"Find me cards equivalent to: Cecil, Dark Knight"

Equivalent cards in black (B) with similar mechanics to Cecil, Dark Knight:
1. Glissa, the Traitor

  • Type: Legendary Creature — Zombie Elf
  • Keyword: Deathtouch

  • Reason: Shares legendary status and deathtouch ability.
    2. Yahenni, Undying Partisan
  • Type: Legendary Creature — Aetherborn Vampire
  • Color: B
  • Text: Self-sacrifice for indestructible; interacts with life/damage via sacrifice.

  • Reason: Legendary black creature with self-preservation triggers.
    3. Skithiryx, the Blight Dragon
  • Type: Legendary Creature — Dragon Skeleton
  • Color: B
  • Text: Infect, which acts like a damage tradeoff mechanic, and can return from graveyard at a cost.

  • Reason: Legendary, black, has damage-related drawback.

The card Cecil, Dark Knight uniquely blends deathtouch and a self-harm trigger on damage, plus a transform/untap mechanic (most similar to werewolf or modal double-faced cards like Arlinn, the Pack's Hope // Arlinn, the Moon's Fury). No existing card matches all mechanics, but the above are closest in B.

  • After Arlinn, the Moon Fury's second loyalty ability resolves, she is a Werewolf creature and not a planeswalker, so she doesn't lose loyalty counters when she's dealt damage.
  • Arlinn, the Moon's Fury's first loyalty ability is not a mana ability. It uses the stack and may be responded to.
  • Before a player untaps their permanents during the untap step, the game checks to see if the day/night designation should change.
  • Day and night are designations that the game itself can have. The game starts as neither. Once the game becomes day (or less commonly, night), the game will be exactly one of them—day or night—going back and forth for the rest of the game.
  • Double-faced permanents with daybound transform to their nightbound faces as it becomes night. Similarly, double-faced permanents with nightbound transform to their daybound faces as it becomes day. This happens immediately and is not a state-based action. It happens any time it becomes day or night, not just during the untap step.
  • If Arlinn, the Moon Fury's second loyalty ability is making her a Werewolf creature and it somehow becomes day, Arlinn will transform, but the effect making her a Werewolf creature will continue to apply for the rest of the turn.
  • If it is day, and the active player of the previous turn cast no spells during their turn, it becomes night.
  • If it is night, and the active player of the previous turn cast two or more spells during their turn, it becomes day.
  • If it is night, permanents with daybound that enter the battlefield without being cast will enter with their nightbound faces up.
  • If it's neither day nor night, and a creature with daybound and a creature with nightbound somehow appear on the battlefield at the same time, it becomes day. The creature with nightbound will transform.
  • If you cast a spell with daybound during night, that spell will be front face up (that is, daybound face up) on the stack. However, it will enter the battlefield with its back face up (that is, with its nightbound face up). It won't enter with its daybound face up and then transform.
  • Permanents with daybound and nightbound can't transform via any means other than their daybound and nightbound abilities. Notably, older cards such as Moonmist that instruct a player to transform permanents don't affect permanents with daybound or nightbound.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Flying Infect

    Rules

  • A player who has ten or more poison counters loses the game. This is a state-based action.
  • Activating the regeneration ability creates a replacement effect that acts like a shield, replacing the next time Skithiryx would be destroyed that turn. The shield works against effects that try to destroy Skithiryx or lethal damage that would be dealt to Skithiryx.
  • Damage from a source with infect is damage in all respects. If the source with infect also has lifelink, damage dealt by that source also causes its controller to gain that much life. Damage from a source with infect can be prevented or redirected. Abilities that trigger on damage being dealt will trigger if a source with infect deals damage, if appropriate.
  • Damage that a creature with infect deals doesn't result in damage being marked on a creature or a player losing life. Instead, it results in that many -1/-1 counters being put on that creature or that many poison counters being given to that player. Damage dealt to planeswalkers still results in that planeswalker losing that many loyalty counters. Damage dealt to battles still results in that battle losing that many defense counters.
  • If the regeneration shield is used, Skithiryx isn't destroyed, all damage marked on Skithiryx is healed, it becomes tapped, and it's removed from combat (if applicable).
  • Skithiryx can regenerate even if it isn't in combat, it's already tapped, or it's undamaged.
  • The -1/-1 counters remain on the creature indefinitely. They're not removed if the creature regenerates or the turn ends.
