"Find me cards equivalent to: Grapple with the Past"

Equivalent cards to Grapple with the Past (Instant, Green, graveyard recursion) include:

  • Once Upon a Time (digs for creatures/lands, but does not recur from graveyard)
  • Revive (returns creature from graveyard, but is a sorcery)
  • Wrest from the Grave (returns creature/land, not an instant)
  • Memory's Journey (instant, but puts cards into library, not hand)
  • Necromantic Summons (costs more, returns creature, not instant)

Closest green instant equivalents that return creatures/lands from graveyard:

  • Strength of the Pack (not similar)
  • Wildwood Rebirth (instant, returns creature, no mill)

Summary: Wildwood Rebirth is the closest green instant, but lacks the mill ability. Grapple with the Past is unique for combining instant speed, self-mill, and recursion. All others either lack the instant speed, self-mill, or can’t return both creatures and lands.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Flashback

    Rules

  • Any of the targeted cards that are illegal targets by the time Memory's Journey resolves aren't shuffled into their owner's library.
  • If no cards were targeted by Memory's Journey or if all the targeted cards are illegal targets by the time Memory's Journey resolves, the targeted player will still shuffle their library.
  • If the player is an illegal target by the time Memory's Journey resolves, the spell will have no effect, even if the cards are still legal targets. This is because a spell can't make an illegal target (the player) perform any actions (such as shuffling their library).
  • If you cast Memory's Journey with flashback, it won't be in the graveyard when you choose targets. It can't target itself.
  • You don't have to target any cards when you cast Memory's Journey, but you must target a player.
  • "Flashback [cost]" means "You may cast this card from your graveyard by paying [cost] rather than paying its mana cost" and "If the flashback cost was paid, exile this card instead of putting it anywhere else any time it would leave the stack."
  • A spell cast using flashback will always be exiled afterward, whether it resolves, is countered, or leaves the stack in some other way.
  • If a card with flashback is put into your graveyard during your turn, you can cast it if it's legal to do so before any other player can take any actions.
  • To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost (such as a flashback cost) you're paying, add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The mana value of the spell is determined only by its mana cost, no matter what the total cost to cast the spell was.
  • You can cast a spell using flashback even if it was somehow put into your graveyard without having been cast.
  • You must still follow any timing restrictions and permissions, including those based on the card's type. For instance, you can cast a sorcery using flashback only when you could normally cast a sorcery.

  • Check to see if there are two or more instant and/or sorcery cards in your graveyard as the spell resolves to determine whether the spell mastery ability applies. The spell itself won’t count because it’s still on the stack as you make this check.

    If this spell is the first spell you've cast this game, you may cast it without paying its mana cost. Look at the top five cards of your library. You may reveal a creature or land card from among them and put it into your hand. Put the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order.
