AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Cease

Equivalent cards to Cease (which is a blue instant that counters a target spell unless its controller pays {1}):

  • Mana Leak (counter unless {3} is paid)
  • Miscalculation (counter unless {2} is paid, can cycle)
  • Condescend (counter unless X is paid, scry 2)
  • Mana Drain (counters spell, gets mana, strictly better)
  • Deprive (counter, return a land; more restrictive)


Reason: These are similar blue instants that tax a spell to counter or provide blue soft counterspell effects.

    Rules

  • If the target spell is an illegal target by the time Mana Drain tries to resolve, Mana Drain doesn't resolve. You don't add mana at the beginning of your next main phase. If the target is legal but not countered (most likely because an effect says that the spell can't be countered), you do add mana.
  • Mana Drain's delayed triggered ability will usually trigger at the beginning of your precombat main phase. However, if you cast Mana Drain during your precombat main phase or during your combat phase, its delayed triggered ability will trigger at the beginning of that turn's postcombat main phase.
