"Find me cards equivalent to: Abrupt Decay"

Cards equivalent to Abrupt Decay (Instant, B/G, destroy low-mana nonland permanent, can’t be countered):

Abrupt Decay

  • Instant, BG
  • Can’t be countered
  • Destroys nonland permanent with MV 3 or less

Closest equivalents (all BG instants killing small permanents):

  • Assassin's Trophy: BG instant, destroys any permanent, but opponent gets a land, can be countered.
  • Putrefy: BG instant, destroys artifact or creature, can be countered.
  • Maelstrom Pulse: BG, not instant (sorcery), destroys nonland permanent but not at instant speed.
  • Tear Asunder: BG/kicker, instant, exiles artifact/enchantment or any nonland permanent if kicked, can be countered.

Summary: Nothing matches all properties exactly but Assassin's Trophy is closest in function; only Abrupt Decay itself is uncounterable and exactly fits your filter.

  • A spell or ability that counters spells can still target Abrupt Decay. When that spell or ability resolves, Abrupt Decay won't be countered, but any additional effects of the countering spell or ability will still happen.
  • If a permanent has {X} in its mana cost, X is considered to be 0.
  • The mana value of a token that isn't a copy of another object is 0. A token that is a copy of another object has the same mana cost as that object.
  • If you target a creature with ward, you may still pay the ward cost, but Abrupt Decay won't be countered even if you don't.

    Rules

  • If the target permanent is an illegal target by the time Maelstrom Pulse tries to resolve, the spell won't resolve. You won't destroy any permanents at all. If the target is legal but not destroyed (most likely because it has indestructible), you do destroy other permanents with the same name.
  • Maelstrom Pulse has only one target. Other permanents with the same name will be destroyed even if they have hexproof or protection.
  • Unless a token is a copy of another permanent or was explicitly given a name by the effect that created it, its name is the subtypes it was given when it was created plus the word "Token." For example, if an effect creates a 1/1 Soldier creature token, that token is named "Soldier Token."
