"Find me cards equivalent to: Decorum Dissertation"

Equivalent cards to Decorum Dissertation (Black, Sorcery, draw 2, lose 2):

  • Sign in Blood: Sorcery, B, target player draws 2, loses 2 life.
  • Night's Whisper: Sorcery, 1B, you draw 2, lose 2 life.
  • Read the Bones: Sorcery, 2B, scry 2, draw 2, lose 2 life.
  • Decorum Dissertation: Your original card (for completeness).


Reason: All of these are black sorceries that draw 2 cards and cause you to lose 2 life. None have Paradigm, so there’s no direct mechanical equivalent.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Paradigm

    Rules

  • Each spell with paradigm has the Lesson subtype. The Lesson subtype appears on instants and sorceries and has no inherent rules meaning. Other effects (such as the learn ability from the original Strixhaven release) may refer to it.
  • Once a spell with paradigm has resolved, it doesn't matter what happens to the card in exile. Even if the card leaves exile, the delayed triggered ability will still trigger during each of your first main phases, and the copy will still be created.
  • Paradigm creates a delayed triggered ability that triggers at the beginning of each of your first main phases for the rest of the game. When that ability resolves and the copy is created, you can choose not to cast the copy. In that case, the copy will cease to exist the next time state-based actions are checked. The delayed triggered ability will still trigger again at the beginning of your first main phase on your next turn regardless.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Scry

    Rules

  • Scry appears on some spells and abilities with one or more targets. If all of the spell or ability's targets are illegal when it tries to resolve, it won't resolve and none of its effects will happen. You won't scry.
  • The loss of life is part of the spell's effect. It's not an additional cost. If Read the Bones doesn't resolve, you won't lose life.
  • When you scry, you may put all the cards you look at back on top of your library, you may put all of those cards on the bottom of your library, or you may put some of those cards on top and the rest of them on the bottom.
  • You choose how to order cards returned to your library after scrying no matter where you put them.
  • You perform the actions stated on a card in sequence. For some spells and abilities, that means you'll scry last. For others, that means you'll scry and then perform other actions.

    Scry 2, then draw two cards. You lose 2 life. (To scry 2, look at the top two cards of your library, then put any number of them on the bottom and the rest on top in any order.)
