"Find me cards equivalent to: Matoya, Archon Elder"

Here are equivalent blue (U) legendary creatures related to scrying, surveilling, or drawing cards, including Matoya, Archon Elder:
1. Matoya, Archon Elder — Whenever you scry or surveil, draw a card.
2. Narset, Parter of Veils — Each opponent can't draw more than one card each turn.
3. Keiga, the Tide Star — Draws cards by controlling death triggers, but not tied directly to scry/surveil.
4. Yennett, Cryptic Sovereign (Esper, but includes U) — Lets you reveal and sometimes draw from the top of your deck.
5. Alhammarret, High Arbiter — Not directly related to scry but is a blue legendary that manipulates cards.

Closest equivalents with direct card draw on scry/surveil in mono-blue are limited; most scry/surveil synergy is found with Jace, Wielder of Mysteries or Nadir Kraken but they’re not legendary or exactly the same.


Reason: Scry/surveil triggers are rare for legendary blue creatures; Matoya, Archon Elder is the most direct. Most blue legends focus on raw draw or manipulation, not triggers on scry/surveil.

  • Alhammarret's second ability happens as Alhammarret enters the battlefield. No one can cast spells or activate abilities between the time a card is named and the time that Alhammarret's last ability starts to work.
  • Although spells with the chosen name can't be cast, permanent cards with that name can still be put onto the battlefield by a spell or ability.
  • If your opponents have no nonland cards in their hands, you can't choose a card name. Alhammarret's last ability won't stop any spells from being cast in that case.
  • You choose one card name, not one name per opponent.
  • Your opponents can still cast a card with the chosen name face down if it has a morph ability. A card with the chosen name can also be manifested.

    Rules

  • Follow the instructions in the order listed on Jace’s first loyalty ability: if you target yourself, you’ll put the top two cards of your library into your graveyard and then draw a card.
  • If for some reason you can’t win the game (because your opponent controls Platinum Angel, for example), you won’t lose for having tried to draw a card from a library with no cards in it. The draw was still replaced.
  • If the target player is an illegal target when Jace’s first loyalty ability tries to resolve, it doesn’t resolve. You won’t draw a card.
  • If two or more players control Jace, Wielder of Mysteries and each player is instructed to draw a number of cards, first the player whose turn it is draws that many cards. If this causes that player to win the game instead, the game is immediately over. If the game isn’t over yet, repeat this process for each other player in turn order.
  • If your library has fewer than seven cards in it while resolving Jace’s last ability, and Jace has already left the battlefield, you’ll draw as many cards as you can and then win the game before state-based actions would cause you to lose the game for trying to draw from an empty library.

    Rules

  • If an opponent hasn't drawn any cards in a turn and a spell or ability instructs that player to draw multiple cards, that player will just draw one card. However, if the draws are optional, the player can't choose to draw, even if they could draw one card this way.
  • Narset will "see" cards drawn by opponents earlier in the turn she entered the battlefield, although Narset can't affect cards drawn before she entered the battlefield. For example, if an opponent draws two cards, then Narset enters the battlefield, that opponent can't draw more cards that turn, but the two drawn cards are unaffected.
  • Replacement effects (such as that of Underrealm Lich or the first ability of Jace, Wielder of Mysteries) can't be used to replace draws that Narset disallows. However, if an opponent's first draw is replaced (by Underrealm Lich's ability, for example), that draw didn't happen and Narset won't stop the next draw (which may also be replaced by Underrealm Lich's ability).
  • Your opponents can each draw a maximum of one card each on each player's turn. Subsequent card draws during that turn are ignored.

    Flying Menace Vigilance

    Rules

  • Because all attackers are chosen at once, a spell cast this way can't affect which creatures you can attack with, but it can affect which creatures will be able to block.
  • If a spell has {X} in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as the value of X if you cast it without paying its mana cost.
  • If the revealed card doesn't have an odd mana value or if that card does but you choose not to cast it, you draw a card. Keep in mind that revealing a card doesn't cause it to change zones. This means that the card you draw will be the card you revealed.
  • If you cast a card "without paying its mana cost," you can't choose to cast it for any alternative costs, such as evoke costs. You can, however, pay additional costs. If the card has any mandatory additional costs, such as that of Tormenting Voice, those must be paid to cast it.
  • If you wish to cast the revealed card without paying its mana cost, you must cast it while Yennett's triggered ability is resolving; you can't cast for free it later in the turn.

    Flying, vigilance, menace Whenever Yennett attacks, reveal the top card of your library. You may cast it without paying its mana cost if its mana value is odd. If you don't cast it, draw a card.
