"Find me cards equivalent to: Urban Evolution"

Equivalent cards to Urban Evolution (Sorcery, Green/Blue, draw, extra land):
1. Growth Spiral (Instant, GU): Draw a card, put a land from hand onto battlefield.
2. Explore (Sorcery, G): Draw a card, you may play an additional land.
3. Escape to the Wilds (Sorcery, RG): Exile top five, play an extra land this turn (not GU, but similar effect).
4. Nissa's Expedition (Sorcery, G): Search for lands—not draw.

Closest direct equivalents are Growth Spiral and Explore; none exactly match both the draw-three and extra land in GU at sorcery speed. Urban Evolution remains unique for drawing three and an extra land.

    Rules

  • Casting an exiled card causes it to leave exile. You can't cast it multiple times.
  • Escape to the Wilds doesn't change when you can play the exiled cards. For example, if you exile a sorcery card, you can cast it only during your main phase when the stack is empty. If you exile a land card, you can play it only during your main phase and only if you have an available land play remaining.
  • If you don't play a card exiled this way, it remains in exile.
  • The additional land that you play doesn't have to be from among the exiled cards.

    Rules

  • Explore's effect allows you to play an additional land during your main phase. Doing so follows the normal timing rules for playing lands. In particular, you don't get to play a land as Explore resolves; Explore fully resolves first and you draw a card, perhaps a land you'll play later.
  • If you somehow manage to cast Explore when it's not your turn, you'll draw a card when it resolves, but you won't be able to play a land that turn.
  • The effects of multiple Explores in the same turn are cumulative. They're also cumulative with other effects that let you play additional lands, such as the one from Urban Evolution.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Convoke

    Rules

  • Because convoke isn't an alternative cost, it can be used in conjunction with alternative costs.
  • If a creature you control has a mana ability with {T} in the cost, activating that ability while casting a spell with convoke will result in the creature being tapped before you pay the spell's costs. You won't be able to tap it again for convoke. Similarly, if you sacrifice a creature to activate a mana ability while casting a spell with convoke, that creature won't be on the battlefield when you pay the spell's costs, so you won't be able to tap it for convoke.
  • Tapping a multicolored creature using convoke will pay for {1} or one mana of your choice of any of that creature's colors.
  • Tapping an untapped creature that's attacking or blocking to convoke a spell won't cause that creature to stop attacking or blocking.
  • 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. Convoke applies after the total cost is calculated. Convoke doesn't change a spell's mana cost or mana value.
  • You can tap any untapped creature you control to convoke a spell, even one you haven't controlled continuously since the beginning of your most recent turn.
