"Find me cards equivalent to: Contested War Zone"

Equivalent cards to Contested War Zone (colorless, land, grants bonuses to attacking creatures and changes control):
1. Path of Ancestry – Similar utility lands, but not identical effects.
2. Opal Palace – Provides colorless and some synergy with commanders.
3. Shinka, the Bloodsoaked Keep – Grants a bonus (first strike to legendary creatures), stays in your control.
4. Hall of the Bandit Lord – Gives creatures haste, at a cost.

None match the takeover mechanic, but these are lands that reward aggressive strategies. Contested War Zone is quite unique in this regard.

  • Gaining control of Contested War Zone doesn’t cause it to tap or untap.
  • In some multiplayer formats, creatures controlled by different players may deal combat damage to you simultaneously. If this happens, you control each triggered ability and can put them on the stack in any order. The last ability to resolve will determine who ends up controlling Contested War Zone.
  • The last activated ability affects all attacking creatures, not just those you control.
  • The word “you” in a permanent’s trigger condition always refers to the permanent’s current controller.

  • If you don't have a commander, Opal Palace's last ability produces no mana.
  • If you have two commanders, the last ability adds one mana of any color in their combined color identities.
  • If your commander is a card that has no colors in its color identity, Opal Palace's last ability produces no mana. It doesn't produce {C}.

    Scry

    Rules

  • If Path of Ancestry's last ability produces two mana (most likely due to Mana Reflection), spending those two mana to cast creature spells that share a creature type with your commander will cause two abilities to trigger. Each of those abilities will cause you to scry 1. You won't scry 2. This is true whether you spend the mana on one creature spell or two.
  • If you cast your commander with mana from Path of Ancestry, and your commander hasn't somehow lost all of its creature types while on the stack, you'll scry 1.
  • If you don't have a commander, Path of Ancestry's ability produces no mana.
  • If your commander has no creature types, it can't share a creature type with any spell that you cast.
  • If your commander is a card that has no colors in its color identity, Path of Ancestry's ability produces no mana. It doesn't produce {C}.
  • If you have two commanders, the last ability adds one mana of any color in their combined color identities. When you spend that mana on a creature spell that shares a creature type with either of your commanders, you'll scry 1.
  • Your commander's creature types are checked immediately after you cast a creature spell spending mana from Path of Ancestry's last ability. They aren't set before the game begins, and they may not be the same types your commander had when you activated that ability.
