Baral, Chief of Compliancecost_reduction$13.68Reduces the cost of your instants and sorceries, giving a very similar spell-smoothing role in blue-based decks. It also provides incidental value by looting when your spells are countered.Foundry Inspectorcost_reductionBudget$0.44A classic artifact cost reducer that plays the same functional role for artifact-heavy decks. It is less flexible than Urza because it only helps artifacts, but it is cheaper and colorless.Jhoira's Familiarcost_reductionBudget$1.51Reduces the cost of historic spells, covering artifacts and many legendary/legendary-adjacent plays in a similar build-around shell. It offers a broader but less universal version of Urza’s discount.Grand Arbiter Augustin IVcost_reduction$16.55Makes your white and blue spells cheaper while taxing opponents, occupying a similar Azorius value/control role. It is stronger defensively but narrower in what it discounts.Helm of Awakeningcost_reductionBudget$1.20A universal cost reducer for spells, artifacts, and combo turns, similar to the mana-efficiency Urza provides. Unlike Urza, it helps all players, making it a risky but powerful budget option.Etherium Sculptorcost_reductionBudget$0.74Discounts artifact spells specifically, which closely matches one half of Urza’s cost reduction package. It is one mana cheaper and ideal for artifact-centric decks.Semblance Anvilcost_reduction$6.55Can make a whole class of spells cheaper after imprinting, functioning as a stronger build-around reducer in the right deck. It is slower and more conditional than Urza, but can provide larger discounts.Sapphire Medallioncost_reduction$9.77Reduces the cost of blue spells, making it a very efficient analog for the blue half of Urza’s effect. It is less versatile, but often even easier to deploy and exploit.
