7 Cards Found

AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Staff of Zegon

Equivalent cards to Staff of Zegon (colorless artifact that gives -2/-2 until end of turn):
1. Staff of Nin – Colorless artifact, grants repeatable effect, though it draws cards and pings instead of giving -2/-2.
2. Cursed Rack – Colorless artifact that reduces hand size (not stats, but also a negative modifier).
3. Cranial Plating – Colorless artifact that modifies power/toughness (positive, not negative, but similar interaction).
4. Power Matrix – Colorless artifact that changes power/toughness until end of turn.


Reason: Exact -2/-2 effects in artifacts are rare; above cards provide stat modification or repeated minor effects as Staff of Zegon. If you want -2/-2, Ratchet Bomb or Nevinyrral's Disk (board wipes) might also be of interest.

    Rules

  • Cranial Plating is counted by its own ability, so it gives at least +1/+0.
  • Cranial Plating's first activated ability is similar to an equip ability, but it's not an equip ability. Most importantly, it can be activated any time you could cast an instant, even during another player's turn.

    Rules

  • The effect of lowering the maximum hand size makes it so the player discards down to 4 cards (instead of the usual 7) during the cleanup step.
  • You choose one opposing player just as this card is entering and it only affects that one player. This choice is not changed even if this card changes controllers. It becomes useless but stays on the battlefield if the chosen player leaves the game.
  • If multiple effects modify your hand size, apply them in timestamp order. For example, if you put Null Profusion (an enchantment that says your maximum hand size is two) onto the battlefield and then a player puts Cursed Rack onto the battlefield choosing you, your maximum hand size will be four. However, if those permanents entered in the opposite order, your maximum hand size would be two.
