AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Environmental Sciences

Equivalent cards to Environmental Sciences (white/black, lesson, basic land search, lifegain):

  • Search for Glory — Tutors a permanent, gains 3 life.
  • Omen of the Dead (black, lesson) — Not a land search but a substitute for black lessons.
  • Knight of the White Orchid — Searches for a Plains, puts it onto the battlefield.
  • Gift of Estates — Searches for up to three Plains cards.


Reason: White and black cards that tutor for basic lands and/or provide incidental life gain are the closest equivalents.

    Rules

  • Knight of the White Orchid's triggered ability has an “intervening ‘if' clause.” That means (1) the ability won't trigger at all unless any one of your opponents controls more lands than you, and (2) the ability will do nothing if you control at least as many lands as each of your opponents by the time it resolves.
  • The Plains you search for doesn't have to be basic. For example, you could put a Sacred Foundry onto the battlefield.

    Rules

  • A snow permanent card is any artifact, creature, enchantment, land, or planeswalker card with the supertype snow.
  • If Search for Glory is copied, no snow mana was spent to cast the copy, so you won’t gain any life. You’ll still search . . . for glory.
  • If you cast Search for Glory without spending snow mana, you won’t gain any life. You’ll still perform the search.
  • Snow is a supertype, not a card type. It has no rules meaning or function by itself, but spells and abilities may refer to it.
  • Snow isn’t a type of mana. If an effect says you may spend mana as though it were any type, you can’t pay for {S} using mana that wasn’t produced by a snow source.
  • Some cards have additional effects for each {S} spent to cast them. You can cast these spells even if you don’t spend any snow mana to cast them; their additional effects simply won’t do anything.
  • The Kaldheim set doesn’t have any cards with mana costs that include {S}, but some previous sets do. If an effect says such a spell costs {1} less to cast, that reduction doesn’t apply to any {S} costs. This is also true for activated abilities that include {S} in their activation costs and effects that reduce those costs.
  • The {S} symbol is a generic mana symbol. It represents a cost that can be paid by one mana that was produced by a snow source. That mana can be any color or colorless.
