4 Cards Found

AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Dazzling Sphinx

Cards equivalent to Dazzling Sphinx (blue cards with flying and an on-hit spell-casting effect):
1. Ninjas of the Deep Hours (draws you a card on combat damage)
2. Sphinx Ambassador (lets you search opponent’s library for a creature on combat damage)
3. Thieving Skydiver (enters and steals an artifact; not combat focused, but similar effect)
4. Cephalid Facetaker (becomes a copy of a creature it deals damage to)


Reason: Blue flying creatures that generate value (card draw, free spells, or theft) when they deal combat damage are the closest equivalents.

    This creature can't be blocked. At the beginning of combat on your turn, you may have this creature become a copy of another target creature until end of turn, except it's 1/4 and has "This creature can't be blocked."

    Rules

  • Dazzling Sphinx's triggered ability lets you cast the exiled card during the resolution of the ability. It doesn't allow you to wait and cast the card later.
  • If the exiled instant or sorcery card has an {X} in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as the value of {X}.
  • You may choose not to cast the instant or sorcery card that you exiled. In that case, it will be put on the bottom of the library with the rest of the exiled cards.

    Flying Whenever this creature deals combat damage to a player, that player exiles cards from the top of their library until they exile an instant or sorcery card. You may cast that card without paying its mana cost. Then that player puts the exiled cards that weren't cast this way on the bottom of their library in a random order.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Flying

    Rules

  • A “creature card” is any card with the type creature, even if it has other types such as artifact, enchantment, or land. Older cards of type summon are also creature cards.
  • After the player names a card, check if the card you chose has that name. If it doesn’t, but it’s a creature card, you may put it onto the battlefield. If you don’t want to put that card onto the battlefield, it’s not a creature card, or it does have the name the player said, it simply stays in that player’s library without ever being revealed. The player then shuffles their library, including that card.
  • Once you’ve chosen a card during your search, you must clearly indicate which card you’ve chosen (preferably without showing the front of that card to the player!). Then the player names a card.
  • You may search for any card, not just a creature card. Of course, if you choose a noncreature card, you won’t be able to put it onto the battlefield no matter what card the player names.

    Flying Whenever this creature deals combat damage to a player, search that player's library for a card, then that player chooses a card name. If you searched for a creature card that doesn't have that name, you may put it onto the battlefield under your control. Then that player shuffles.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Flying Kicker

    Rules

  • If the Equipment can't be attached to Thieving Skydiver, most likely because Thieving Skydiver has left the battlefield before its triggered ability resolves, the Equipment remains attached to whatever it's currently attached to or remains unattached if attached to nothing.
  • The control-change effect of Thieving Skydiver lasts indefinitely. It doesn't wear off during the cleanup step, and it doesn't expire if Thieving Skydiver leaves the battlefield. In a multiplayer game, it does expire if you leave the game.
  • Thieving Skydiver's ability can target an artifact you already control. You'll attach it to Thieving Skydiver if it's an Equipment.
  • If a card or token enters as a copy of a permanent, the new permanent isn't kicked, even if the original was.
  • If a spell's kicker cost was paid, the spell is "kicked."
  • If you copy a kicked spell on the stack, the copy is also kicked. If the copied spell is a permanent spell, the token the copy of that spell becomes when it enters is also kicked.
  • If you put a permanent with a kicker ability onto the battlefield without casting it, you can't kick it.
  • The kicker ability doesn't let you pay a kicker cost more than once.
  • To determine a spell's total cost, start with the mana cost (or an alternative cost if another card's effect allows you to pay one instead), add any cost increases (such as kicker), then apply any cost reductions. The spell's mana value remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.

    Kicker . X can't be 0. (You may pay an additional as you cast this spell.) Flying When this creature enters, if it was kicked, gain control of target artifact with mana value X or less. If that artifact is an Equipment, attach it to this creature.
