"Find me cards equivalent to: Spectral Arcanist"

Equivalent cards to Spectral Arcanist (Blue, Spirit Wizard, graveyard spell-casting):
1. Archaeomancer — Returns instant or sorcery from your graveyard to your hand (not free).
2. Scholar of the Lost Trove — Casts instant, sorcery, or artifact from your graveyard for free (mana value restriction, but not Spirit-based).
3. Mnemonic Wall — Returns instant or sorcery from your graveyard to your hand.
4. Scholar of Ages — Returns two instants or sorceries from your graveyard to your hand.


Reason: All are blue creatures that help you re-use spells from your graveyard, though none replicate exactly the free-cast + Spirit-synergy of Spectral Arcanist.

  • If a spell has {X} in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as the value of X when casting it without paying its mana cost.
  • If you cast a spell “without paying its mana cost,” you can’t choose to cast it for any alternative costs. You can, however, pay additional costs. If the card has any mandatory additional costs, those must be paid to cast the spell.
  • If you cast an artifact spell this way, it won’t be exiled if it would be put into your graveyard this turn.
  • If you wish to cast the target card, you must cast it while the triggered ability is resolving. You can’t cast it later in the turn.
