AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: In Search of Greatness

Cards equivalent to In Search of Greatness (green, mana cost-reducing or alternate casting based on value):

  • Quirion Dryad (grows with casting, not cost reduction but similar synergy)
  • Karn's Temporal Sundering (alternate casting via historic spells - blue, not green, but somewhat similar concept)
  • Vizier of the Menagerie (play cards from top of library, green, alternate advantage)
  • Garruk's Uprising (triggers with certain CMC creatures, synergy with high-value spells in green)

Perfect replacements are rare—In Search of Greatness is unique. Closest alternative: The Great Henge (green, cheaper based on highest power creature).
Reason: Both reward you for having powerful permanents and offer value for doing so.

    Rules

  • If one or more static abilities that apply to a creature entering change its power, those abilities are considered when determining whether Garruk's Uprising's last ability triggers. The same is true for replacement effects that apply to it, such as entering with one or more +1/+1 counters or entering as a copy of another creature.
  • If you don't control a creature with power 4 or greater immediately after Garruk's Uprising enters, its first ability won't trigger. If you don't control one as the ability resolves, you don't draw a card. They don't have to be the same creature both times, however.
  • Once the last ability of Garruk's Uprising has triggered, lowering the power of the creature or removing it from the battlefield won't stop you from drawing a card.
  • The first ability of Garruk's Uprising has you draw just one card, no matter how many creatures you control with power 4 or greater.

    When this enchantment enters, if you control a creature with power 4 or greater, draw a card. Creatures you control have trample. (Each of those creatures can deal excess combat damage to the player or planeswalker it's attacking.) Whenever a creature you control with power 4 or greater enters, draw a card.

    Rules

  • A permanent spell is an artifact spell, a creature spell, an enchantment spell, or a planeswalker spell.
  • Consider the other permanents you control as the triggered ability resolves to determine which spell you can cast. If the only other permanents you control are lands, or in the unlikely event you don't control any other permanents, you may cast a permanent spell with mana value 1 from your hand.
  • If a permanent has {X} in its mana cost, X is considered to be 0.
  • If the spell you cast has {X} in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as the value of X.
  • If you cast a spell "without paying its mana cost," you can't choose to cast it for any alternative costs. You can, however, pay additional costs, such as kicker costs. If the card has any mandatory additional costs, those must be paid to cast the spell.

    Rules

  • If the target player or target nonland permanent is an illegal target as Karn’s Temporal Sundering resolves, the other target is affected as normal and Karn’s Temporal Sundering is exiled. If both targets are illegal, Karn’s Temporal Sundering doesn’t resolve and isn’t exiled.
  • Other than the casting restriction, the legendary supertype on a sorcery carries no additional rules. You may cast any number of legendary sorceries in a turn, and your deck may contain any number of legendary cards (but no more than four of any with the same name).
  • You can’t cast a legendary sorcery unless you control a legendary creature or a legendary planeswalker. Once you begin to cast a legendary sorcery, losing control of your legendary creatures and planeswalkers won’t affect that spell.

    Rules

  • Once The Great Henge's last ability has triggered, you'll draw a card even if you can't put a +1/+1 counter on the creature for some reason (most likely because it has left the battlefield).
  • Once you announce that you're casting a spell, no player may take actions until the spell has been paid for. Notably, opponents can't try to change by how much The Great Henge's cost is reduced.
  • Once you determine the cost to cast The Great Henge, you may activate mana abilities to pay that cost. If the greatest power among creatures you control changes while activating mana abilities, the cost to cast The Great Henge remains what you previously determined.
  • The cost reduction ability reduces only the generic mana in The Great Henge's cost. The colored mana must still be paid.
  • The first step of casting a spell is to move it to the stack. If this causes the greatest power among creatures you control to change, that new power will be used to determine the cost reduction.
  • To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you're paying, add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The mana value of the spell remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.

    Rules

  • If the top card of your library changes while you're casting a spell, playing a land, or activating an ability, you can't look at the new top card until you finish doing so. This means that if you cast the top card of your library, you can't look at the next one until you're done paying for that spell.
  • Normally, Vizier of the Menagerie allows you to cast the top card of your library if it's a creature card, it's your main phase, and the stack is empty. If that creature card has flash, you'll be able to cast it any time you could cast an instant, even on an opponent's turn.
  • The top card of your library isn't in your hand, so you can't cycle it, discard it, or activate any of its activated abilities.
  • Vizier of the Menagerie lets you look at the top card of your library whenever you want (with one restriction—see below), even if you don't have priority. This action doesn't use the stack. Knowing what that card is becomes part of the information you have access to, just like you can look at the cards in your hand.
  • You may spend mana as though it were mana of any type to cast any creature spell, not just creature spells that you cast from the top of your library.
  • You'll still pay all costs for that spell, including additional costs. You may also pay alternative costs such as emerge or that of As Foretold.
