"Find me cards equivalent to: Spreading Algae"

There are no direct equivalents to Spreading Algae in green with the same effect and all attributes (type, color, recursion).

Closest in spirit (same color, Aura, land destruction):

  • Contaminated Ground (Enchantment — Aura, black, turns land into a Swamp and damages when tapped; but not green or recurring)
  • Choking Vines (green, not an Aura, but destroys tapped creatures)
  • Song of the Dryads (green, Aura, changes a permanent into a Forest, but doesn't destroy or return itself)


Reason: Spreading Algae is uniquely green, enchants Swamps, destroys them, and returns itself—all rare combined effects in green. No direct replacements exist.

    Rules

  • Choking Vines will make any creatures it targets become blocked, even if the creature had blocking restrictions on it. For example, you can make a creature with Islandwalk become blocked even if the defending player has Islands. This is because evasion abilities only prevent creatures from being assigned to block them.
  • You can declare zero targets, with X=0.
  • Choking Vines isn’t particularly effective against creatures with trample. Since the creature with trample has no blocker to assign damage to, all the damage will be assigned to the defending player.
  • If a previously unblocked creature becomes blocked as a result of Choking Vines, any “When this creature becomes blocked” abilities that creature has will trigger. Any “When this creature becomes blocked by a creature” abilities that creature has won’t trigger.
  • You may target a blocked creature with Choking Vines. Choking Vines will deal 1 damage to it, and have no other effect on it.

    Rules

  • Contaminated Ground's last ability triggers whenever the enchanted land becomes tapped for any reason, not just when it's tapped for mana.
  • If, while casting a spell or activating an ability, the enchanted land's controller taps the land for mana to pay for it, Contaminated Ground's ability triggers and goes on the stack on top of that spell or ability. Contaminated Ground's ability will resolve first.
  • On the other hand, the enchanted land's controller may tap the land for mana, let Contaminated Ground's ability trigger and go on the stack, then spend that mana to cast an instant or activate an ability in response. In that case, that instant or ability will resolve first.
  • The enchanted land loses its existing land types and any abilities printed on it. It now has the land type Swamp and has the ability to tap to add {B}. Contaminated Ground doesn't change the enchanted land's name or whether it's legendary, basic, or snow.
