"Find me cards equivalent to: Defile"

Cards equivalent to Defile (black Instant, scales with swamps):
1. Eleyet, the Formless (not an exact match, but Eleyet can give -1/-1 as a cost reduction effect based on swamps, not instant speed)
2. Tendrils of Corruption (Black Instant, scales with Swamps, but deals damage instead of -1/-1)
3. Corrupt (Black Sorcery, not instant, scales with Swamps, does damage and gains life)
4. Quag Sickness (Black Aura, not instant, gives -1/-1 for each Swamp you control)


Reason: There are few if any other instants that apply a -1/-1 per Swamp you control other than Defile. Tendrils of Corruption is the closest black instant with similar scaling, but it deals damage instead of shrinking.

    Rules

  • The swamps are counted on resolution.
  • The amount of damage dealt to a creature is not bounded by its toughness, and the amount of damage dealt to a player is not bounded by that player's life total. For example, if Corrupt deals 6 damage to a 2/2 creature, you'll gain 6 life.
  • The life you gain is equal to the damage dealt by Corrupt, not necessarily to the number of Swamps you control (if some or all of the damage is prevented, for example).
  • Corrupt counts any land you control with the subtype Swamp, not just ones named Swamp.
  • Corrupt counts any land you control with the subtype Swamp, not just ones named Swamp.

    Enchant

    Rules

  • The ability cares about lands with the land type Swamp, not necessarily lands named Swamp.
  • This ability counts the number of Swamps controlled by Quag Sickness’s controller, not the enchanted creature’s controller (in case they’re different players).
  • This bonus is not fixed; it changes as the number of Swamps you control changes.
