"Find me cards equivalent to: Rescuer Sphinx"

Equivalent cards to Rescuer Sphinx (Blue, Creature — Sphinx, flying, ETB bounce, +1/+1 counter if bounced):
1. Sage’s Row Sphinx – Blue Sphinx with flying, mill effect on ETB (no bounce, but similar ETB trigger).
2. Dream Eater – Blue Sphinx, flying, flash, surveil and bounce on ETB (bounce is for opponent's stuff).
3. Aether Adept – Blue creature, ETB bounce a creature (not a Sphinx, no +1/+1 counter).
4. Aetherize Sphinx – Not a printed card; for Sphinxes with similar ETB, mostly don't bounce.
5. Scholar of the Lost Trove – Blue Sphinx, flying, ETB recurs spell (not bounce).

Closest match: None are exact matches (bounce your own, gain +1/+1), but Dream Eater offers a strong ETB bounce and is also a blue Sphinx.

Reason: Sphinxes typically don't have ETB self-bounce abilities. Rescuer Sphinx is somewhat unique among blue Sphinx creatures.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Flash Flying Surveil

    Rules

  • Dream Eater's reflexive triggered ability triggers even if you have fewer than four cards in your library to surveil.
  • Dream Eater's triggered ability goes on the stack without a target. While that ability is resolving, after you've surveilled, the reflexive triggered ability triggers and you pick a target nonland permanent to be returned to its owner's hand. This is different from effects that say "If you do . . ." in that you choose the target after having surveilled.
  • When you surveil, you may put all the cards you look at back on top of your library, you may put all of those cards into your graveyard, or you may put some of those cards on top and the rest of them into your graveyard.
  • You perform the actions stated on a card in sequence. For some spells and abilities, you'll surveil last. For others, you'll surveil and then perform other actions.

    Rules

  • If Rescuer Sphinx somehow enters the battlefield at the same time as another permanent, you can’t return that permanent. You may choose only permanents that are already on the battlefield.
  • If the returned permanent had an ability that would otherwise have triggered when Rescuer Sphinx enters the battlefield (such as that of Kronch Wrangler), that ability won’t trigger.
  • You choose whether to return a nonland permanent and which one to return for Rescuer Sphinx’s ability while it’s entering the battlefield. No player may take actions between the time you choose which permanent to return and the time Rescuer Sphinx is on the battlefield with a +1/+1 counter.
