5 Cards Found

AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Turn the Tide

Equivalent cards to Turn the Tide (blue, instant, enemy creatures get -2/-0):
1. Illusionist’s Stratagem – Similar blue instant, though it blinks creatures instead of reducing power.
2. Disperse – Blue instant, bounces a nonland permanent for tempo.
3. Downpour – Blue instant, taps up to three target creatures.
4. Sleep – Blue sorcery, taps all creatures target player controls; they don't untap.
5. Ensnare – Blue instant, returns lands to untap creatures.


Reason:
True direct equivalents are rare; blue typically uses tapping, bouncing, or power-reducing effects. Closest are cards reducing power or controlling creature actions.
