"Find me cards equivalent to: Pattern Matcher"

Pattern Matcher has unique functionality, but here are colorless cards with similar search for a card with the same name functions:

  • Mirror of the Forebears—lets you copy a creature you control with the same name (artifact).
  • Helm of the Host—creates tokens that are copies of equipped creatures (artifact).
  • Spawning Pit—generates creature tokens, not quite a search, but similar synergy.
  • Myr Retriever and Salvage Titan—return artifacts from graveyard, not library.

Closest exact match for searching for a same-named creature is only Pattern Matcher itself. Other colorless cards can copy or make tokens, but don't search your library for same-named cards.

    Rules

  • Any enters-the-battlefield abilities of the copied creature will trigger when the token enters the battlefield. Any "as [this creature] enters the battlefield" or "[this creature] enters the battlefield with" abilities of the chosen creature will also work.
  • If the copied creature has {X} in its mana cost, X is considered to be 0.
  • If the copied creature is a token, the token that's created copies the original characteristics of that token as stated by the effect that created that token.
  • If the copied creature is copying something else (for example, if the copied creature is a Clone), then the token enters the battlefield as whatever that creature copied.
  • If the equipped creature leaves the battlefield before the triggered ability of Helm of the Host resolves, or if there is no equipped creature, no token is created. However, if Helm of the Host leaves the battlefield while its triggered ability is on the stack, a token will be created of the creature it last equipped. If that creature has also left the battlefield, its last known information is used to determine what the token looks like.
  • The token copies exactly what was printed on the original creature and nothing else (unless that creature is copying something else or is a token; see below). It doesn't copy whether that creature is tapped or untapped, whether it has any counters on it or Auras and Equipment attached to it, or any non-copy effects that have changed its power, toughness, types, color, and so on.
  • The token gains haste indefinitely, and this effect isn't copiable. If something else copies the token later, that copy won't have haste.
  • The token isn't legendary, and this exception is copiable. If something else copies the token later, that copy also won't be legendary. If you control two or more permanents with the same name but only one is legendary, the "legend rule" doesn't apply.

    Rules

  • If Mirror of the Forebears becomes a copy of a creature that itself has an ability that asks you to choose a creature type as it enters the battlefield and another ability that references “the chosen creature type,” that ability won’t have a choice made for it. You won’t use the type chosen for Mirror of the Forebears.
  • If Mirror of the Forebears becomes a copy of a legendary creature you control, you’ll put one of them into your graveyard.
  • If Mirror of the Forebears becomes a creature the same turn it enters the battlefield, you can’t attack with it or use any of its {T} abilities (if it gains any) unless it has haste.
  • If Mirror of the Forebears copies a creature that’s copying something else, it will become whatever the target is copying.
  • If an effect begins to apply to Mirror of the Forebears before it becomes a copy of another permanent, that effect will continue to apply. For example, if Mirror of the Forebears is activated twice in response to itself targeting first Spirit of the Hearth then Temur Sabertooth, the ability it has while it’s a copy of Temur Sabertooth can be activated and its effect will continue to apply while Mirror of the Forebears is a copy of Spirit of the Hearth.
  • If you activate the second ability of Mirror of the Forebears multiple times in a turn in response to itself, then each time one of those abilities resolves, it will overwrite whatever Mirror of the Forebears is copying. Mirror of the Forebears will wind up as a copy of the permanent targeted by the last ability to resolve. When the turn ends, all instances of the ability will wear off at the same time.
  • If you somehow control a Mirror of the Forebears with no chosen creature type, its activated ability can’t be activated.
  • Mirror of the Forebears becomes an artifact in addition to its other types. This is a copiable value that other effects may copy.
  • Mirror of the Forebears copies the printed values of the target creature, plus any copy effects that have been applied to it. It won’t copy counters on that creature or effects that have changed its power, toughness, types, color, or so on. Notably, it won’t copy effects that made the target creature become a creature.
  • Once the second ability of Mirror of the Forebears resolves, it no longer has that ability.
  • You can’t choose multiple creature types, such as “Cat Warrior.” A Cat Warrior is both a Cat and a Warrior. It’s affected by anything that affects either type and unaffected by things that affect non-Cat or non-Warrior creatures.
  • You must choose an existing creature type, such as Vampire or Cat. Card types such as “artifact” can’t be chosen.

  • Casting Salvage Titan by paying its alternative cost doesn't change when you can cast it. You can cast it only at the normal time you could cast a creature spell.
  • To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you're paying (such as Salvage Titan's alternative cost), add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The mana value of the spell remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.
  • You may activate its second ability only if Salvage Titan is in your graveyard. To pay this ability's cost, you may exile any three artifact cards from your graveyard—including Salvage Titan itself. If you exile it to pay the cost, however, it won't be returned to your hand when the ability resolves.
