AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Desperate Measures

Cards equivalent to Desperate Measures (single black, instant, exile a creature or planeswalker, and make a Treasure) include:

  • Power Word Kill (removal, instant, but can't hit all types)
  • Infernal Grasp (destroy target creature, instant, but deals 2 damage to you)
  • Go for the Throat (destroy target nonartifact creature, instant)


Reason: All are black instant-speed removal, but Desperate Measures is unique for exiling and making a Treasure. None match both clauses exactly, but these are closest in function and color.

If it has one of these four creature types, it's not a legal target, even if it also has a creature type that's not among these four. For example, a Demon Rogue is not a valid target for this spell.
