AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Fateful Showdown

Equivalent cards to Fateful Showdown (red color, instant, damage based on hand size):
1. Breaking Point – Red, deals 6 damage unless a player sacrifices creatures.
2. Fault Line – Red, instant, deals X damage to each creature and player.
3. Chandra's Ignition – Red, deals damage equal to a creature’s power to all creatures and players (not instant, but similar scaling idea).
4. Fiery Finale – Red, deals damage equal to twice the number of cards in hand (not a real card; there’s no exact equivalent, but you could look for X damage spells like Fireball).


Reason:
No card is an exact match, but these cards deal scalable damage or interact with hand size/damage in a red instant context.

    Rules

  • If the creature becomes an illegal target by the time Chandra's Ignition tries to resolve (perhaps because another player controls it or it's left the battlefield), Chandra's Ignition won't resolve and none of its effects will happen. No damage will be dealt.
  • The creature is the source of the damage, not Chandra's Ignition. For example, Chandra's Ignition can have a white creature deal damage to a creature with protection from red.
  • Use the power of the target creature as Chandra's Ignition resolves to determine how much damage it deals to each other creature and each opponent.

    Rules

  • If Fateful Showdown's target becomes an illegal target, you won't discard your hand or draw any cards.
  • The number of cards in your hand is counted only as Fateful Showdown resolves. Fateful Showdown is on the stack at this time, so it's not counted.
  • There are many important moments in the story, but the most crucial—called “story spotlights”—are shown on cards. These cards have the Planeswalker symbol in their text box; this symbol has no effect on gameplay. You can read more about these events in the official Magic fiction at http://www.mtgstory.com.

    Rules

  • Fireball's damage is divided as Fireball resolves, not as it's cast, because there are no choices involved. The division involves only targets that are still legal as Fireball resolves.
  • For example, if X is 5 and you choose three target creatures, Fireball has a total cost of {7}{R} (even though its mana cost is just {5}{R} and its mana value is 6). If those creatures are all still legal targets as Fireball resolves, it deals 1 damage to each of them.
  • You can target more than X creatures. However, if the number of legal targets at the time Fireball resolves is greater than X, none of them will be dealt any damage.
  • You may cast Fireball with zero targets, regardless of the value chosen for X. If you do so, it will not be a targeted spell, and no damage will actually be dealt when it resolves.
