"Find me cards equivalent to: Shao Jun"

Equivalent cards (same colors: Red & Blue, type: Legendary Creature, similar mechanics):

  • Shao Jun (for reference)
  • Niv-Mizzet, Parun — Legendary Creature, Blue/Red, deals damage, interacts with spells.
  • Alesha, Who Smiles at Death — Legendary Creature, Red, first strike, ability on attack.
  • Adrix and Nev, Twincasters — Legendary Creature, Blue/Green, but focuses on doubling, not direct damage.
  • Nin, the Pain Artist — Legendary Creature, Red/Blue, deals damage by tapping mana and tapping itself.


Reason: Very few cards match both flying/first strike and artifact tapping. Closest parallels are Nin, the Pain Artist for Red/Blue legendary damage dealing, and Niv-Mizzet, Parun for flying+damage triggers. No exact match, but these share most features.

    Ward

    Rules

  • If a player casts a spell that targets multiple permanents their opponent controls with ward, each of those ward abilities will trigger. If that player doesn't pay for all of them, the spell will be countered.
  • Everything that is specified by the effect creating the original token or tokens will also be true about the additional token or tokens created by Adrix and Nev's replacement effect. For example, if an effect tells you to create a token "tapped and attacking" the additional tokens will also be tapped and attacking. Similarly, if an effect creates a token and puts counters on it (such as a Fractal token) the additional token will also get those counters.

    Rules

  • Alesha's triggered ability checks the card's power only in your graveyard. The creature will still be tapped and attacking if its power is greater than 2 after it's on the battlefield.
  • Although the returned creature is an attacking creature, it was never declared as an attacking creature. This means that abilities that trigger whenever a creature attacks won't trigger when it enters the battlefield attacking.
  • Any effects that say that the returned creature can't attack (such as that of Propaganda, or if the creature has defender) affect only the declaration of attackers. They won't stop the returned creature from entering the battlefield attacking.
  • While resolving Alesha's triggered ability, you can't pay the cost multiple times to return more than one creature card.
  • You choose which player or planeswalker the returned creature is attacking. It doesn't have to be attacking the same player or planeswalker Alesha is attacking.

  • If the ability resolves, but the damage is prevented or redirected, the controller of the targeted creature will draw X cards, regardless of how much damage was dealt or what the damage was ultimately dealt to.
  • If the creature is an illegal target when Nin's ability tries to resolve, it won't resolve and none of its effects will happen. No player will draw cards.
  • If the damage is lethal, the cards are drawn before the creature is destroyed (the next time state-based actions are checked).
  • The effect is not optional. The creature's controller can't choose to draw fewer than X cards.
  • You may choose a value for X that's greater than the creature's toughness. Its controller will draw that many cards.

    Flying

    Rules

  • If a spell or ability causes you to put cards into your hand without specifically using the word "draw," Niv-Mizzet's first triggered ability won't trigger.
  • If an effect instructs you to draw multiple cards, Niv-Mizzet's first triggered ability triggers that many times. You choose targets for those abilities after you've drawn all of the cards.
  • Niv-Mizzet's second triggered ability resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger. It resolves even if that spell is countered. This causes its first triggered ability to trigger, and that also resolves before the spell.
  • Players can cast spells and activate abilities after Niv-Mizzet's second triggered ability resolves but before the spell that caused it to trigger does. Notably, the card you draw may be able to counter that spell.
