"Find me cards equivalent to: Drain Power"

Drain Power (U, Sorcery) is unique. No other blue sorcery does exactly this (forcing opponent to empty their mana pool and adding it to yours).

Closest equivalents:

  • Mindslaver (Artifact, lets you control opponent's turn, colorless, not blue/sorcery)
  • Mana Short (U, Instant, taps lands and empties mana pools, but doesn’t give you the mana)
  • Reset (U, Instant, untaps lands, not the same effect)


Reason: Blue usually manipulates mana less directly than Drain Power. There is no direct card equivalent in blue as a sorcery.

    Rules

  • If a land can draw a variable amount of mana, the target player (not the player of this spell) chooses how much to draw.
  • This card forces the target player to draw mana from lands if they are untapped, but that player can choose how to draw the mana if a land they control has multiple mana abilities, or mana abilities with choices.
  • Your opponent may use instants and abilities of permanents in response to this spell before you get the mana.
  • A mana ability is an ability that (1) isn't a loyalty ability, (2) doesn't target, and (3) could add mana when it resolves.

    Target player activates a mana ability of each land they control. Then that player loses all unspent mana and you add the mana lost this way.

    Rules

  • If you play Mana Short in response to a spell, it will have no effect on that spell since the mana has already been paid.
  • It even taps lands that do not produce mana.
  • Since this is an instant, your opponent may use instants in response to the casting of this spell. Note that such spells and abilities will be resolved before mana is removed by Mana Short. This makes it useless as a countermeasure for spells. To use it effectively, you need to use it during Upkeep and even then it will not prevent the use of instant spells and abilities.

    Rules

  • Controlling a player doesn't allow you to look at that player's sideboard. If an effect instructs that player to choose a card from outside the game, you can't have that player choose any card.
  • If the targeted player skips their next turn, you'll control the next turn the affected player actually takes.
  • In a Two-Headed Giant game, gaining control of a player causes you to gain control of each player on that team.
  • Multiple player-controlling effects that affect the same player overwrite each other. The last one to be created is the one that works.
  • The player you're controlling is still the active player during that turn.
  • While controlling another player, you also continue to make your own choices and decisions.
  • While controlling another player, you can see all cards in the game that player can see. This includes cards in that player's hand, face-down cards that player controls, and any cards in that player's library the player may look at.
  • While controlling another player, you make all choices and decisions that player is allowed to make or is told to make during that turn. This includes choices about what spells to cast or what abilities to activate, as well as any decisions called for by triggered abilities or for any other reason.
  • You also can't make any choices or decisions for the player that would be called for by the tournament rules (such as whether to take an intentional draw or whether to call a judge).
  • You can use only the affected player's resources (cards, mana, and so on) to pay costs for that player; you can't use your own. Similarly, you can use the affected player's resources only to pay that player's costs; you can't spend them on your costs.
  • You can't make any illegal decisions or illegal choices—you can't do anything that player couldn't do. You can't make choices or decisions for that player that aren't called for by the game rules or by any cards, permanents, spells, abilities, and so on. If an effect causes another player to make decisions that the affected player would normally make (such as Master Warcraft does), that effect takes precedence. In other words, if the affected player wouldn't make a decision, you wouldn't make that decision on that player's behalf.
  • You can't make the affected player concede. That player may choose to concede at any time, even while you're controlling that player.
  • You could gain control of yourself using Mindslaver, but gaining control of yourself doesn't really do anything.
  • You only control the player. You don't control any of that player's permanents, spells, or abilities.
