Gigadrowseutility$0.23A cheap blue tempo spell that can repeatedly tap down creatures or other permanents, often functioning as a control or stall tool. It overlaps with Sleep of the Dead in being a low-cost way to deny an opposing creature a turn cycle.Frost BreathremovalBudget$0.05Directly taps two creatures and keeps them from untapping on the next untap step, making it a very close functional match. It is stronger at locking down multiple attackers but costs more mana.Ice OverremovalBudget$0.06A blue tap effect that can neutralize a creature while also freezing a permanent with the same untap restriction. It serves a similar tempo-control role, though it is more expensive and can hit any permanent.Blink of an Eyeutility$0.14Not identical, but it is a cheap blue tempo answer that can temporarily remove a creature from combat or reset it by bouncing it. Like Sleep of the Dead, it buys a turn while staying flexible.Voyage's Endutility$0.13A low-cost blue tempo spell that returns a creature to hand and can scry, serving the same stall-and-delay purpose. It is less permanent than tapping, but often functionally similar in buying time.Freeze in PlaceremovalBudget$0.08This is a blue lock piece that taps a creature and prevents it from untapping, closely mirroring Sleep of the Dead's effect. It is slower but more persistent.Claustrophobiaremoval$0.12A classic blue common that effectively neutralizes a creature by tapping it and stopping it from untapping. It fills the same role of disabling a threat, though it is enchantment-based and costs more.ArrestremovalBudget$0.07A white analogue to blue tap-down effects, it shuts off a creature by preventing combat and activated abilities. It is not blue, but it occupies a similar spot as a cheap way to contain a threat.
