AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Spinal Embrace

Equivalent cards (blue/black, control, instant speed, creature steal or kill):

  • Domineering Will (steal creatures temporarily, blue)
  • Mind Control (permanent control, blue, but sorcery/Enchant)
  • Sudden Spoiling (removes abilities, black, not steal but instant control aspect)
  • Hijack (red, so not exact colors, but similar effect)

Closest in blue/black and instant: No direct equivalents, but Domineering Will is the nearest. Spinal Embrace is unique for its untap, gain control, and kill effect.

  • Each of those creatures blocks only if it's able to do so as the declare blockers step begins. If, at that time, one of the creatures is tapped, is affected by a spell or ability that says it can't block, or no creatures are attacking that creature's controller or a planeswalker controlled by that player, then it doesn't block. If there's a cost associated with having the creature block, the player isn't forced to pay that cost, so it doesn't block in that case either.
  • Notably, Domineering Will doesn't give any of the target creatures haste. Unless they have haste due to some other means, they won't be able to attack that turn.
  • The controller of the creatures still chooses which attacking creature each of the three target creatures blocks.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Rules

  • After a spell with split second resolves (or otherwise leaves the stack), players may again cast spells and activate abilities before the next object on the stack resolves.
  • Casting a spell with split second won't affect spells and abilities that are already on the stack.
  • If the resolution of a triggered ability involves casting a spell, that spell can't be cast if a spell with split second is on the stack.
  • Players may turn face-down creatures face up while a spell with split second is on the stack.
  • Players still get priority while a card with split second is on the stack; their options are just limited to mana abilities and certain special actions.
  • Split second doesn't stop triggered abilities from triggering, such as that of Chalice of the Void. If one does, its controller puts it on the stack and chooses targets for it, if any. Those abilities will resolve as normal.
  • Sudden Spoiling affects only creatures the target player controls at the time it resolves. Creatures they begin to control later in the turn won't change power and toughness or lose abilities.
  • Sudden Spoiling overwrites any effects that set a creature's power and toughness. Any existing effects or counters that raise, lower, or switch a creature's power and/or toughness continue to apply to the creature's newly-set power and toughness.
