"Find me cards equivalent to: River Heralds' Boon"

Here are green instants similar to River Heralds' Boon (Instant, G, places +1/+1 counters):
1. Blossoming Defense — Gives +2/+2 and hexproof (single target).
2. Invigorate — Gives +4/+4 (single target).
3. Scale Up — Makes a creature a 6/4 (Sorcery by default, but with Overload can target all).
4. Vines of Vastwood — Gives +4/+4 and hexproof (single target, with kicker).
5. Hardened Scales (Enchantment, not instant, but affects counters).

Note: None do the exact same split counter effect to two creatures, one being a Merfolk, like River Heralds' Boon. They're as close as possible in instant speed and +1/+1 counter interaction.

  • Each additional Hardened Scales you control will increase the number of +1/+1 counters placed on a creature you control by one.
  • If a creature you control would enter the battlefield with a number of +1/+1 counters on it, it enters with that many plus one instead.
  • If two or more effects attempt to modify how many counters would be put on a creature you control, you choose the order to apply those effects, no matter who controls the sources of those effects.

  • If an effect says that an opponent can't gain life, you can't have that player gain life to pay Invigorate's alternative cost. If an effect instead replaces life gain, such as that of Sulfuric Vortex, you may choose to pay the cost even though the cost's action is replaced with nothing.
  • To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you're paying (such as the alternative cost of Invigorate), 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.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Overload

    Rules

  • Effects that modify the affected creatures' power or toughness (such as the effects of Force of Virtue or Giant Growth) will apply no matter when they started to take effect. The same is true for counters that change the creatures' power or toughness (such as +1/+1 counters).
  • Scale Up overwrites all previous effects that set the affected creatures' color, creature types, power, and/or toughness to specific values. Other effects that set these characteristics to specific values that start to apply after Scale Up resolves will overwrite that part of the effect.
  • The affected creatures don't lose any abilities when they become Wurms.
  • Because a spell with overload doesn't target when its overload cost is paid, it may affect permanents with hexproof or with protection from the appropriate color.
  • If you are instructed to cast a spell with overload "without paying its mana cost," you can't choose to pay its overload cost instead.
  • If you don't pay the overload cost of a spell with overload, that spell will have a single target. If you pay the overload cost, the spell won't have any targets.
  • To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you're paying (such as an overload cost), 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.

    Until end of turn, target creature you control becomes a green Wurm with base power and toughness 6/4. Overload (You may cast this spell for its overload cost. If you do, change "target" in its text to "each.")

    Abilities/Keywords

    Kicker

    Rules

  • This is not the same as hexproof. If, for example, you target one of your opponent's creatures, your opponents won't be able to target their own creature with spells or abilities.
  • If a card or token enters as a copy of a permanent, the new permanent isn't kicked, even if the original was.
  • If a spell's kicker cost was paid, the spell is "kicked."
  • If you copy a kicked spell on the stack, the copy is also kicked. If the copied spell is a permanent spell, the token the copy of that spell becomes when it enters is also kicked.
  • If you put a permanent with a kicker ability onto the battlefield without casting it, you can't kick it.
  • The kicker ability doesn't let you pay a kicker cost more than once.
  • To determine a spell's total cost, start with the mana cost (or an alternative cost if another card's effect allows you to pay one instead), add any cost increases (such as kicker), then apply any cost reductions. The spell's mana value remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.

    Kicker (You may pay an additional as you cast this spell.) Target creature can't be the target of spells or abilities your opponents control this turn. If this spell was kicked, that creature gets +4/+4 until end of turn.
