"Find me cards equivalent to: Ardbert, Warrior of Darkness"

Equivalent (same color, similar effect) to Ardbert, Warrior of Darkness:
1. Falco Spara, Pactweaver (puts counters on creatures; white in color identity)
2. Mikaeus, the Lunarch (puts +1/+1 counters; white)
3. Karlov of the Ghost Council (gets counters for life gain; black and white)
4. Anafenza, the Foremost (puts counters on attacking creatures; white and black)
5. Drana, Liberator of Malakir (puts counters on attacking creatures; black)


Reason: All are legendary creatures, in white/black, and interact with +1/+1 counters, similar to Ardbert, Warrior of Darkness. None fully replicate Ardbert’s spell-based triggers, but these are functionally similar within Orzhov (B/W) colors.

    Rules

  • Anafenza's first ability can target any tapped creature you control. That creature doesn't necessarily have to be attacking.
  • Anafenza's last ability cares only what the card would be in the zone it's moving from, not what it would be in the graveyard. For example, if a land card you control becomes a creature due to an effect and then dies, the land card will be exiled. But if a creature card with bestow is an Aura when it would be put into the graveyard, it ends up in the graveyard.
  • If your opponent discards a creature card while Anafenza is on the battlefield, abilities that function when a card is discarded (such as madness) still work, even though that card never reaches a graveyard. In addition, spells or abilities that check the characteristics of a discarded card (such as Chandra Ablaze's first ability) can find that card in exile.
  • While Anafenza is on the battlefield, abilities that trigger whenever a nontoken creature your opponent owns dies won't trigger, as that card will never reach that player's graveyard. (Token creatures will still go to the graveyard briefly before ceasing to exist.)

    Whenever Anafenza attacks, put a +1/+1counteron another target tapped creature you control. If a nontoken creature an opponent owns would die or a creature card not on the battlefield would be put into an opponent's graveyard, exile that card instead.

    Flying

    Rules

  • Drana's last ability triggers after combat damage has been dealt, so only attacking creatures that survive the combat damage step in which Drana deals combat damage will have +1/+1 counters put on them.
  • The +1/+1 counter won't change how much damage Drana or any other attacking creature with first strike or double strike deals during that combat damage step. However, the +1/+1 counters that are put on attacking creatures without first strike will affect the damage those creatures deal during the regular combat damage step.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Flying Trample

    Rules

  • "Shield" is not an ability that creatures have and shield counters are not keyword counters. If a creature with a shield counter loses its abilities, the shield counter will still protect it as normal.
  • A creature with a shield counter on it may still be destroyed by state-based actions if it has damage marked on it equal to its toughness or has been dealt unpreventable damage by a source with deathtouch.
  • If a permanent that would be dealt damage has more than one shield counter on it, that damage is prevented and only one shield counter is removed.
  • If a permanent with a shield counter is dealt unpreventable damage, that damage will be dealt and a shield counter will still be removed.
  • If you cast a spell with casualty this way, you can pay the costs in any order, which means that you may remove a counter from a creature then sacrifice it to pay the casualty cost. Bear in mind that removing a +1/+1 counter this way will reduce a creature's power, which might prevent you from paying the casualty cost with that creature.
  • Removing a counter from a creature is an additional cost of casting the spell and may be combined with other additional costs or alternative costs that spell may have, such as casualty.
  • Removing a shield counter in this way isn't the same as regenerating a creature.
  • Shield counters don't prevent players from sacrificing creatures.

    Rules

  • A creature with lifelink dealing combat damage is a single life-gaining event. For example, if two creatures you control with lifelink deal combat damage at the same time, the ability will trigger twice. However, if a single creature with lifelink deals combat damage to multiple players or permanents at the same time (perhaps because it has trample or was blocked by more than one creature), the ability will trigger only once.
  • In a Two-Headed Giant game, life gained by your teammate won't cause the ability to trigger, even though it causes your team's life total to increase.
  • The ability triggers just once for each life-gaining event, whether it's 1 life from an attacking creature with lifelink or 4 life from Faith's Fetters.
