5 Cards Found

AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Stall for Time

Equivalent (White/Blue, instant, taps creatures, sometimes with draw or scry):

  • Sleep (taps all creatures target player controls, they don’t untap next turn)
  • Hold the Gates (taps multiple creatures and scries)
  • Crush of Tentacles (bounces all nonland permanents, also in blue, tempo/control)
  • Repulse (returns creature to hand, draws a card—blue tempo with draw)
  • Robe of Mirrors (grants shroud instead of tapping—protection variant)


Reason: All are white or blue instants/sorceries that control/affect creatures, and some have draw or scry. Sleep is the closest mechanically.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Surge

    Rules

  • All other nonland permanents will already be in their owners' hands by the time the Octopus token is created. Any triggered abilities or abilities that would have otherwise affected that Octopus won't be around to matter.
  • Casting a spell for its surge cost doesn't change its mana cost or its mana value.
  • For some cards, surge represents only an alternative cost, a discount that applies if you or a teammate has cast another spell this turn. Other cards, like Reckless Bushwhacker, have additional abilities or effects if you paid the surge cost to cast the spell.
  • If an instant or sorcery spell cast for its surge cost is copied, the copy is also considered to have had its surge cost paid.
  • The other spell that you or a teammate cast can be one that's resolved, one that was countered, or (for instants with surge) one that's still on the stack.
