"Find me cards equivalent to: Worthy Cause"

Cards similar to Worthy Cause (white, instant, life gain by sacrificing creatures):

  • Altar's Reap (black, but it's an instant that sacrifices a creature for cards, not life)
  • Momentous Fall (green, instant, life gain and card draw, but not white)
  • Devour Flesh (black, forces sacrifice, life gain to opponent)

Closest white options:

  • Swords to Plowshares (white, instant, exiles a creature, its controller gains life equal to its power)
  • Blessed Alliance (white, instant, target opponent sacrifices creature, you gain 4 life as an option)
  • Soul's Attendant (not an instant, gains life when a creature enters)

No direct white instant with buyback and identical effect, but Worthy Cause is closest to Blasphemous Act in self-sacrifice, but for life gain. Most white life gain/instant cards do not involve sacrificing your own creatures.

    Rules

  • Although players may respond to Blasphemous Act once it's been cast, once it's announced, they can't respond before the cost is calculated and paid.
  • Blasphemous Act's ability can't reduce the total cost to cast the spell below {R}.
  • The total cost to cast Blasphemous Act is locked in before you pay that cost. For example, if there are three creatures on the battlefield, including one you can sacrifice to add {C}, the total cost of Blasphemous Act is {5}{R}. Then you can sacrifice the creature when you activate mana abilities just before paying the cost.
  • To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you're paying, add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions (such as that of Blasphemous Act). The mana value of the spell is determined only by its mana cost, no matter what the total cost to cast the spell was.

    Escalate

    Rules

  • Additional costs don’t affect a spell’s mana value.
  • Effects that reduce the cost of spells reduce the total cost, including any escalate costs added.
  • If an effect allows you to cast a spell that has escalate without paying its mana cost, you pay escalate costs for that spell if you choose more than one mode.
  • If one target of an escalate spell becomes illegal, the other targets will still be affected. If all of the targets become illegal, the spell won’t resolve.
  • If two of the chosen modes of an escalate spell target a creature, you may choose the same creature for each mode’s target, or choose different creatures. The same is true if the chosen modes target a player (or opponent).
  • The targeted opponent chooses which of their attacking creatures to sacrifice, not you.
  • Untapping an attacking creature doesn’t cause it to be removed from combat.
  • You can’t choose any one mode multiple times.
  • You choose all of your modes at once. You can’t wait to perform one mode’s actions and then decide to choose more modes.
