"Find me cards equivalent to: Aberrant Researcher"

Equivalent cards to Aberrant Researcher (blue, creature, flying, self-mill, cares about instants/sorceries):
1. Jace's Phantasm – Blue, flying, benefits from cards in opponent’s graveyard.
2. Stitchwing Skaab – Blue, flying, can self-recure from graveyard by discarding cards (usually enabling more instants/sorceries in graveyard).
3. Thing in the Ice – Blue, cares about instants/sorceries cast and transforms.
4. Delver of Secrets – Blue, transform effect based on revealing instant/sorcery.
5. Jeskai Elder – Blue, looting effect on combat, enabling self-mill or instant/sorcery synergy.

Closest direct equivalents are Delver of Secrets and Thing in the Ice due to blue color, transformation, and instant/sorcery dependency.

    Rules

  • If Jace's Phantasm is dealt lethal damage at the same time as an opponent's creature, and that creature will become that opponent's tenth card in their graveyard, Jace's Phantasm will be destroyed before it gets +4/+4. This is because all creatures that have been dealt lethal damage are destroyed at the same time.
  • In a multiplayer game, a single opponent must have ten or more cards in their graveyard for the bonus to apply, although this opponent may change over the course of the game. You don't have to pick a single opponent; the ability will monitor each opponent's graveyard.
  • The last ability of Jace's Phantasm constantly monitors each opponent's graveyard to see if the bonus applies. If the stated condition becomes no longer true, the bonus immediately stops applying.

    Prowess

    Rules

  • Any spell you cast that doesn't have the type creature will cause prowess to trigger. If a spell has multiple types, and one of those types is creature (such as an artifact creature), casting it won't cause prowess to trigger. Playing a land also won't cause prowess to trigger.
  • Once it triggers, prowess isn't connected to the spell that caused it to trigger. If that spell is countered, prowess will still resolve.
  • Prowess goes on the stack on top of the spell that caused it to trigger. It will resolve before that spell.
  • You draw a card and discard a card all while Jeskai Elder's ability is resolving. Nothing can happen between the two, and no player may choose to take actions.
