8 Cards Found

AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Lagrella, the Magpie

Equivalent cards to Lagrella, the Magpie (Bant: white/blue/green) that exile creatures temporarily and return them later include:

  • Rumor Gatherer (Limited overlap: similar to card draw/scry, but no exile)
  • Journey to Nowhere (white; exiles a creature, but doesn't return it)
  • Skyclave Apparition (white; exiles and returns a token after it leaves)
  • Fiend Hunter (white; exiles a creature and returns it when it dies)
  • Banisher Priest (white; same as above)
  • Elite Guardmage (UW overlap, but doesn't exile)
  • Reflector Mage (UW; bounces, doesn’t exile—similar tempo effect)

Closest mechanics for Lagrella, the Magpie are found in Fiend Hunter, Banisher Priest, and Skyclave Apparition. All provide temporary exile of creatures, usually in mono-white. No exact replacement in Bant with the same enter/leave exile effect and benefit, but these are closest in functionality.

  • Auras attached to the exiled permanent will be put into their owners' graveyards. Any Equipment will become unattached and remain on the battlefield. Any counters on the exiled permanent will cease to exist. When the card returns to the battlefield, it will be a new object with no connection to the card that was exiled.
  • If Banisher Priest leaves the battlefield before its triggered ability resolves, the target permanent won't be exiled.
  • If a token is exiled this way, it will cease to exist and won't return to the battlefield.
  • If an Aura is exiled this way, its owner chooses what it will enchant as it returns to the battlefield. An Aura put onto the battlefield this way doesn't target anything (so it could be attached to a permanent with shroud, for example), but the Aura's enchant ability restricts what it can be attached to. If the Aura can't legally be attached to anything, it remains in exile for the rest of the game.

    Rules

  • If Fiend Hunter leaves the battlefield before its first ability has resolved, its second ability will trigger and do nothing. Then its first ability will resolve and exile the target creature indefinitely. This is different from abilities on other cards that exile a permanent "until" something happens.
  • If a token is exiled this way, it won't return to the battlefield.
  • In a multiplayer game, if you lose the game, the creature exiled with Fiend Hunter remains exiled indefinitely. This is also different from abilities on other cards that exile a permanent "until" something happens.
  • Once the exiled creature returns, it's considered a new object with no relation to the object that it was. Auras attached to the exiled creature will be put into their owners' graveyards. Equipment attached to the exiled creature will become unattached and remain on the battlefield. Any counters on the exiled creature will cease to exist.

  • "This way" refers to cards entering the battlefield as a result of Lagrella leaving the battlefield.
  • The last part of Lagrella's ability is a delayed triggered ability that is set up as its enters-the-battlefield ability resolves. It will trigger when Lagrella leaves the battlefield even if it's somehow lost its abilities or become a copy of something else.

    Rules

  • If the returned creature had no name while it was on the battlefield (likely because the creature was face down), its owner can still cast face-down creature spells with morph or megamorph, or cast the same card face up, before your next turn.
  • In several cases, the name of the creature that was returned won’t match the name of that card once it’s back in its owner’s hand. For example, if the card was copying another creature, it will probably have a different name in its owner’s hand and can be cast again before your next turn. The same is true if a double-faced card with its back face up is returned to its owner’s hand this way.
  • Reflector Mage’s ability doesn’t stop any player from playing lands (in the case that the returned creature was also a land).

  • If Skyclave Apparition's first ability exiled more than one card owned by a single player, that player creates a token with power and toughness equal to the sum of those cards' mana values. If the first ability exiled cards owned by more than one player, each of those players creates a token with power and toughness equal to the sum of the mana values of all cards exiled by the first ability.
  • If a creature on the battlefield has {X} in its mana cost, X is considered to be 0.
  • If there's no exiled card when Skyclave Apparition leaves the battlefield (most likely because its first ability hasn't resolved yet), no player creates a token.
