"Find me cards equivalent to: Swan Song"

Equivalent cards to Swan Song (type: Instant, color: U, counterspell effect, drawback) are:
1. Spell Pierce – Instant, U, counters unless controller pays
2. Both are cheap counters, but no token drawback.
2. An Offer You Can’t Refuse – Instant, U, counters noncreature spell, controller gets two Treasure tokens. Closest in spirit to Swan Song.
3. Miscast – Instant, U, counters instant or sorcery unless 3 paid. No creature token.
4. Stubborn Denial – Instant, U, counters noncreature unless 1 paid; can counter outright with ferocious.


Reason: All above are U instants that counter noncreature spells with a drawback or condition, similar to Swan Song. None exactly match its scope and drawback (a 2/2 token), but An Offer You Can’t Refuse is closest.

  • Ferocious abilities of instants and sorceries that don’t use the word “instead” will provide an additional effect if you control a creature with power 4 or greater as they resolve.
  • Some ferocious abilities that appear on instants and sorceries use the word “instead.” These spells have an upgraded effect if you control a creature with power 4 or greater as they resolve. For these, you only get the upgraded effect, not both effects.
