"Find me cards equivalent to: Thought Sponge"

Equivalent blue cards to Thought Sponge are:
1. Chasm Skulker — Grows with card draw, dies into tokens.
2. Fathom Mage — Draws cards with +1/+1 counters.
3. Zimone, Quandrix Prodigy — Card draw tied to card interaction and counters.
4. Triskaidekaphile — Blue, card draw focus.
5. Body of Knowledge — Power = cards in hand, draw cards on damage.

    Rules

  • As long as Body of Knowledge is in your hand, its ability will count itself.
  • Creatures may be dealt damage greater than their toughness. For example, if Body of Knowledge is a 3/3 creature and a source deals 5 damage to it, you'll draw five cards. Note that if Body of Knowledge is dealt lethal damage, it dies before the cards are drawn, meaning they won't raise Body of Knowledge's toughness in time to save it.
  • The ability that defines Body of Knowledge's power and toughness applies in all zones, not just the battlefield.

    Rules

  • If enough -1/-1 counters are put on Chasm Skulker at the same time to make its toughness 0 or less, the number of +1/+1 counters on it before it got any -1/-1 counters will be used to determine how many Squid tokens you get. For example, if there are two +1/+1 counters on Chasm Skulker and it gets three -1/-1 counters, you'll get two Squid tokens.
  • If you draw multiple cards, the first ability will trigger that many times. Each of these abilities will cause a +1/+1 counter to be put on Chasm Skulker.

  • Thought Sponge checks how many cards were drawn by opponents this turn, even opponents who have left the game. The greatest number drawn by a single opponent is how many +1/+1 counters it enters with.
  • Thought Sponge checks the total number of cards drawn by each opponent, not how many were drawn due to a single instruction.
  • Thought Sponge gets its +1/+1 counters at the moment it enters the battlefield. There's not a time that it's on the battlefield before its replacement effect has applied.
  • Use Thought Sponge's power as it last existed on the battlefield to determine how many cards to draw for its last ability. If that number is negative, you neither draw nor discard cards.
