"Find me cards equivalent to: Setessan Tactics"

Here are some green instants similar to Setessan Tactics (Instant, green, fight effect and/or temporary pump):
1. Epic Confrontation — Instant, +1/+2 and fights, but targets one creature only.
2. Ram Through — Instant, target creature deals damage equal to power; not exactly a fight, but similar.
3. Rabid Bite — Instant, target creature deals damage equal to power to target creature (pseudo-fight).
4. Prey Upon — Sorcery (not instant), but it’s a basic fight effect.

There are no other green instants with exactly the same effect and strive, but these cards fulfill similar roles in green decks. Setessan Tactics remains unique for multi-creature strive and instancy.

    Rules

  • Excess damage caused by a spell or ability is similar to how combat damage from a creature with trample is handled. Start with the amount of damage being dealt to the creature and determine what is “lethal.” This is the creature’s toughness minus the amount of damage that it already has marked on it, but ignoring any replacement or prevention effects that will modify this damage. Also ignore whether the creature has an ability such as indestructible that will result in it not being destroyed by this damage.
  • If either creature is an illegal target as Ram Through tries to resolve, the creature you control won’t deal damage to any creature or player.
  • If the target creature you control has deathtouch, 1 damage from it is lethal.
  • Once you’ve determined how much damage is excess, the creature you control simultaneously deals damage to the creature and to its controller. This damage may be modified by replacement or prevention effects.

    Target creature you control deals damage equal to its power to target creature you don't control. If the creature you control has trample, excess damage is dealt to that creature's controller instead.

    Fight

    Rules

  • Each of the two creatures that fight deals damage equal to its power to the other. If either one of the creatures isn't on the battlefield when the ability that instructs them to fight resolves, no damage is dealt.
  • If a spell or ability allows you to cast a strive spell without paying its mana cost, you must pay the additional costs for any targets beyond the first.
  • If all of the spell's targets are illegal when the spell tries to resolve, it won't resolve and none of its effects will happen. If one or more of its targets are legal when it tries to resolve, the spell will resolve and affect only those legal targets. It will have no effect on any illegal targets.
  • If such a spell is copied, and the effect that copies the spell allows a player to choose new targets for the copy, the number of targets can't be changed. The player may change any number of the targets, including all of them or none of them. If, for one of the targets, the player can't choose a new legal target, then it remains unchanged (even if the current target is illegal).
  • The mana cost and mana value of strive spells don't change no matter how many targets they have. Strive abilities affect only what you pay.
  • You choose how many targets each spell with a strive ability has and what those targets are as you cast it. It's legal to cast such a spell with no targets, although this is rarely a good idea. You can't choose the same target more than once for a single strive spell.
