"Find me cards equivalent to: Circu, Dimir Lobotomist"

Equivalent cards to Circu, Dimir Lobotomist (UB, Legendary Creature — Human Wizard) are limited, but here are some with similar exile/disruption effects in blue and black:

  • Nightveil Specter (UB hybrid): Exiles cards from opponent's library when it deals damage; you can cast them.
  • Gonti, Lord of Luxury (B): Exiles top four cards of opponent's library, lets you cast one.
  • Sire of Stagnation (UB): Exiles top two cards from each opponent's library when a land enters under their control.
  • Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver (UB): Not a creature, but exiles cards from top of opponent's library and lets you cast them.


Reason: There are no exact equivalents, but these share the exile/opponent spell limitation or similar disruption themes in UB.

  • Ashiok's second ability doesn't target any creature card. You choose which creature card to return when that ability resolves, but you must choose one with mana value equal to the value you chose for X when activating the ability.
  • Ashiok's second ability refers to any creature card exiled because of Ashiok's first or third ability.
  • If Ashiok leaves the battlefield, and later another Ashiok enters the battlefield, it is a new object (even if the two were represented by the same card). Creature cards exiled by the original Ashiok can't be put onto the battlefield by the second ability of the new Ashiok.
  • If you put a creature card with bestow onto the battlefield, it will be a creature on the battlefield, not an Aura.
  • If you put a creature card with {X} in its mana cost onto the battlefield, the value of that X is 0.

    Deathtouch

    Rules

  • An effect that instructs you to "cast" a card doesn't allow you to play lands.
  • Casting the card causes it to leave exile. You can't cast it multiple times.
  • Gonti doesn't change when you can cast the exiled card. For example, if you exile a creature card without flash, you can cast it only during your main phase when the stack is empty.
  • If you leave the game, the card remains exiled face down indefinitely. No player may look at it.
  • You may look at and cast that card (and spend mana as though it were mana of any type to do so) even if Gonti leaves the battlefield. If another player gains control of Gonti, that player can't look at or cast the card, and you still can.
  • You pay the costs for the exiled card if you cast it. You may pay alternative costs such as emerge rather than the card's mana cost.
  • The six types of mana are white, blue, black, red, green, and colorless. Snow mana is not a type of mana. Gonti, Lord of Luxury won't let you pay a snow cost using mana produced by a nonsnow source.

    Deathtouch When Gonti enters, look at the top four cards of target opponent's library, exile one of them face down, then put the rest on the bottom of that library in a random order. You may cast that card for as long as it remains exiled, and mana of any type can be spent to cast that spell.

    Devoid

    Rules

  • A card with devoid is just colorless. It’s not colorless and the colors of mana in its mana cost.
  • Cards with devoid use frames that are variations of the transparent frame traditionally used for Eldrazi. The top part of the card features some color over a background based on the texture of the hedrons that once imprisoned the Eldrazi. This coloration is intended to aid deckbuilding and game play.
  • Devoid works in all zones, not just on the battlefield.
  • If a card loses devoid, it will still be colorless. This is because effects that change an object’s color (like the one created by devoid) are considered before the object loses devoid.
  • If that player has one card in their library when Sire of Stagnation’s triggered ability resolves, that card will be exiled. If their library has zero cards, no cards are exiled. In both cases, you’ll still draw two cards. That player won’t lose the game (until they attempt to draw a card from an empty library).
  • Other cards and abilities can give a card with devoid color. If that happens, it’s just the new color, not that color and colorless.
  • The cards are exiled from the library face up.
