"Find me cards equivalent to: Ionize"

Equivalent cards to Ionize (type: Instant, colors: Red/Blue):
1. Counterflux – (U/R Instant, counters spells, can't be countered itself).
2. Render Silent – (W/U Instant, counters spells, opponent can't cast spells this turn).
3. Unsubstantiate – (U Instant, returns spells but doesn't counter).
4. Dovin's Veto – (W/U Instant, uncounterable, counters noncreature spells).

Closest: Counterflux is the most direct equivalent in the U/R color pair but does not deal damage. No R/U instant counters while dealing damage besides Ionize, so it's unique.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Overload

    Rules

  • Because a spell with overload doesn't target when its overload cost is paid, it may affect permanents with hexproof or with protection from the appropriate color.
  • If you are instructed to cast a spell with overload "without paying its mana cost," you can't choose to pay its overload cost instead.
  • If you don't pay the overload cost of a spell with overload, that spell will have a single target. If you pay the overload cost, the spell won't have any targets.
  • To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you're paying (such as an overload cost), add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The mana value of the spell remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.

    Rules

  • A spell that “can’t be countered” is a legal target for Render Silent. The spell won’t be countered when Render Silent resolves, but that spell’s controller won’t be able to cast spells for the rest of the turn.
  • If the spell is an illegal target when Render Silent tries to resolve (because it’s been countered by another spell, for example), Render Silent won’t resolve and none of its effects will happen.
  • Render Silent doesn’t stop any player from casting spells in response to Render Silent before it resolves.
  • The affected player can still activate abilities, including abilities of cards in their hand (such as bloodrush abilities), and the player can still play lands.
  • You must be able to target a spell to cast Render Silent.

  • If a spell is returned to its owner's hand, it's removed from the stack and thus will not resolve. The spell isn't countered; it just no longer exists. This works against a spell that can't be countered.
