"Find me cards equivalent to: Shifting Borders"

Cards equivalent to Shifting Borders (blue, instant, exchanges control, or has Splice onto Arcane):
1. Shifting Borders (reference card)
2. Brand (red, instant, exchanges control of all permanents you own, but not land-specific, and not blue)
3. Vedalken Plotter (blue, but a creature, not instant—upon entering, exchanges a land)
4. Cultural Exchange (blue, sorcery: exchange control of creatures, not lands)
5. Trade Routes (blue, allows land returns, not exchange)
6. Bind the Spirit (not a real card—no direct blue, instant, Arcane with land exchange exists except Shifting Borders)
7. Consuming Vortex (blue, instant, Arcane, but returns creatures to hand, not lands, does have Splice onto Arcane)

Closest instant blue spells that exchange control of lands: only Shifting Borders. Other blue effects exchange control or interact with lands, but not as an instant, or not on lands.


Reason: Only Shifting Borders is a blue instant Arcane that exchanges lands. No true equivalents, but listed related cards.

    Splice

    Rules

  • A card with a splice ability can’t be spliced onto itself because the spell is on the stack (and not in your hand) when you reveal the cards you want to splice onto it.
  • 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.
  • You choose all targets for the spell after revealing cards you want to splice, including any targets required by the text of any of those cards. You may choose a different target for each instance of the word “target” on the resulting spell.
  • You reveal all cards you intend to splice at the same time. Each individual card can be spliced only once onto any one spell.
