"Find me cards equivalent to: Tidal Control"

Equivalent cards to Tidal Control (blue enchantments that counter red or green spells, and/or tax effects):
1. Blue Elemental Blast — Instant, U, Counter target red spell or destroy target red permanent.

Reason: Counters red spells, though not an enchantment.

2. Hydroblast — Instant, U, Counter target spell if it's red or destroy target permanent if it's red.

Reason: Similar red-hate counter, different speed.

3. Mystic Remora — Enchantment, U, Cumulative upkeep, taxes noncreature spells for opponents.

Reason: Similar cumulative upkeep, taxes spells.

4. Damping Matrix — Artifact, 3, Activated abilities of artifacts/creatures can't be activated.

Reason: Taxes abilities, not spells, colorless but sometimes played in blue decks.

There are no blue enchantments that specifically counter both red and green spells and have cumulative upkeep like Tidal Control, but Blue Elemental Blast and Hydroblast are the closest for blue countering red spells.

  • A mana ability is an ability that produces mana, not an ability that costs mana.
  • Activated abilities contain a colon. They’re generally written “[Cost]: [Effect].” Some keyword abilities, such as equip, are activated abilities and will have colons in their reminder text.
  • Damping Matrix’s ability affects only artifacts and creatures on the battlefield. Activated abilities that work in other zones (such as bloodrush or unearth) can still be activated. Triggered abilities (starting with “when,” “whenever,” or “at”) are unaffected.

    Rules

  • Cumulative upkeep is a triggered ability that imposes an increasing cost on a permanent. "Cumulative upkeep [cost]" means "At the beginning of your upkeep, if this permanent is on the battlefield, put an age counter on this permanent. Then you may pay [cost] for each age counter on it. If you don't, sacrifice it."
  • Paying cumulative upkeep is always optional. If it's not paid, the permanent with cumulative upkeep is sacrificed. Partial payments of the total cumulative upkeep cost can't be made. For example, if Mystic Remora has three age counters on it when its cumulative upkeep ability triggers, it gets another age counter and then its controller chooses to either pay {4} or sacrifice it.
