Haunting Echoes

Where most graveyard hate clips a single resource, this one prosecutes the whole graveyard as a confession. Every nonbasic card already in the yard names something to be hunted: exile the card, then exile every copy of it still hiding in the deck, and shuffle the wreckage back together. Against a recursion or flashback engine the math turns brutal, because the cards a player has been feeding to their graveyard are precisely the ones their library is most likely to be built around. It ignores the board entirely, and against an aggressive deck that empties its hand and never looks back it can whiff onto basic lands, so the price is steep for an effect that can do nothing. But against a control mirror or a combo deck leaning on a graveyard loop, it functions less as removal than as deck deletion: a four-of can become a zero-of in a single resolution, and the threat of that asymmetry warps how an opponent uses their bin. Among the anti-engine black sorceries that punish redundancy rather than tempo, it is the most thorough, refusing to leave a single named copy in reserve. The design lesson is that a graveyard is not just a second hand; it is a public index of a deck's intentions, and this turns that index into a target list.
