"Find me cards equivalent to: Valkyrie Aerial Unit"

Equivalent cards (same color: blue, and artifact creature, similar abilities):
1. Valkyrie Aerial Unit (your reference)
2. Thought Monitor — Artifact Creature — Construct, blue, has flying, and an “affinity for artifacts”-like ability (“Affinity for artifacts”, draws 2 cards when it enters instead of surveil).
3. Etherium Sculptor — Artifact Creature — Vedalken Artificer, blue, lowers cost of artifacts (not exactly affinity), no flying or surveil.
4. Emry, Lurker of the Loch — Legendary Creature (has cost reduction based on artifacts, self-mill), blue. Not flying and not surveil, but “enters and mills cards” is close.


Reason: True affinity for artifacts and blue artifact flyers with ETB surveil are rare. “Thought Monitor” is the closest direct comparison.

    Rules

  • Casting the target card causes it to leave your graveyard and become a new object. You can't cast it again if it returns to your graveyard this turn.
  • If Emry's last ability targets an artifact land card, you can't play it. Effects that allow you to "cast" a card don't allow you to play a land card.
  • Once you announce that you're casting a spell, no player may take actions until the spell has been paid for. Notably, opponents can't try to change by how much Emry's cost is reduced.
  • The cost reduction ability reduces only the generic mana in Emry's cost. The colored mana must still be paid.
  • 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 Emry). The mana value of the spell remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.
  • You must follow the normal timing permissions and restrictions for the target artifact card. Unless it has flash, you'll most likely only be able to cast it during your main phase while the stack is empty.
  • You'll still pay all costs for a spell cast this way, including additional costs. You may also pay alternative costs if any are available.

  • This effect can reduce only the generic portion of the artifact spell's total cost.
  • This effect doesn't change the mana cost or mana value of an artifact spell. Rather, it reduces the total cost of the spell, which is the amount you actually pay while casting it. The total cost takes into account additional or alternative costs.

    Affinity for artifacts (This spell costs less to cast for each artifact you control.) Flying When this creature enters, surveil 2. (Look at the top two cards of your library, then put any number of them into your graveyard and the rest on top of your library in any order.)
