AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Hindering Light

Equivalent cards to Hindering Light (White-Blue instant, counterspell + cantrip):
1. Arcane Denial (Blue instant; counterspell, opponent draws, you draw)
2. Remand (Blue instant; counterspell, return to hand, you draw)
3. Render Silent (White-Blue instant; counters and opponent can't cast spells this turn)
4. Dovin's Veto (White-Blue instant; counters noncreature spells, can't be countered)
5. Sinister Sabotage (Blue instant; counterspell, surveil 1)


Reason: These cards are in similar colors and offer counterspell abilities with a bonus effect (draw or additional disruption). None are exact cantrip soft-counters for spells targeting you/perms, but are the closest equivalents in UW colors.

  • You may choose to target a spell that “can’t be countered.” If you do, the first part of Hindering Light’s effect won’t do anything, but you’ll still get to draw a card.

  • If the spell is an illegal target when Render Silent tries to resolve (because it’s been countered by another spell, for example), Render Silent won’t resolve and none of its effects will happen.
  • Render Silent doesn’t stop any player from casting spells in response to Render Silent before it resolves.
  • The affected player can still activate abilities, including abilities of cards in their hand (such as bloodrush abilities), and the player can still play lands.
  • You must be able to target a spell to cast Render Silent.
