"Find me cards equivalent to: Tinker"

Cards equivalent to Tinker (Sorcery, Blue, artifact tutor to battlefield, with sacrifice as a cost) are very rare due to the power level. Closest blue alternatives:
1. Reshape – Sorcery, blue. As an additional cost, sacrifice an artifact. Search library for artifact, put onto battlefield, then shuffle. Major difference: X cost restricts target artifact’s mana value.
2. Transmute Artifact – Sorcery, blue. Sacrifice one artifact, search for another, may pay the cost difference, then put it onto the battlefield. Older card, similar function.
3. Whir of Invention – Instant, blue, but requires more blue mana and doesn’t sacrifice, tapped artifacts instead; less direct than Tinker.

Note: No exact modern Tinker due to power level. Tinker itself is banned in many formats.

  • Additional mana spent to cover the differences in mana costs is not part of the mana cost of this spell. It is spent during spell resolution.
  • Because the "search" requires you to find a card with certain characteristics, you don't have to find the card if you don't want to.
  • If the chosen artifact costs less than or the same as the sacrificed artifact, you simply put it onto the battlefield without paying any additional costs.
  • The one from the library enters when the spell is resolved, and this does not count as the casting of an artifact.
  • You can't sacrifice more than one artifact to this spell.
  • The sacrifice of an artifact is an effect of the spell, not a cost, which means it happens as the spell resolves. If Transmute Artifact is countered, you do not have to sacrifice an artifact.

    Sacrifice an artifact. If you do, search your library for an artifact card. If that card's mana value is less than or equal to the sacrificed artifact's mana value, put it onto the battlefield. If it's greater, you may pay , where X is the difference. If you do, put it onto the battlefield. If you don't, put it into its owner's graveyard. Thenshuffle

    Abilities/Keywords

    Improvise

    Rules

  • Because improvise isn't an alternative cost, it can be used in conjunction with alternative costs.
  • 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 Whir of Invention (a spell with improvise and mana cost {X}{U}{U}{U}) and choose X to be 3, the total cost is {3}{U}{U}{U}. If you tap two artifacts, you'll have to pay {1}{U}{U}{U}.
