5 Cards Found

AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Wistful Thinking

Equivalent cards to Wistful Thinking (blue, discard/draw):
1. Compulsive Research — Draw three, discard two unless you discard a land.
2. Dream Twist — Target player mills three; can be flashbacked.
3. Tolarian Winds — Discard your hand, draw that many cards.
4. Tolarian Scholar — Not equivalent in effect; just a blue card.


Reason: Closest matches are blue cards that mix drawing and discarding. Exact effect (draw two, discard four) is unique, but these are similar by mechanic.

    Flashback Mill

    Rules

  • "Flashback [cost]" means "You may cast this card from your graveyard by paying [cost] rather than paying its mana cost" and "If the flashback cost was paid, exile this card instead of putting it anywhere else any time it would leave the stack."
  • A spell cast using flashback will always be exiled afterward, whether it resolves, is countered, or leaves the stack in some other way.
  • If a card with flashback is put into your graveyard during your turn, you can cast it if it's legal to do so before any other player can take any actions.
  • To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost (such as a flashback cost) you're paying, add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The mana value of the spell is determined only by its mana cost, no matter what the total cost to cast the spell was.
  • You can cast a spell using flashback even if it was somehow put into your graveyard without having been cast.
  • You must still follow any timing restrictions and permissions, including those based on the card's type. For instance, you can cast a sorcery using flashback only when you could normally cast a sorcery.
