"Find me cards equivalent to: The Antiquities War"

Equivalent cards to The Antiquities War with similar color (blue, 'U'), type (Enchantment — Saga), and artifact synergy:
1. Tezzeret's Gambit (blue, draws cards, synergizes with artifacts, but not a Saga)
2. Tezzeret, Master of the Bridge (blue and black, gives artifacts Lifelink and enables artifact strategies, not a Saga)
3. Mirrodin Besieged (blue, Enchantment, has lore-like effects and artifact synergy)
4. Urza's Saga (colorless, Enchantment — Saga, artifact synergy, but not blue)
5. Dance of the Manse (blue and white, returns artifacts/enchantments, not a Saga)

Closest true equivalent meeting your constraints:
Mirrodin Besieged—though not a Saga, it's a blue enchantment with artifact-focused effects.


Reason: There are currently no other mono-blue Enchantment — Saga cards with artifact synergy and similar effects as The Antiquities War. Mirrodin Besieged is the most similar in color and function.

  • An Equipment that's also a creature can't be attached to anything. You can activate its equip ability, but it won't become attached.
  • An artifact creature or enchantment creature returned this way will be a 4/4 creature.
  • If X is 6 or more, the artifacts and/or enchantments enter the battlefield as 4/4 creatures. They don't enter as noncreature permanents and then become creatures.
  • If a card in a player's graveyard has {X} in its mana cost, that X is considered to be 0.
  • If another effect causes one of the returned permanents to become a creature and sets its power and toughness as it does so, that creature will have that power and toughness; it won't be 4/4. Notably, crewing a Vehicle does not set its power and toughness, so a Vehicle will remain a 4/4 creature if you crew it.

  • If you somehow control Mirrodin Besieged and no choice was made for it, it has neither of the two triggered abilities.
  • If you support the Mirrans, Mirrodin Besieged’s ability resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger. It resolves even if that spell is countered.
  • If you support the Phyrexians, you must choose a target opponent as your end step begins. Whether that player loses the game is determined only as the ability resolves. This means that the card you discard may be the fifteenth artifact card that causes the target player to lose the game, but it also means that if there is no legal target opponent, you won’t draw or discard.
  • In a Two-Headed Giant game, if one player on a team loses the game, that team loses the game.

    As this enchantment enters, choose Mirran or Phyrexian. • Mirran — Whenever you cast an artifact spell, create a 1/1 colorless Myr artifact creature token. • Phyrexian — At the beginning of your end step, draw a card, thendiscarda card. Then if there are fifteen or more artifact cards in your graveyard, target opponent loses the game.

    Proliferate

    Rules

  • A card with Phyrexian mana symbols in its mana cost is each color that appears in that mana cost, regardless of how that cost may have been paid.
  • As you cast a spell or activate an activated ability with one or more Phyrexian mana symbols in its cost, you choose how to pay for each Phyrexian mana symbol at the same time you would choose modes or choose a value for X.
  • If you're at 1 life or less, you can't pay 2 life.
  • Phyrexian mana is not a new color. Players can't produce Phyrexian mana.
  • To calculate the mana value of a card with Phyrexian mana symbols in its cost, count each Phyrexian mana symbol as 1.
  • An ability that triggers "Whenever you proliferate" triggers even if you chose no permanents or players while doing so.
  • If a permanent ever has both +1/+1 counters and -1/-1 counters on it at the same time, they're removed in pairs as a state-based action so that the permanent has only one of those kinds of counters on it.
  • If a player or permanent has more than one kind of counter on it, and you choose for it to get additional counters, it must get one of each kind of counter it already has. You can't have it get just one kind of counter it already has and not the others.
  • Players can respond to a spell or ability whose effect includes proliferating. Once that spell or ability starts to resolve, however, and its controller chooses which permanents and players will get new counters, it's too late for anyone to respond.
  • To proliferate, you can choose any permanent that has a counter, including ones controlled by opponents. You can choose any player who has a counter, including opponents. You can't choose cards in any zone other than the battlefield, even if they have counters on them.
  • You don't have to choose every permanent or player that has a counter, only the ones you want to add another counter to. Since "any number" includes zero, you don't have to choose any permanents at all, and you don't have to choose any players at all.

