"Find me cards equivalent to: Dreadhorde Arcanist"

Equivalent cards to Dreadhorde Arcanist (Red) that recur spells from the graveyard:

  • Isochron Scepter (lets you cast imprinted instant repeatedly)
  • Runaway Steam-Kin (doesn’t recur, but helps cast more spells)
  • Chandra, Pyromaster (can let you play exiled cards, not directly from graveyard)
  • Goblin Dark-Dwellers (casts instant/sorcery from your graveyard on ETB)
  • Ardent Elementalist (returns instant/sorcery to hand)

These have similar graveyard/spell recursion roles in red, but none are identical to Dreadhorde Arcanist’s ongoing attack trigger.

    Rules

  • Because you're casting the copies "without paying their mana costs," you can't pay any alternative costs for the copies. You can pay additional costs, such as kicker costs. If the copies have any mandatory additional costs, you must pay those.
  • If the copied card has {X} in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as its value when casting the copies.
  • If the first ability resolves but the damage is prevented or redirected, the target creature still won't be able to block that turn.
  • If you exile a land card using the second ability, you may play that land only if you have any available land plays. Normally, this means you can play the land only if you haven't played a land yet that turn.
  • In the third ability, "exiled this way" means the cards you just exiled because of that ability resolving. Cards exiled with the second ability or with previous activations of the third ability don't count.
  • The card exiled by the second ability is exiled face up. Playing it follows the normal rules for playing that card. You must pay its costs, and you must follow all applicable timing rules. For example, if it's a creature card, you can cast it only during your main phase while the stack is empty.
  • To activate the first ability, you must target a player but you can choose to not target any creatures.
  • While casting the copies created by the third ability, timing restrictions based on the card's type (such as creature or sorcery) are ignored. Other restrictions, such as "Cast [this spell] only during combat," are not.
  • While resolving the third ability, you create the copies of the card in exile and cast them from exile. You can cast zero, one, two, or all three copies. The card itself isn't cast. It remains exiled.

    Rules

  • If Dreadhorde Arcanist leaves the battlefield before its triggered ability resolves, use its power as it last existed on the battlefield to check whether the card is still a legal target.
  • If the card has {X} in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as the value of X when casting it without paying its mana cost.
  • If you cast a card "without paying its mana cost," you can't choose to cast it for any alternative costs. You can, however, pay additional costs. If the card has any mandatory additional costs, you must pay those to cast the card.
  • If you cast the card, you do so as part of the resolution of Dreadhorde Arcanist's triggered ability. You can't wait to cast it later in the turn. Timing permissions based on a card's type are ignored, and the spell will resolve before blockers are declared.
  • The instant or sorcery card you target must have mana value less than or equal to Dreadhorde Arcanist's power immediately after Dreadhorde Arcanist has attacked. Any other abilities that trigger when creatures you control attack won't have resolved yet.

    Menace

    Rules

  • If an instant or sorcery card you cast this way goes to a zone other than exile or a graveyard, perhaps because one of its abilities says to put it into its owner's hand, it won't be exiled. This is true even if the card would be put into a graveyard later that turn.
  • If an instant or sorcery card you cast this way is countered, it will be exiled.
  • If the instant or sorcery card has {X} in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as its value.
  • If you can't cast the target instant or sorcery card, perhaps because there are no legal targets available, or if you choose not to cast it, it will remain in your graveyard.
  • If you cast a card "without paying its mana cost," you can't pay alternative costs such as surge costs. You can pay additional costs. If the card has mandatory additional costs, you must pay those.
  • You cast the card during the resolution of the enters-the-battlefield ability, not later in the turn. If it's a sorcery card, ignore the timing restrictions based on it being a sorcery card. Other timing restrictions, such as "Cast [this card] only during combat," must be followed.

  • If Isochron Scepter leaves the battlefield while the activated ability is on the stack, the ability can still make a copy. On the other hand, if the imprinted card leaves the exile zone while the activated ability is on the stack, the copy can't be made.
  • If a spell has {X} in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as the value of X when casting it without paying its mana cost.
  • If you cast a spell "without paying its mana cost," you can't choose to cast it for any alternative costs. You can, however, pay additional costs. If the card has any mandatory additional costs, those must be paid to cast the spell.
  • If you don't want to cast the copy, you can choose not to; the copy ceases to exist the next time state-based actions are checked.
  • You cast the copy while the ability is resolving and still on the stack. You can't wait to cast it later in the turn.
