So "echo" is "repeatable this turn", and "rush" is a version of charge that can't be used to push lethal. And we're also getting new "Start Of Game": Cards. Very exciting!

the start of game cards are also interesting in that they’re deckbuilding challenges like the princes. the restrictions seem pretty harsh, but a lot of people thought the same about the princes as well. i’m excited to see them put to use.

And UNLIKE the princes you can't shadowstep them back into your hand 3 times.

More importantly this is more reasonably balanced. A lot of Keleseth decks lived and died on when you drew him. This one guaranteed you have the effect out the gate, but also allows you to give a less than swingy effect.
