AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Retraction Helix

Cards equivalent to Retraction Helix (same color, similar effect):

  • Banishing Knack (lets you tap a creature to return another nonland permanent to its owner's hand; also blue, and instant)
  • Hull Breach Ritualist (a blue creature with a similar activated ability, but not a spell)


Reason: Banishing Knack is nearly identical but with a different trigger. Hull Breach Ritualist gives a reusable bounce on a blue creature.

    Rules

  • The targeted creature’s controller, not Banishing Knack’s controller, is the one who can activate the creature’s new ability.
  • “Summoning sickness” applies. The new ability can’t be activated unless the targeted creature has been under its controller’s control since the beginning of that player’s most recent turn or it has haste.
