AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Backslide

Equivalent cards to Backslide (blue, morph-related, instant or similar effect):

  • Break Open: Also interacts with morph, but it's red (flips opponent’s).
  • Ixidron: Blue, interacts with face-down creatures (turns all creatures face down as 2/2s, not instant).
  • Echo Tracer: Blue, morph ability plus bounce, not an instant.
  • Weirding Wood or other blue instant effects: None with the exact effect.

Closest blue instant: There’s no direct blue instant that turns a face-down creature face up besides Backslide. Use Ixidron or Echo Tracer for similar effects.


Reason: Backslide is unique for its instant-speed morph-flip ability in blue. Most similar cards are either not instant or are not blue.

    Rules

  • If Ixidron and another creature are entering at the same time, the other creature enters face up.
  • The controller of a face-down creature can look at it at any time, even if it doesn't have morph. Other players can't, but the rules for face-down permanents state that "you must ensure at all times that your face-down spells and permanents can be easily differentiated from each other." As a result, all players must be able to figure out what each of the creatures Ixidron turned face down is.
  • Turning a face-down creature face-down typically has no effect; the creature's status is unchanged.
  • You turn the creatures face-down *as* Ixidron enters. There is never a moment when Ixidron is on the battlefield and the creatures are face-up. If a creature on the battlefield has a "whenever another creature enters" ability, it won't trigger because that creature will be face down before Ixidron enters.
  • Creatures turned face down by Ixidron are 2/2 creatures with no text, no name, no subtypes, no expansion symbol, and no mana cost. These values are copiable if an object becomes a copy of one of those creatures, and their normal values are not copiable.

    As this creature enters, turn all other nontoken creatures face down. (They're 2/2 creatures.) Ixidron's power and toughness are each equal to the number of face-down creatures on the battlefield.

    Enchant Investigate

    Rules

  • Clue is an artifact type. Even though it appears on some cards with other permanent types, it's never a creature type, a land type, or anything but an artifact type.
  • If an effect refers to a Clue, it means any Clue artifact, not just a Clue artifact token. For example, you can sacrifice Wrench to pay for Alquist Proft, Master Sleuth's activated ability.
  • You can't sacrifice a Clue to pay multiple costs. For example, you can't sacrifice a Clue token to activate its own ability and also to activate Alquist Proft, Master Sleuth's ability.
