"Find me cards equivalent to: Phalanx Formation"

Here are cards similar to Phalanx Formation (Instant, White, grants double strike or a strong combat keyword):
1. Concerted Effort — Grants all creatures abilities, including double strike, but is an enchantment, not instant.
2. Unbreakable Formation — Instant, gives indestructible and can give a +1/+1 counter and vigilance.
3. Righteousness — Instant, gives +7/+7 (strong combat buff).
4. Acrobatic Maneuver — Instant, flickers a creature (synergy with ETB, white theme).
5. Defiant Strike — Instant, gives +1/+0 and draws.

There are very few white instants that grant double strike directly like Phalanx Formation. For multi-target double strike at instant speed, Phalanx Formation is unique in white. Most similar effects are on auras or sorceries.

  • Creatures keep all abilities granted this way until the end of the turn, even if Concerted Effort or the original creature with that ability leaves the battlefield.
  • For example, a player controls three creatures when Concerted Effort’s ability resolves: one creature with flying and protection from red, one with islandwalk and protection from green; and one with vigilance. All three creatures will have flying, islandwalk, vigilance, protection from red, and protection from green until the end of the turn.
  • In Two-Headed Giant, triggers only once per upkeep, not once for each player.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Rules

  • If a spell or ability allows you to cast a strive spell without paying its mana cost, you must pay the additional costs for any targets beyond the first.
  • If all of the spell's targets are illegal when the spell tries to resolve, it won't resolve and none of its effects will happen. If one or more of its targets are legal when it tries to resolve, the spell will resolve and affect only those legal targets. It will have no effect on any illegal targets.
  • If such a spell is copied, and the effect that copies the spell allows a player to choose new targets for the copy, the number of targets can't be changed. The player may change any number of the targets, including all of them or none of them. If, for one of the targets, the player can't choose a new legal target, then it remains unchanged (even if the current target is illegal).
  • The mana cost and mana value of strive spells don't change no matter how many targets they have. Strive abilities affect only what you pay.
  • You choose how many targets each spell with a strive ability has and what those targets are as you cast it. It's legal to cast such a spell with no targets, although this is rarely a good idea. You can't choose the same target more than once for a single strive spell.

Unless that creature leaves combat, it continues to be a blocking creature through the end of combat step, even if the creature or creatures it was blocking are no longer on the battlefield or have otherwise left combat.

  • Unbreakable Formation affects only creatures you control at the time it resolves. Creatures you begin to control later in the turn won't gain indestructible or vigilance and they won't get a +1/+1 counter.
  • Addendum abilities of instant spells apply while the spell is resolving, not immediately after casting it. If the spell is countered, you don't get the addendum bonus.
  • If an effect copies a spell with an addendum ability while it's on the stack, the copy wasn't cast at all, so you won't get the addendum bonus.
