"Find me cards equivalent to: Thoughtcast"

Equivalent cards to Thoughtcast (Sorcery, Blue, Draw, and Affinity for Artifacts) are rare, because Thoughtcast is an instant and most draw spells aren’t exactly the same. Here are some close options:
1. Thoughtcast — Original card, best fit.
2. Reverse Engineer — Sorcery, Blue, has Improvise (cost reduction with artifacts), and draws three cards.
3. Efficient Construction (Not a draw spell, but creates artifact synergy in blue).


Reason: Reverse Engineer is closest — it’s blue, a sorcery, utilizes artifact synergies for cost reduction, but draws three cards. There’s currently no other blue sorcery with Affinity for Artifacts that draws two.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Improvise

    Rules

  • Equipment attached to a creature doesn't become tapped when that creature becomes tapped, and tapping that Equipment doesn't cause the creature to become tapped.
  • If an artifact you control has a mana ability with {T} in the cost, activating that ability while casting a spell with improvise will result in the artifact being tapped when you pay the spell's costs. You won't be able to tap it again for improvise. Similarly, if you sacrifice an artifact to activate a mana ability while casting a spell with improvise, that artifact won't be on the battlefield when you pay the spell's costs, so you won't be able to tap it for improvise.
  • Improvise can't be used to pay for anything other than the cost of casting the spell. For example, it can't be used during the resolution of an ability that says “Counter target spell unless its controller pays {3}.”
  • Improvise can't pay for {W}, {U}, {B}, {R}, {G}, or {C} mana symbols in a spell's total cost.
  • Improvise doesn't change a spell's mana cost or mana value.
  • Tapping an artifact won't cause its abilities to stop applying unless those abilities say so.
  • When calculating a spell's total cost, include any alternative costs, additional costs, or anything else that increases or reduces the cost to cast the spell. Improvise applies after the total cost is calculated.
  • When using improvise to cast a spell with {X} in its mana cost, first choose the value for X. That choice, plus any cost increases or decreases, will determine the spell's total cost. Then you can tap artifacts you control to help pay that cost. For example, if you cast Saheeli's Directive and choose X to be 3, the total cost is {3}{R}{R}{R}. If you tap two artifacts, you'll have to pay {1}{R}{R}{R}.

    Improvise (Your artifacts can help cast this spell. Each artifact you tap after you're done activating mana abilities pays for .) Draw three cards.
