"Find me cards equivalent to: Great Intelligence's Plan"

Equivalent cards to Great Intelligence's Plan (Blue/Black Sorcery, draw and opponent choice):
1. Siphon Insight – Lets you play cards from your opponent's deck, blue/black.
2. Notion Rain – Draws cards and surveils.
3. Dark Deal – Opponent discards and draws, black.
4. Painful Quandary – Opponent faces discard/life loss each time they cast a spell.

None are exact, but these are closest in color and effect range (draw, discard, villainous choices). Great Intelligence's Plan itself is included. There are few/no perfect equivalents because of the villainous choice mechanic and free spell cast.

    Rules

  • A player facing a villainous choice can always choose either option, even if one or both of the options are impossible. For example, if one of the options is to sacrifice a creature, a player who controls no creatures can still choose that option.
  • If a spell or ability requires multiple players to face a villainous choice, the result is a little different from other effects in Magic. In that case, the first player in turn order makes their choice and the action for that choice is performed before the next player makes their choice. Then each of the remaining players repeat this process in turn order.
  • When a player faces a villainous choice, they first choose one of the two options, then all actions in the chosen option are performed.

    Flashback

    Rules

  • Only you get to look at the exiled card. Its owner doesn't get to know what it is while it is in exile unless you tell them.
  • You don't have to disclose which card you exiled and which card you put on the bottom of the library. For example, if your opponent knows what the top card of their library is and you cast Siphon Insight, you don't have to tell them where you put that card.
  • You may play the card even if it is a land.
  • You must still follow all normal timing rules to play a card exiled with Siphon Insight.
  • "Flashback [cost]" means "You may cast this card from your graveyard if the resulting spell is an instant or sorcery spell by paying [cost] rather than paying its mana cost" and "If the flashback cost was paid, exile this card instead of putting it anywhere else any time it would leave the stack."
  • A spell cast using flashback will always be exiled afterward, whether it resolves, is countered, or leaves the stack in some other way.
  • If a card with flashback is put into your graveyard during your turn, you can cast it if it's legal to do so before any other player can take any actions.
  • To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost (such as a flashback cost) you're paying, add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The mana value of the spell is determined only by its mana cost, no matter what the total cost to cast the spell was.
  • You can cast a spell using flashback even if it was somehow put into your graveyard without having been cast.
  • You must still follow any timing restrictions and permissions, including those based on the card's type. For instance, you can cast a sorcery using flashback only when you could normally cast a sorcery.

    Look at the top two cards of target opponent's library. Exile one of them face down and put the other on the bottom of that library. You may play the exiled card for as long as it remains exiled, and you may spend mana as though it were mana of any color to cast that spell. Flashback
