Icy Manipulatorutility$111.66A classic repeatable tap-down engine that can lock down artifacts, creatures, or lands one at a time. It fills a similar control/tempo role, though it uses mana instead of creatures to activate.Timestream NavigatorfinisherBudget$1.41Not a tap-down effect, but it provides a comparable long-game control advantage by repeatedly taking extra turns when enabled. Like Opposition, it rewards building around board presence and can dominate a game if unanswered.Propagandautility$3.26Another blue control enchantment that slows combat and buys time for a board-based strategy. It does not tap permanents, but it serves a similar defensive role in mono-blue decks.SleepremovalBudget$0.13A strong tempo spell that taps down an opponent's team and keeps them from untapping for a turn. It is a one-shot version of Opposition's board-control plan.Flood of TearsremovalBudget$1.75A blue control reset that can clear troublesome permanents and create a swingy advantage. It is not repeatable, but it can function as a similar stabilizing tool in mono-blue.Roots of LifeutilityBudget$0.35This is not functionally the same effect, but it is a repeatable enchantment-based control piece that helps a blue control shell survive long enough to dominate. Included as a budget-friendly utility option for enchantment-based lock styles.Tangle Wireutility$31.25A powerful tax effect that repeatedly keeps permanents tapped and creates a soft lock. It is colorless and more aggressive, but it serves a similar prison/tempo purpose.Smokestackutility$4.91A classic prison card that pressures opponents' boards over time and can lock games when built around properly. It is broader than Opposition, but serves a similar attrition/control function.
