"Find me cards equivalent to: Defense of the Heart"

Equivalent cards to Defense of the Heart (green enchantments with similar tutor/creature cheating abilities):
1. Natural Order (sorcery, not enchantment, but close in function—sacrifice a green creature to tutor a creature onto the battlefield).
2. Birthing Pod (artifact—pays life and sacrifices a creature to tutor another, repeatable).
3. Tooth and Nail (sorcery—tutors and can put up to two creatures onto the battlefield for a bigger cost).
4. Elvish Piper (creature, cheats creatures onto the battlefield from hand).
5. Pattern of Rebirth (enchantment—attached to a creature, tutors any creature onto battlefield when that creature dies).


Reason: There are very few green enchantments that tutor directly from deck to battlefield like Defense of the Heart, but these cards provide similar effects within green.

  • A card with Phyrexian mana symbols in its mana cost is each color that appears in that mana cost, regardless of how that cost may have been paid.
  • A creature's mana value is determined solely by the mana symbols printed in its upper right corner (unless that creature is copying something else; see below). If its mana cost includes {X}, X is considered to be 0. If it has no mana symbols in its upper right corner (because it's an animated land, for example), its mana value is 0. Ignore any alternative costs or additional costs (such as kicker) paid when the creature was cast.
  • A token has a mana value of 0, unless it is copying something else.
  • As you cast a spell or activate an activated ability with one or more Phyrexian mana symbols in its cost, you choose how to pay for each Phyrexian mana symbol at the same time you would choose modes or choose a value for X.
  • If a creature is copying something else, its mana value is the mana value of whatever it's copying.
  • If you're at 1 life or less, you can't pay 2 life.
  • Phyrexian mana is not a new color. Players can't produce Phyrexian mana.
  • To calculate the mana value of a card with Phyrexian mana symbols in its cost, count each Phyrexian mana symbol as 1.

  • Defense of the Heart's ability will check if an opponent controls three or more creatures as your upkeep begins. If none of them do, the ability won't trigger at all. If an opponent does, the ability will check again as it tries to resolve. If none of your opponents control three or more creatures at that point, the ability won't do anything. The opponent that controls three or more creatures as the ability resolves doesn't have to be the same opponent that controlled three or more creatures as it triggered.
  • If Defense of the Heart leaves the battlefield while its triggered ability is on the stack, the ability will still resolve as normal.
