4 Cards Found

AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Meddle

Equivalent cards to Meddle (blue, instant, target spell) include:

  • Redirect — Changes the target of a spell, but works on any spell, not just those with a single target.
  • Deflection — Same effect, with a higher cost, can retarget any spell that targets a single thing.
  • Shunt — Another 3-mana version of changing a spell’s target.

Reason: All these cards let you change the target of a spell, like Meddle, and are blue instants.

    Rules

  • If there is no other legal target for the spell, this does not change the target.
  • Once the spell resolves, the new target is considered to be targeted by the deflected spell. This will trigger any effects which trigger on being targeted.
  • The target of a spell that targets another spell on the stack can be changed to any other spell on the stack, even if the new target will resolve before the spell does.
  • This does not check if the current target is legal. It just checks if the spell has a single target.
  • This only targets the spell being changed, not the original or new target of the spell it is affecting.
  • You can choose to make a spell on the stack target this spell (if such a target choice would be legal had the spell been cast while this spell was on the stack). The new target for the deflected spell is not chosen until this spell resolves. This spell is still on the stack when new targets are selected for the spell.
  • You can’t make a spell which is on the stack target itself.
  • You choose the spell to target on announcement, but you pick the new target for that spell on resolution.
  • If a spell targets multiple things, you can’t target it with Deflection, even if all but one of those targets has become illegal.
  • If a spell targets the same player or object multiple times, you can’t target it with Deflection.

    Rules

  • If the targeted spell is modal (that is, it says “Choose one —” or the like), you can’t choose a different mode.
  • If you cast Redirect targeting a spell that targets a spell on the stack (like Cancel does, for example), you can’t change that spell’s target to itself. You can, however, change that spell’s target to Redirect. If you do, that spell won’t resolve when it tries to resolve because Redirect will have left the stack by then.
  • Redirect can target any spell, not just an instant or sorcery spell. For example, you could use it to change the target of an Aura spell. However, if the targeted spell has no targets (for example, if it’s an instant or sorcery spell that doesn’t specifically use the word “target,” or if it’s a creature spell), Redirect won’t have any effect on it.
  • 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).
