"Find me cards equivalent to: Mishra's Research Desk"

The most equivalent cards to Mishra's Research Desk (colorless artifact, impulse draw, unearth) are:
1. Ichor Wellspring (Colorless Artifact, draws a card on ETB and when sent to graveyard, synergy with sacrifice).
2. Chromatic Star (Colorless Artifact, {1}, {T}, Sacrifice: Draw a card. Fixes mana instead of impulse draw).
3. Experimental Synthesizer (Red Artifact, not colorless, but similar: impulse draw on ETB and when sacrificed; has {2}{R} to return it).
4. Implement of Combustion (Red Artifact, {R}, Sacrifice: Draw a card and ping).
5. Mazemind Tome (Colorless Artifact, slow draw, no impulse, but repeatable).

Closest true equivalents for colorless:

  • Ichor Wellspring
  • Chromatic Star
  • Mazemind Tome
    But none have impulse draw + unearth. Only Experimental Synthesizer is functionally closest, but it's red.

    Reason:     Impulse draw is rare on colorless artifacts; effect is mostly in red.

  • An Implement’s last ability triggers no matter why it’s put into a graveyard from the battlefield. You don’t have to activate its first ability.
  • If you activate an Implement’s first ability, you’ll draw a card from its second ability before the first ability resolves. If the first ability has a target, you need a legal target to activate that ability, and you choose that target before seeing what card you’ll draw.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Unearth

    Rules

  • Activating a card's unearth ability isn't the same as casting that card. The unearth ability is put on the stack, but the card is not. Spells and abilities that interact with activated abilities (such as Defabricate's second mode) will interact with unearth, but spells and abilities that interact with spells (such as Scatter Ray) will not.
  • At the beginning of the next end step, a permanent returned to the battlefield with unearth is exiled. This is a delayed triggered ability, and it can be countered by effects such as Defabricate that counter triggered abilities. If the ability is countered, the permanent will stay on the battlefield and the delayed triggered ability won't trigger again. However, the replacement effect will still exile the permanent if it eventually leaves the battlefield.
  • If a permanent returned to the battlefield with unearth would leave the battlefield for any reason, it's exiled instead—unless the spell or ability that's causing the permanent to leave the battlefield is actually trying to exile it! In that case, it succeeds at exiling it. If that spell or ability later returns the card to the battlefield (as Static Net might, for example), the permanent card will return to the battlefield as a new object with no relation to its previous existence. The unearth effects will no longer apply to it.
  • If you activate a card's unearth ability but that card is removed from your graveyard before the ability resolves, that unearth ability will do nothing as it resolves.
  • Unearth grants haste to the permanent that's returned to the battlefield (even if it's not a creature card). However, neither of the "exile" abilities is granted to that permanent. If that permanent loses all its abilities, it will still be exiled at the beginning of the next end step, and if it would leave the battlefield, it is still exiled instead.
  • You must pay all costs and follow all normal timing rules for spells cast using the first ability of Mishra's Research Desk.
