Equivalent cards to Emperor Mihail II (mono-blue, legendary, cares about top of library or tribal synergies):
1. Arenos, Clan Crafter – Lets you look at and play cards from the top of your library, mono-blue, though not Merfolk specific.
2. Azami, Lady of Scrolls – Legendary blue wizard with a tribal ability (draws cards for tapping Wizards), tribal synergy.
3. Sygg, River Guide – Legendary Merfolk, blue, tribal support (grants protection).
4. Sigil Tracer – Not legendary, but blue Merfolk that cares about casting spells.
5. Etali, Primal Storm – Shows/play cards from top library, not blue or tribal, but similar effect.

    Rules

  • Emperor Mihail II lets you look at the top card of your library whenever you want (with one restriction—see below), even if you don't have priority. This action doesn't use the stack. Knowing what that card is becomes part of the information you have access to, just like you can look at the cards in your hand.
  • If the top card of your library changes while you're casting a spell, playing a land, or activating an ability, you can't look at the new top card until you finish doing so. This means that if you cast the top card of your library, you can't look at the next one until you're done paying for that spell.
  • The last ability triggers whenever you cast any Merfolk spell, not just when you cast a Merfolk spell from the top of your library. It will resolve before the spell that caused it to trigger, even if that spell has been countered or otherwise left the stack.
  • You must follow the normal timing permissions and restrictions of the cards you play from your library.

    Rules

  • Any cards not cast, including land cards, remain in exile. They can't be cast on later turns, even if Etali attacks again.
  • Because all attacking creatures are chosen at once, a creature cast this way can't attack during the same combat as Etali, even if it has haste.
  • If an exiled card has {X} in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as the value of X when casting it without paying its mana cost.
  • If you cast a card "without paying its mana cost," you can't pay any alternative costs. You can, however, pay additional costs. If the card has any mandatory additional costs, those must be paid to cast the card.
  • If you cast any of the exiled cards, you do so as part of the resolution of the triggered ability. You can't wait to cast them later in the turn. Timing permissions based on a card's type are ignored, and the spells resolve before blockers are declared.
  • If you cast more than one of the exiled cards, you choose the order in which to cast them. A spell you cast this way can be the target of a later spell you cast this way. However, permanent spells cast this way won't resolve until you're done casting spells, so the permanents they become can't be the target of spells cast this way. For example, if you exile Twincast and Lightning Strike, you can cast Lightning Strike and then cast Twincast targeting it; but if you exile a creature card and an Aura card, you can't cast that Aura targeting that creature.
  • In a multiplayer game, if a player leaves the game, all cards that player owns leave as well. If you leave the game, any spells or permanents you control from Etali's ability are exiled.

  • If the controller of the original spell chose to pay an alternative cost (such as prowl) or an additional cost, that choice is also copied.
  • If the spell is modal (that is, it says “choose one —” or “choose two —”), the choice of mode(s) can’t be changed.
  • Sigil Tracer’s ability can copy an instant or sorcery spell that isn’t targeted.
  • Since the activated ability doesn’t have a tap symbol in its cost, you can tap creatures (including Sigil Tracer itself) that haven’t been under your control since your most recent turn began to pay the cost.
