"Find me cards equivalent to: Stranglehold"

Here are equivalent or similar cards to Stranglehold that are red enchantments and interact with searching libraries or extra turns:
1. Aven Mindcensor (white, similar effect, but not red)
2. Obstinate Familiar (red, but only interacts with skipping extra draws, not extra turns/search)
3. Possibility Storm (red, messes with casting/searching from libraries, but with a different mechanic)

Conclusion:
Stranglehold is unique among red enchantments for its combined effects. No other red enchantment does exactly both effects. Closest are Possibility Storm for library shenanigans, but nothing with the exact combination.

  • After the search is complete, the entire library is shuffled.
  • Each search works exactly the same as normal except that the opponent doing the searching sees only the top four cards of that library. They can't look at the other cards in that library at all. Cards not in the top four cards of the library can't be found in the search, even if they're identifiable in some manner.
  • For effects that check whether a player searched a library or may search a library, searching the top four cards of that library counts as searching that library.
  • If an effect uses the word "search" once but allows an opponent to search for multiple cards, the top four cards remain the same throughout the entire search. Finding one card won't cause the fifth card to become included in the search.

    Rules

  • Artifact, battle, creature, enchantment, instant, kindred, land, planeswalker, and sorcery are card types. Two cards share a card type if they have at least one card type in common.
  • If Possibility Storm's ability doesn't exile the original spell (perhaps because another Possibility Storm already exiled it), you'll still exile cards from the top of your library until you exile a card that shares a card type with it and have the opportunity to cast that spell.
  • If the spell you cast from exile has X in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as its value.
  • If you cast a spell without paying its mana cost, you can't choose to cast it for any alternative costs, such as overload costs. You can pay additional costs, such as kicker costs. If the spell has any mandatory additional costs, you must pay those.
  • Instant and sorcery cards with miracle allow a player to cast a card immediately upon drawing it. If a player casts a spell this way, the spell is cast from that player's hand. Possibility Storm will trigger.
  • The original spell is part of the group of exiled cards put on the bottom of the library in a random order. If the exiled card that shared a card type with that card wasn't cast, it's also part of this group.

    Whenever a player casts a spell from their hand, that player exiles it, then exiles cards from the top of their library until they exile a card that shares a card type with it. That player may cast that card without paying its mana cost. Then they put all cards exiled with this enchantment on the bottom of their library in a random order.

    Rules

  • An “extra turn” means a turn created by a spell or ability. It doesn’t refer to a turn taken in a sanctioned tournament after the time limit for the round has expired.
  • Effects that instruct your opponents to reveal or look at cards from the top of their libraries will still work. Only effects that use the word “search” are affected.
  • If an effect says “Search your library . . . then shuffle your library,” your opponents shuffle their libraries even though they can’t search.
  • If an effect says “You may search your library . . . If you do, shuffle your library” or “You may search your library . . . then shuffle your library,” your opponents can’t choose to search, so they won’t shuffle.
  • If an opponent’s extra turn is created while Stranglehold is on the battlefield, but Stranglehold leaves the battlefield before that turn would begin, that opponent takes the extra turn as normal.

    Your opponents can't search libraries. If an opponent would begin an extra turn, that player skips that turn instead.
