meantime?

The other pretty obvious angle would be making Echo anarch and baron, and start off a ruckus with Anarch Revolts and her weenie/mid cap Nossie friends.

Ideas? She's got so many disciplines to use. A multi-clan oddball would be a better choice?

If you go for , what does she do better than a Eurobrujah?

Pair her with Gustaphe:

Gustaphe Brunnelle [KoT:V]
Cardtype: Vampire
Clan: Nosferatu
Group: 4
Capacity: 8
Discipline: obf ANI DOM POT
Camarilla primogen: Gustaphe can enter combat with a minion controlled by your predator or prey as a action.
Artist: Joel Biske

Bring out Gustaphe first, Governing out Echo. Play trophies, making use of both of their specials. If that doesn't work, bleed with more Governs.

I planned on making that deck, but combat's too dicey here to hunt for trophies without being able to prevent hitback.

I think your best bet winning with her is using her OBF-dom,

Massassi?
Tatu Sawosa?

All share POT, and all have two of: AUS, CEL or OBF.

The Labyrinth, and Warsaw Station spring into mind.

Probably she won't be 'better' as such, but that's not the point.

No, no... Please don't...

Seriously, though, if I want to make a dedicated stealth bleed deck, Nosferatu wouldn't probably be the first clan to try it with.

Gustaphe might work okay. He's actually a primogen too, so I might want to try out that Red listing tech. Ebay should work there, obviously. I've only one Gustaphe as it stands. Not a bad idea, and one I thought of previously.

So they do. The funny thing is, I just traded all my four Massassis for a friend. I don't know if I own any Tatus. They would be pretty much the obvious choices, though.

The interesting part comes in here: Why would I want to use Echo to support those guys? It easily swaps into being a Massassi deck with the help of Tatu, and Echo. Is this exactly a bad thing? Probably not. At least I'd get some use for Echo anyways. Thematically it's a bit weird. I have to contemplate on this.

At the moment, however, that problem's easily solved by me not owning Massassi anymore, and the prices in the ebay are a bit on the heavy side.

Kurt Densch is going to be my number one candidate for Echo's partners. I'm contemplating on Juggler, Casino Reeds, Gustaphe Brunelle and Doctor Streck. Here Tatu would be much better, I figure. I wonder if I have her...
