5 Cards Found

AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Mystic Snake

Equivalent cards to Mystic Snake (blue and green, counter creature):
1. Frilled Mystic – Same effect, but with flash instead of being a snake.
2. Venser, Shaper Savant – Can return spells or permanents, similar utility.
3. Hullbreaker Horror (blue only) – Can bounce spells but is less direct for countering.
4. Plaxmanta (blue and green) – Has a protection effect, but not a counterspell.


Reason: All are blue and/or green creatures with strong interaction on entering the battlefield. Frilled Mystic is the most direct equivalent.

  • If Venser's triggered ability targets a spell cast with flashback, that spell will be exiled instead of returning to its owner's hand.
  • If a copy of a spell is returned to its owner's hand, it's moved there, then it will cease to exist as a state-based action. It can't be recast.
  • If a spell is returned to its owner's hand, it's removed from the stack and thus will not resolve. The spell isn't countered; it just no longer exists. This works against a spell that can't be countered.
