"Find me cards equivalent to: Sphinx of the Second Sun"

Equivalent cards to Sphinx of the Second Sun are rare, but here are some with similar effects (extra phases/turns or unique phase manipulation), all blue creatures:
1. Nexus of Fate — Instant, but grants an extra turn.
2. Time Warp — Sorcery, but also grants an extra turn.
3. Magus of the Future — Blue creature, manipulates top-deck but not phases.
4. Narset, Parter of Veils — Not a creature, but manipulates draw steps.
5. Unesh, Criosphinx Sovereign — Blue Sphinx with flying and card advantage on Sphinx ETB.

None offer a second beginning phase like Sphinx of the Second Sun, but Nexus of Fate and Time Warp are the closest for extra phases/turns in blue. Blue Sphinxes often have card advantage or flying, not phase alteration.

  • If the top card of your library changes while you're casting a spell, playing a land, or activating an ability, you don't reveal the new top card until you finish doing so. This means that if you cast the top card of your library, you can't look at the next one until you're done paying for that spell; and if you play a land from the top of your library, you can't look at the next card until you're done handling any replacement effects that modify how that land enters the battlefield (such as that of Vesuva).
  • Magus of the Future doesn't change when you can play lands. You can do so only during your main phase when you have priority and the stack is empty.
  • Playing a land from the top of your library counts as your land play for the turn. Once you play a land during your turn, you won't be able to play an additional land from the top of your library unless another effect (such as that of Azusa, Lost but Seeking) allows you to.
  • The top card of your library is still in your library and not in your hand. You can't discard or suspend cards from the top of your library, for example.
  • You must follow the normal timing permissions and restrictions of the spells you cast from your library.
  • You still pay all costs for a spell you cast from your library, including additional costs. You may also pay alternative costs.

  • If an opponent hasn't drawn any cards in a turn and a spell or ability instructs that player to draw multiple cards, that player will just draw one card. However, if the draws are optional, the player can't choose to draw, even if they could draw one card this way.
  • Narset will "see" cards drawn by opponents earlier in the turn she entered the battlefield, although Narset can't affect cards drawn before she entered the battlefield. For example, if an opponent draws two cards, then Narset enters the battlefield, that opponent can't draw more cards that turn, but the two drawn cards are unaffected.
  • Replacement effects (such as that of Underrealm Lich or the first ability of Jace, Wielder of Mysteries) can't be used to replace draws that Narset disallows. However, if an opponent's first draw is replaced (by Underrealm Lich's ability, for example), that draw didn't happen and Narset won't stop the next draw (which may also be replaced by Underrealm Lich's ability).
  • Your opponents can each draw a maximum of one card each on each player's turn. Subsequent card draws during that turn are ignored.

    Rules

  • After the additional beginning phase, the game proceeds to the ending phase (unless something has added even more phases; see below.)
  • Even if you don't attack with any creatures during combat, you'll still get a postcombat main phase and Sphinx of the Second Sun's ability will still trigger.
  • If multiple phases are added to the same point in your turn, the most recently created phase happens first. For example, say you control Sphinx of the Second Sun and its ability triggers during your postcombat main phase. Later during that same main phase, another effect gives you an additional combat phase after this main phase. The additional combat will happen first, followed by the additional beginning phase.
  • If you somehow have more than two main phases in a turn, each main phase other than the first one is a postcombat main phase, and Sphinx of the Second Sun's ability triggers at the beginning of each of them.
  • The additional beginning phase all happens during the current turn. Any effects that last "until your next turn" or similar won't expire just because you'll go through an additional beginning phase.
  • The additional beginning phase will be a lot like your normal beginning phase. During the untap step, permanents will phase in or out as appropriate and you'll untap your tapped permanents. Anything that triggers "at the beginning of your upkeep" or similar will trigger during the upkeep step, and you'll eventually draw a card for your draw step.

  • A pile can have no cards in it. In this case, you'll choose whether to put all the revealed cards into your hand or into your graveyard.
  • In multiplayer games, you choose an opponent to separate the cards when the ability resolves. This doesn't target that opponent. Because the cards are revealed, all players may see the cards and offer opinions.
  • To determine the total cost of a Sphinx spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you're paying, add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The mana value of the creature remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.
  • Unesh's cost-reduction ability doesn't reduce the cost to cast itself.
  • You (not your opponent) choose which pile to put into your hand and which to put into your graveyard.

    Flying Sphinx spells you cast cost less to cast. Whenever Unesh or another Sphinx you control enters, reveal the top four cards of your library. An opponent separates those cards into two piles. Put one pile into your hand and the other into your graveyard.
