AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Metallic Mimic

Equivalent cards to Metallic Mimic (colorless, creature-type lords):
1. Adaptive Automaton – Also colorless, chooses a creature type, and gives +1/+1 to that type.
2. Universal Automaton – Colorless but lacks the lord effect, still fits tribal synergy.
3. Door of Destinies – Not a creature, but colorless and buffs creatures of a chosen type.


Reason: All are colorless and support tribal strategies as Metallic Mimic does. Adaptive Automaton is the closest direct equivalent.

  • If you cast a creature spell of the chosen type, Door of Destinies will get a charge counter before the creature enters. The creature will enter with the additional boost to its power and toughness.
  • Creature types, such as Human or Sliver, appear after the dash on the type line of creatures. Notably, artifact is not a creature type. A creature may have more than one creature type, such as Goblin Warrior. Such a creature would benefit from Door of Destinies if the chosen creature type was Goblin or Warrior.
