AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Submerge

Equivalent cards to Submerge (Blue, instant-speed, puts creature on top of library):

  • Pongify (destroys, but leaves a token)
  • Rapid Hybridization (similar to Pongify)
  • Aetherize (returns all attacking creatures to owner's hand)
  • Expel from Orazca (can put on top of library if you have ascend)
  • Unsubstantiate (returns a spell or creature to hand)


Reason: Blue cards that efficiently remove/delay creatures by returning them or similar effects. None are free like Submerge, but offer some overlap in utility.

    Rules

  • An "attacking creature" is one that has been declared as an attacker this combat, or one that was put onto the battlefield attacking this combat. Unless that creature leaves combat, it continues to be an attacking creature through the end of combat step, even if the player it was attacking has left the game, or the planeswalker it was attacking has left combat. There's no such thing as an attacking creature outside of the combat phase.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Ascend

    Rules

  • A permanent is any object on the battlefield, including tokens and lands. Spells and emblems aren’t permanents.
  • If you cast a spell with ascend, you don’t get the city’s blessing until it resolves. Players may respond to that spell by trying to change whether you get the city’s blessing.
  • If you control ten permanents but don’t control a permanent or resolving spell with ascend, you don’t get the city’s blessing. For example, if you control ten permanents, lose control of one, then cast Golden Demise, you won’t have the city’s blessing and the spell will affect creatures you control.
  • If you have the city’s blessing and choose not to put the target nonland permanent on top of its owner’s library, it’s returned to its owner’s hand.
  • If your tenth permanent enters the battlefield and then a permanent leaves the battlefield immediately afterwards (most likely due to the “Legend Rule” or due to being a creature with 0 toughness), you get the city’s blessing before it leaves the battlefield.
  • Once you have the city’s blessing, you have it for the rest of the game, even if you lose control of some or all of your permanents. The city’s blessing isn’t a permanent itself and can’t be removed by any effect.

    Ascend (If you control ten or more permanents, you get the city's blessing for the rest of the game.) Return target nonland permanent to its owner's hand. If you have the city's blessing, you may put that permanent on top of its owner's library instead.

    Rules

  • If the target creature is an illegal target by the time Pongify tries to resolve, the spell won't resolve. No player creates an Ape token. If the target is legal but not destroyed (most likely because it has indestructible), its controller does create an Ape token.

    Rules

  • If the creature is an illegal target when Rapid Hybridization tries to resolve, it won't resolve and none of its effects will happen. No Frog Lizard token will be created.
  • If Rapid Hybridization resolves and the creature isn't destroyed (perhaps because it has indestructible), its controller will still get the Frog Lizard token.

    Rules

  • If a spell is returned to its owner's hand, it's removed from the stack and thus will not resolve. The spell isn't countered; it just no longer exists. This works against a spell that can't be countered.
