"Find me cards equivalent to: Nardole, Resourceful Cyborg"

Equivalent cards in blue (U), with similar abilities:
1. Nardole, Resourceful Cyborg — Mana ability based on counters, undying, Doctor’s companion.
2. Grand Arbiter Augustin IV — Tax/support for casting noncreature spells, though not artifact or undying.
3. Unctus, Grand Metatect — Blue, artifact creature, grants mana-related effects for tapping (though not exactly like Nardole).
4. Etherium Sculptor — Blue, artifact creature, supports casting artifact spells with cost reduction (not mana generation).
5. Traxos, Scourge of Kroog — Artifact creature with synergy to artifacts, though not mana or undying.
6. Master Transmuter — Blue artifact creature with activated ability, strong synergy in artifact decks.

No other blue legendary artifact creatures match all of Nardole’s unique features (mana ability with counters, undying, and dual commander ability). Closest comparisons for specific features are as above.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Undying

    Rules

  • Although Doctor's companion is a new variant of the partner ability, the rules for partner have not otherwise changed. Notably, Time Lord Doctors and cards with Doctor's companion do not interact with cards which have another partner ability.
  • An effect that checks whether you control your commander is satisfied if you control one or both of your two commanders.
  • Both commanders start in the command zone, and the remaining 98 cards (or 58 cards in a Commander Draft game) of your deck are shuffled to become your library.
  • If something refers to your commander while you have two commanders, it refers to one of them of your choice. If you are instructed to perform an action on your commander (e.g. put it from the command zone into your hand due to Command Beacon), you choose one of your commanders at the time the effect happens.
  • If your Commander deck has two commanders, you can include only cards whose own color identities are also found in your commanders' combined color identities.
  • Once the game begins, your two commanders are tracked separately. If you cast one, you won't have to pay an additional {2} the first time you cast the other. A player loses the game after having been dealt 21 combat damage from any one of them, not from both of them combined.
  • The Doctor's companion ability allows you to have two commanders if one has the ability and the other is a legendary creature that is a Time Lord Doctor and has no other creature types. Creatures with the changeling ability, for example, can't be a second commander this way.

    Trample

    Rules

  • A card, spell, or permanent is historic if it has the legendary supertype, the artifact card type, or the Saga subtype. Having two of those qualities doesn't make an object more historic than another or provide an additional bonus—an object either is historic or it isn't.
  • An ability that triggers "whenever you cast a historic spell" doesn't trigger if a historic card is put onto the battlefield without being cast.
  • Lands are never cast, so abilities that trigger "whenever you cast a historic spell" won't trigger if you play a legendary land. They also won't trigger if a card on the battlefield transforms into a legendary land, as the Ixalan and Rivals of Ixalan double-faced cards do.
  • Some abilities trigger "whenever you cast a historic spell." Such an ability resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger. It resolves even if that spell is countered.
