6 Cards Found

AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Emperor Mihail II

Equivalent cards to Emperor Mihail II (Mono-Blue, Merfolk synergy, allows playing Merfolk from the top and creates tokens) include:
1. Augury Adept — Draws cards and creates card advantage in Blue.
2. Lorthos, the Tidemaker — Big Mono-Blue Merfolk; not identical, but Merfolk, with strong board impact.
3. Deeproot Waters — Creates Merfolk tokens when you cast another Merfolk.
4. Mystic Forge — Play the top card of your library if it's an artifact (similar top-deck effect for artifacts).
5. Vodalian Hexcatcher — Merfolk tribal support.


Reason: No card does exactly what Emperor Mihail II does for Merfolk, but these cards support Merfolk or have similar effects for Mono-Blue decks.

  • The ability of Deeproot Waters resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger.
  • If an effect refers to a "[subtype] spell" or "[subtype] card," it refers only to a spell or card that has that subtype. For example, March of the Drowned is a card that benefits Pirates and features Pirates in its illustration, but it isn't a Pirate card.

    Rules

  • Emperor Mihail II lets you look at the top card of your library whenever you want (with one restriction—see below), even if you don't have priority. This action doesn't use the stack. Knowing what that card is becomes part of the information you have access to, just like you can look at the cards in your hand.
  • If the top card of your library changes while you're casting a spell, playing a land, or activating an ability, you can't look at the new top card until you finish doing so. This means that if you cast the top card of your library, you can't look at the next one until you're done paying for that spell.
  • The last ability triggers whenever you cast any Merfolk spell, not just when you cast a Merfolk spell from the top of your library. It will resolve before the spell that caused it to trigger, even if that spell has been countered or otherwise left the stack.
  • You must follow the normal timing permissions and restrictions of the cards you play from your library.

  • If the top card of your library has a morph ability, you can cast it face down from the top of your library, even if it's normally not a colorless card.
  • Mystic Forge lets you look at the top card of your library whenever you want (with one restriction—see below), even if you don't have priority. This action doesn't use the stack.
