AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Ancestral Statue

Equivalent cards to Ancestral Statue (colorless, artifact creature with ETB effect and self-bounce) are limited, but here are a few similar options:
1. Man-o'-War (blue, returns a creature to its owner’s hand on ETB)
2. Venser, Shaper Savant (blue, bounces any spell or permanent on ETB)
3. Aether Adept (blue, bounces a creature on ETB)
4. Salvager of Secrets (blue, ETB returns instant/sorcery from graveyard)

True equivalents (artifact, colorless, self-bounce) are rare. These are close but not colorless or do not bounce themselves. Ancestral Statue is unique for infinite combos due to its self-bounce.

    Rules

  • If Venser's triggered ability targets a spell cast with flashback, that spell will be exiled instead of returning to its owner's hand.
  • If a copy of a spell is returned to its owner's hand, it's moved there, then it will cease to exist as a state-based action. It can't be recast.
  • If a spell is returned to its owner's hand, it's removed from the stack and thus will not resolve. The spell isn't countered; it just no longer exists. This works against a spell that can't be countered.
