Without VI, Echo is only PS6. Meaning he is moving with the likes of Garven, Dutch, Backstabber and Jendon. I would rather build to 99 points and spend a point to make sure I dont have initiative and move after everyone (with a few exceptions).

That's where Echo and Whisper in my opinion, Whisper wants the Initiative so he can shoot first get his focus and get his cloak up versus Echo caring more about dancing around not wanting it

Rebel Captive stops the A CD from letting the Phantom recloak, as you can't use the free action if you are stressed. SSame with Turr's ability.

The HLC Defender is probably a good choice as well. If you CAN get a shot, it could easily hit through that 4 agility when cloaked. Could run Rexlar Brath with VI and Engine so he can point at the Phantom more easily. Downside is 48 pts for the build. 4 Ties can fit with him, albeit no Howlrunner. Though only 5 non howl ties or 4 howl ties can fit with the ACD + VI Phantom.
