"Find me cards equivalent to: Illusory Ambusher"

Cards similar to Illusory Ambusher (blue flash creatures that draw cards when damaged or have a related effect):
1. Chasm Skulker – Draws cards and creates tokens when it dies, but not on damage.
2. Aethersnipe – Has an ETB effect with card advantage potential, can be cast as an instant.
3. Dream Eater – Flash, surveils (not card draw), but interacts with opponent’s board.
4. Sea-Dasher Octopus – Flash, draws cards when it deals combat damage.


Reason: Very few blue creatures draw cards based on damage, but these have similar draw or flash features. Illusory Ambusher is unique for its exact effect.

    Rules

  • If enough -1/-1 counters are put on Chasm Skulker at the same time to make its toughness 0 or less, the number of +1/+1 counters on it before it got any -1/-1 counters will be used to determine how many Squid tokens you get. For example, if there are two +1/+1 counters on Chasm Skulker and it gets three -1/-1 counters, you'll get two Squid tokens.
  • If you draw multiple cards, the first ability will trigger that many times. Each of these abilities will cause a +1/+1 counter to be put on Chasm Skulker.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Flash Flying Surveil

    Rules

  • Dream Eater's reflexive triggered ability triggers even if you have fewer than four cards in your library to surveil.
  • Dream Eater's triggered ability goes on the stack without a target. While that ability is resolving, after you've surveilled, the reflexive triggered ability triggers and you pick a target nonland permanent to be returned to its owner's hand. This is different from effects that say "If you do . . ." in that you choose the target after having surveilled.
  • When you surveil, you may put all the cards you look at back on top of your library, you may put all of those cards into your graveyard, or you may put some of those cards on top and the rest of them into your graveyard.
  • You perform the actions stated on a card in sequence. For some spells and abilities, you'll surveil last. For others, you'll surveil and then perform other actions.
