"Find me cards equivalent to: Case of the Crimson Pulse"

Equivalent cards to Case of the Crimson Pulse (red) that offer repeated life gain and/or a recurring effect after a condition is met include:

  • Lightning Helix (deals 3 damage, you gain 3 life, instant)
  • Soulfire Phoenix (recurs from graveyard, synergizes with life gain and burn)
  • Altar of Bhaal (lets you recur creatures once solved, red/black identity in Commander)
  • Faithless Looting plus Benevolent Blessing (not direct equivalents but support red graveyard/life strategies)


Reason: Case of the Crimson Pulse is unique in its recurring life gain solution, so alternatives in red are usually burn spells that gain life or repeatable graveyard recursion. None create an exact effect, but these are functionally similar in mono-red.

    Solved

    Rules

  • "Solved — [Triggered ability]" means "[Triggered ability]. This ability triggers only if this Case is solved." Triggered abilities use the word "when," "whenever," or "at." They're often written as "[Trigger condition], [effect]."
  • "Solved — [static ability]" means "As long as this Case is solved, [static ability]." Static abilities are written as statements, such as "Creatures you control get +1/+1" or "Instant and sorcery spells you cast cost {1} less to cast."
  • "To Solve — [condition]" means "At the beginning of your end step, if [condition] and this Case is not solved, it becomes solved."
  • "To solve" abilities will check for their condition twice: once when the ability would trigger, and once when it resolves. If the condition isn't true at the beginning of your end step, the ability won't trigger at all. If the condition isn't true when the ability resolves, the Case won't become solved.
  • Being solved is not part of a permanent's copiable values. A permanent that becomes a copy of a solved Case is not solved. A solved Case that somehow becomes a copy of a different Case stays solved.
  • Cases don't lose their other abilities when they become solved.
  • Each Case has two special keyword abilities: to solve and solved.
  • If you have no cards in hand as Case of the Crimson Pulse's first ability resolves, you won't discard a card, but you will still draw two cards. Similarly, if you have no cards in hand when Case of the Crimson Pulse's last ability resolves, you won't discard any cards, but you'll still draw two cards.
  • Once a Case becomes solved, it stays solved until it leaves the battlefield.
  • The meaning of "solved" differs based on what type of ability follows it. "Solved — [activated ability]" means "[Activated ability]. Activate only if this Case is solved." Activated abilities contain a colon. They're generally written "[Cost]: [Effect]."

    Flashback

    Rules

  • You draw two cards and discard two cards all while Faithless Looting is resolving. Nothing can happen between the two, and no player may choose to take actions.
  • "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.
