AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Nicol Bolas, the Ravager

Cards equivalent to Nicol Bolas, the Ravager (Grixis colors, transforming, impactful):
1. Nicol Bolas, the Arisen (the back side, same card)
2. Archangel Avacyn (transform creature, white/red, impactful ability)
3. Jace, Vryn's Prodigy (blue, transforms, powerful ability)
4. Arvad the Cursed (legendary, Mardu colors, not transform, but multicolor and powerful, close in theme)
5. Drana, Liberator of Malakir (black, flying, game-changing, but not transform)

Closest direct equivalents in Grixis: Only Nicol Bolas versions are direct, but other transform planeswalkers in blue, black, or red (e.g., Chandra, Fire of Kaladesh) offer similar gameplay twists.


Reason: No exact Grixis transforming legends, but these are functionally similar or in the same color strategy.

    Flying

    Rules

  • Drana's last ability triggers after combat damage has been dealt, so only attacking creatures that survive the combat damage step in which Drana deals combat damage will have +1/+1 counters put on them.
  • The +1/+1 counter won't change how much damage Drana or any other attacking creature with first strike or double strike deals during that combat damage step. However, the +1/+1 counters that are put on attacking creatures without first strike will affect the damage those creatures deal during the regular combat damage step.
