Equivalent cards to Unexpected Assistance (blue, instant, card draw, with Convoke or similar cost reduction):
1. Secret Rendezvous (not blue, but draws three, white) — doesn't fit color
2. Convoke the Spirits (not blue, different effect)
3. Of One Mind (blue, instant, can cost {U} if you control human/nonhuman) — Draw two cards.
4. Thought Scour (blue, instant, draw one, not three)
5. Divination (blue, but sorcery)

Closest blue instant equivalents by effect/cost reduction:

  • Of One Mind (draws 2, not 3, discount mechanic)

    Rules

  • Of One Mind is unaffected if you no longer control a Human and non-Human creature after you've cast it.
  • Once you announce that you're casting Of One Mind, no player may take actions until the spell has been paid for. Notably, opponents can't try to change whether you control a Human and a non-Human creature.
  • To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you're paying, add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions (such as that of Of One Mind). The mana value of the spell remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.

    Delve

    Rules

  • Because delve isn't an alternative cost, it can be used in conjunction with alternative costs, such as flashback. It can also be used to pay for additional costs that include generic mana.
  • Delve doesn't change a spell's mana cost or mana value. For example, Treasure Cruise's mana value is 8 even if you exiled three cards to cast it.
  • You can exile cards to pay only for generic mana, and you can't exile more cards than the generic mana requirement of a spell with delve. For example, you can't exile more than seven cards from your graveyard to cast Treasure Cruise unless an effect has increased its cost.
