"Find me cards equivalent to: Ghostfire"

Equivalent cards to Ghostfire (colorless instant that deals 3 damage) are extremely rare. Ghostfire is unique; however, here are some similar cards within colorless instants:

  • Spatial Contortion (Instant, colorless, gives target creature +3/-3 until end of turn — can be removal)
  • Titan's Presence (Instant, exile target creature if you reveal a colorless creature card — still situational)
  • Unstable Obelisk (Artifact, can sacrifice for colorless to destroy any permanent)

None do exactly what Ghostfire does, but Ghostfire is the main example for colorless instant damage. Red has closest functional reprints (e.g., Lightning Strike), but not colorless.


Reason: Colorless direct damage at instant speed is very rare in MTG.

  • Check the target creature’s power as Titan’s Presence resolves to see if it’s less than or equal to revealed creature card’s power. If it’s greater, Titan’s Presence will finish resolving with no effect.
  • The colorless creature card stays revealed until Titan’s Presence leaves the stack.
  • The colorless creature card you reveal doesn’t have to still be in your hand as Titan’s Presence resolves. If it’s not, use its power as it last existed in your hand.
