6 Cards Found

AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Compulsion

Cards equivalent to Compulsion (blue, repeatable draw/discard):

  • Merfolk Looter (draw, then discard)
  • Jace's Archivist (each player wheels hand)
  • Tolarian Winds (one-time wheel effect)
  • Archmage Ascension (draw improvement, conditional)
  • Careful Study (one-shot, not repeatable like Compulsion)


Reason: Each offers a similar blue effect of drawing and discarding, with some offering repeatable effects and others one-shot, but none are exact replacements for Compulsion’s specific enchantment repeatability.

    Rules

  • Archmage Ascension’s first ability has an “intervening ‘if’ clause.” It won’t trigger at all unless you’ve already drawn two or more cards by the time the end step begins.
  • If a spell or ability causes you to put cards in your hand without specifically using the word “draw,” Archmage Ascension’s abilities ignore it.
  • If an effect would cause you to draw multiple cards while Archmage Ascension has six or more quest counters on it, each individual draw may be replaced by Archmage Ascension’s effect. Process the draws one at a time. Even if you use the reasonable shortcut of finding all of the cards at once and only physically shuffling once, the game will consider you to have searched and shuffled once per card.
  • If two or more replacement effects would apply to a card-drawing event, the player who’s drawing the card chooses what order to apply them. It’s possible that after applying one of them, the others will no longer be applicable because the player would no longer draw a card. For example, if you control more than one Archmage Ascension with six quest counters on it and you would draw a card, each Archmage Ascension’s replacement effect could apply. Once you use one, the rest are no longer applicable.
