AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Astarion's Thirst

Equivalent cards to Astarion's Thirst (black, instant, removal + lifegain) include:

  • Vraska's Contempt (exile, instant, gain 2 life)
  • Murderous Rider (as Swift End, destroy creature/planeswalker, lose 2 life—not gain)
  • Hero's Downfall (destroy creature/planeswalker, no lifegain)
  • Ob Nixilis's Cruelty (exile creature, -5/-5, no lifegain)

Most black removal cards offer similar removal but less lifegain; Vraska's Contempt is closest.

  • If the target creature or planeswalker is an illegal target by the time Vraska’s Contempt resolves, the entire spell doesn’t resolve. You won’t gain life.
  • There are many important moments in the story, but the most crucial—called “story spotlights”—are shown on cards. These cards have the Planeswalker symbol in their text box; this symbol has no effect on gameplay. You can read more about these events in the official Magic fiction at http://www.mtgstory.com.
