5 Cards Found

AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Esper Sentinel

Equivalent cards to Esper Sentinel (white, card draw/control tax) include:

  • Smothering Tithe (taxes draws, makes treasure)
  • Blind Obedience (taxes noncreature spells, extort synergy)
  • Authority of the Consuls (taxes creatures, gains life)
  • Spirit of the Labyrinth (limits extra draws)


Reason: These all tax or restrict opponents, fitting white's taxing/advantage theme. None are a perfect match (since card draw in white is rare), but they create similar disruption or advantage.

    Extort

    Rules

  • The amount of life you gain from extort is based on the total amount of life lost, not necessarily the number of opponents you have. For example, if your opponent's life total can't change (perhaps because that player controls Platinum Emperion), you won't gain any life.
  • The extort ability doesn't target any player.
  • The extort ability resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger. The ability resolves even if that spell is countered.
  • You may pay {W/B} a maximum of one time for each extort triggered ability. You decide whether to pay when the ability resolves.

  • If a noncreature spell was already cast by an opponent the turn Esper Sentinel enters the battlefield, that opponent already cast their first noncreature spell this turn, and Esper Sentinel's ability won't trigger for that opponent that turn.
  • This ability checks Esper Sentinel's power when it resolves, not when the ability goes on the stack. If Esper Sentinel is no longer on the battlefield when it resolves, use the power it had the last time it was on the battlefield.
