"Find me cards equivalent to: Dire Downdraft"

Equivalent cards to Dire Downdraft (Instant, blue, interacts with creatures, library manipulation):
1. Run Away Together — Returns one creature you control and one you don’t to their owners’ hands. (Not library; still blue instant, tempo effect.)
2. Expel from Orazca — Blue instant, puts target nonland permanent on top of its owner's library if you have the city's blessing.
3. Submerge — Blue instant, puts target green creature on top of its owner’s library, and often can be cast for free.

All these cards share similarities with Dire Downdraft—they are blue instants that interact with creatures and involve library or tempo manipulation. None are identical, but Expel from Orazca is the closest library-related one.

  • The creature’s owner chooses whether to put it on the top or bottom of their library. If multiple cards are put into the library this way (such as when the spell targets a melded permanent), that creature’s owner puts all the cards on top or all the cards on the bottom. They put them in whatever order they wish, and do not need to reveal the order.

    City's Blessing

    Abilities/Keywords

    Ascend

    Rules

  • A permanent is any object on the battlefield, including tokens and lands. Spells and emblems aren’t permanents.
  • If you cast a spell with ascend, you don’t get the city’s blessing until it resolves. Players may respond to that spell by trying to change whether you get the city’s blessing.
  • If you control ten permanents but don’t control a permanent or resolving spell with ascend, you don’t get the city’s blessing. For example, if you control ten permanents, lose control of one, then cast Golden Demise, you won’t have the city’s blessing and the spell will affect creatures you control.
  • If you have the city’s blessing and choose not to put the target nonland permanent on top of its owner’s library, it’s returned to its owner’s hand.
  • If your tenth permanent enters the battlefield and then a permanent leaves the battlefield immediately afterwards (most likely due to the “Legend Rule” or due to being a creature with 0 toughness), you get the city’s blessing before it leaves the battlefield.
  • Once you have the city’s blessing, you have it for the rest of the game, even if you lose control of some or all of your permanents. The city’s blessing isn’t a permanent itself and can’t be removed by any effect.
