6 Cards Found

AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Mukotai Ambusher

Equivalent cards to Mukotai Ambusher (black, with life linking, ninja, and potential cost reduction via ninjutsu) include:
1. Ink-Eyes, Servant of Oni – Black, Ninja, has Ninjutsu, and relevant combat abilities.
2. Fallen Shinobi – Black/Blue, Ninja, has Ninjutsu; strong combat trigger.
3. Mistblade Shinobi – Blue, Ninja, Ninjutsu (not black, but similar ability).
4. Throat Slitter – Black, Ninja, Ninjutsu.
5. Moonlit Strider (Spirit with a similar cost reduction ability, but not a ninja or black).


Reason: These cards share Ninjutsu or ninja tribal effects in the same color, or similar abilities—especially Throat Slitter and Ink-Eyes, Servant of Oni. Few black ninjas have lifelink, so most equivalents match on type and ability, not always lifelink.

    Rules

  • Although the Ninja is attacking, it was never declared as an attacking creature (for purposes of abilities that trigger whenever a creature attacks, for example).
  • Any cards you don't cast will remain in exile.
  • As you activate a ninjutsu ability, you reveal the Ninja card in your hand and return the attacking creature. The Ninja isn't put onto the battlefield until the ability resolves. If it leaves your hand before then, it won't enter the battlefield at all.
  • Casting an exiled card causes it to leave exile. You can't cast it multiple times.
  • Fallen Shinobi's triggered ability doesn't change when you can play the exiled cards. For example, if a sorcery card is exiled, you can cast it only during your main phase when the stack is empty. If a land card is exiled, you can play it only during your main phase and only if you have an available land play remaining.
  • If a creature in combat has first strike or double strike, you can activate the ninjutsu ability during the first-strike combat damage step. The Ninja will deal combat damage during the regular combat damage step, even if it has first strike.
  • The creature with ninjutsu enters the battlefield attacking the same player or planeswalker that the returned creature was attacking. This is a rule specific to ninjutsu; in other cases, when a creature is put onto the battlefield attacking, that creature's controller chooses which player or planeswalker it's attacking.
  • The ninjutsu ability can be activated during the declare blockers step, combat damage step, or end of combat step. If you wait until after the declare blockers step, because all combat damage is dealt at once, the Ninja won't normally deal combat damage.
  • The ninjutsu ability can be activated only after blockers have been declared. Before then, attacking creatures are neither blocked nor unblocked.
