Instead, the Power Nine are brought into play via the Conjure mechanic on Oracle of the Alpha
gives you a green blue deck with tons of landfall and manifest cards, rewarding you for doing the most boring action in Magic, playing lands, by turning them into manifest dread triggers off of Zimone, Mystery Unraveler or turning a facedown card right side up if you play two lands in a turn
The expensive activated ability is one of the best in the game, and when you consider that you have access to every game changer and tutors are one of the measures that put your deck up a bracket, a super-powered creature tutor for creatures and that cheats the card into play is busted
If you do care about the echo then the easier cost has some appeal
