"Find me cards equivalent to: Firemind's Research"

Cards most equivalent in color and effect to Firemind's Research are:
1. Metallurgic Summonings — Creates tokens for spellcasting (UR synergy, more blue, not direct damage, no counters).
2. Swarm Intelligence — Copies spells (UR, focuses on spellcasting reward).
3. Thousand-Year Storm — Copies instants/sorceries for each spell previously cast this turn (UR, cares about casting spells, but not counters).
4. Aetherflux Reservoir — Lifegain for casting spells, can deal damage, but not UR only.

These are similar but none replicate the charge counter, damage, and draw mechanics of Firemind's Research in enchantment form. They are all UR or close, support spell slinging, and provide rewards.

  • For a spell with {X} in its mana cost, use the value chosen for X to determine its mana value. For example, Clash of Wills is an instant spell with mana cost {X}{U}. If you chose 2 as the value of X, then Clash of Wills has mana value 3, and Metallurgic Summonings's ability will create a 3/3 token.
  • If Metallurgic Summonings's first ability resolves and the spell that caused it to trigger has been countered, use that spell's mana value as it last existed on the stack to determine the value of X.
  • Metallurgic Summonings's first ability resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger.
  • The number of artifacts you control is checked only as you activate Metallurgic Summonings's last ability. It's not checked again as it resolves.

    Rules

  • If the spell has damage divided as it was cast (like Chandra’s Pyrohelix), the division can’t be changed (although the targets receiving that damage still can).
  • If the spell that’s copied has an X whose value was determined as it was cast (like Torment of Hailfire does), the copy will have the same value of X.
  • If the spell that’s copied is modal (that is, it says “Choose one —” or the like), the copy will have the same mode. A different mode can’t be chosen.
  • Swarm Intelligence can copy any instant or sorcery spell, not just one with targets.
  • Swarm Intelligence can copy the spell even if it’s countered before Swarm Intelligence’s triggered ability resolves.
  • The controller of a copy can’t choose to pay any alternative or additional costs for the copy. However, effects based on any alternative or additional costs that were paid for the original spell are copied as though those same costs were paid for the copy.
  • The copy is created on the stack, so it’s not “cast.” Abilities that trigger when a player casts a spell (such as Swarm Intelligence’s own ability) won’t trigger.
  • The copy will have the same targets as the spell it’s copying unless you choose new ones. You may change any number of the targets, including all of them or none of them. If, for one of the targets, you can’t choose a new legal target, then it remains unchanged (even if the current target is illegal).

    Rules

  • Copies are created even if the spell that caused Thousand-Year Storm's ability to trigger has been countered by the time that ability resolves. The copies resolve before the original spell.
  • If an effect instructs you to cast multiple spells, they're cast one at a time in any order.
  • If the spell has damage divided as it was cast, the division can't be changed (although the targets receiving that damage still can). The same is true of spells that distribute counters.
  • If the spell that's copied has an X whose value was determined as it was cast, the copies will have the same value of X.
  • If the spell that's copied is modal (that is, it says "Choose one —" or the like), the copies will have the same mode or modes. You can't choose different ones.
  • Spells you've cast that were countered were still cast, and so will add copies when Thousand-Year Storm's ability resolves for later spells in the turn.
  • The copies that Thousand-Year Storm's ability creates are created on the stack, so they're not "cast." Abilities that trigger when a player casts a spell (such as that of Thousand-Year Storm itself) won't trigger.
  • The copies will have the same targets as the spell they're copying unless you choose new ones. You may change any number of the targets, including all of them or none of them. The new targets must be legal.
  • Thousand-Year Storm's ability will copy any instant or sorcery spell, not just one with targets.
  • You can't choose to pay any additional costs for the copies. However, effects based on any additional costs that were paid for the original spell are copied as though those same costs were paid for the copy too.
