Duressutility$0.19One-mana black hand disruption that takes noncreature, nonland cards from the opponent’s hand. It fills a very similar early-game disruption role, though it has a broader target set than Appetite for Brains.Despiseutility$0.10Another 1-mana black discard spell aimed at stripping a specific card type from an opponent’s hand. It is similar in role as cheap, targeted hand disruption, but hits creatures and planeswalkers instead of high mana value cards.Inquisition of Kozilekutility$0.53Premium one-mana discard that snipes an early key card from the opponent’s hand. It overlaps strongly as efficient disruption, though it is narrower in mana value ceiling and broader in card type than Appetite for Brains.Thoughtseizeutility$12.47The strongest 1-mana hand disruption spell, trading 2 life for unmatched flexibility. It performs the same early disruption function and is generally a strict upgrade in versatility.Collective Brutalityutility$0.33Flexible black discard spell that can also remove small creatures or drain life. It serves a similar hand-disruption role while offering broader utility at a slightly higher and scalable cost.Go Blankutility$0.16A disruption spell that attacks the hand and also exiles the graveyard. It is less focused than Appetite for Brains, but it serves a similar role of stripping resources from control or combo opponents.Mind Twistutility$32.90A classic black hand attack spell that can remove multiple cards at once. While much more powerful and expensive, it fulfills the same broad function of proactive discard and hand disruption.Agonizing Remorseutility$0.37One of the closest modern analogs: it exiles a card from hand or graveyard and hits any nonland card. It is slightly broader than Appetite for Brains and a strong functional substitute.