  • Affinity can reduce only generic mana in a spell's cost. It can't reduce color requirements.
  • Affinity doesn't change the spell's mana value. It changes only how much mana you pay to cast the spell.
  • Affinity for artifacts means "This spell costs {1} less for each artifact you control."
  • If a spell has multiple instances of affinity, each applies.
  • If there are any additional costs or cost increases that would apply to a spell with affinity, apply those before applying any cost reductions.
  • In a Two-Headed Giant game, Tezzeret's first loyalty ability causes the opposing team to lose twice X life and you gain X life.
  • Tezzeret himself doesn't have affinity for artifacts.
  • The cost reduction is set before you pay any of the spell's costs. Specifically, you could lock in a discount for an artifact you control and then sacrifice that artifact to activate a mana ability.

    Saga
    Rank:
    Saltiness:

    Rules

  • A chapter ability doesn’t trigger if a lore counter is put on a Saga that already had a number of lore counters greater than or equal to that chapter’s number. For example, the third lore counter put on a Saga causes the III chapter ability to trigger, but I and II won’t trigger again.
  • An Equipment that becomes an artifact creature becomes unattached if it’s attached to a creature. Its equip ability can be activated, but it won’t become attached to the target creature.
  • As a Saga enters the battlefield, its controller puts a lore counter on it. As your precombat main phase begins (immediately after your draw step), you put another lore counter on each Saga you control. Putting a lore counter on a Saga in either of these ways doesn’t use the stack.
  • Each symbol on the left of a Saga’s text box represents a chapter ability. A chapter ability is a triggered ability that triggers when a lore counter that is put on the Saga causes the number of lore counters on the Saga to become equal to or greater than the ability’s chapter number. Chapter abilities are put onto the stack and may be responded to.
  • Effects that modify an artifact creature’s power and/or toughness, such as the effect of Titanic Growth, will apply to the creature no matter when they started to take effect. The same is true for any counters that change its power and/or toughness and effects that switch its power and toughness.
  • If The Antiquities War somehow becomes an artifact enchantment prior to resolving its final chapter ability, it will become a 5/5 Saga artifact enchantment creature, and will then be sacrificed after that ability resolves.
  • If counters are removed from a Saga, the appropriate chapter abilities will trigger again when the Saga receives lore counters. Removing lore counters won’t cause a previous chapter ability to trigger.
  • If multiple chapter abilities trigger at the same time, their controller puts them on the stack in any order. If any of them require targets, those targets are chosen as you put the abilities on the stack, before any of those abilities resolve.
  • Once a chapter ability has triggered, the ability on the stack won’t be affected if the Saga gains or loses counters, or if it leaves the battlefield.
  • Once the number of lore counters on a Saga is greater than or equal to the greatest number among its chapter abilities—in the Dominaria set, this is always three—the Saga’s controller sacrifices it as soon as its chapter ability has left the stack, most likely by resolving or being countered. This state-based action doesn’t use the stack.
  • The final chapter ability of The Antiquities War affects only artifacts you control at the time it resolves. Artifacts you begin to control later in the turn won’t become 5/5 creatures.
  • The final chapter ability of The Antiquities War overwrites an artifact creature’s normal base power and toughness and all previous effects that set an artifact creature’s base power and toughness to specific values. Any power- or toughness-setting effects that start to apply after the ability resolves will overwrite this effect.

  • Although Urza's Saga has the Urza's land type, it doesn't interact with Urza's Tower, Urza's Mine, or Urza's Power Plant.
  • Even though Urza's Saga is a land, it is also still a Saga, and it will be sacrificed after its last chapter ability resolves.
  • If Urza's Saga loses all of its chapter abilities but is still a Saga, perhaps due to a card like Blood Moon, it will immediately be sacrificed.
  • Urza's Saga gains an ability from its first and second chapters. It keeps those abilities for as long as it's on the battlefield.
  • Urza's Saga is a land, so it can only be played as a land. It cannot be cast as a spell.
  • While resolving the chapter III ability, you can find only a card with actual mana cost {0} or {1}, not mana value 0 or 1. For example, you couldn't find a card with mana cost {U} or one with mana cost {X}.
