"Find me cards equivalent to: Desperate Plea"

Cards equivalent to Desperate Plea (Sorcery, B, graveyard recursion or destroy a creature, with a cost):
1. Victimize — Returns two creature cards from your graveyard to the battlefield tapped, sacrifices a creature as cost.
2. Foul Renewal — Return a creature from graveyard, destroy a creature if they match toughness.
3. Final Parting — Puts a card in hand and one in graveyard (tutoring plus graveyard), not exactly the same but similar recursion strategies.
4. Necromancy — Returns creature from graveyard to battlefield (more expensive, but close in recursion).
5. Bone Shards — Sacrifice/Discard a card to destroy a creature.


Reason: All are black sorceries or effects involving creature recursion or destruction, and most require a sacrifice or specific graveyard tie-in. Closest to Desperate Plea are Victimize, Foul Renewal, and Bone Shards.

    Rules

  • The bringing of the creature onto the battlefield and then putting Necromancy on it is all done as part of the resolution.
  • When putting a card onto the battlefield that requires a definition for its value or some other choice, you do what is needed to define the value or make the choice.
  • Necromancy enters as an enchantment and then becomes an Enchant Creature Aura as a triggered ability upon entering. It follows all the rules for Auras from then on.
  • If the creature card put onto the battlefield has protection from black (or anything that prevents this from legally being attached), this won't be able to attach to it. Then this will go to the graveyard as a state-based action, causing the creature to be sacrificed.
  • The sacrifice occurs only if you cast it using its own ability. If you cast it using some other effect (for example, if another effect allowed you to cast it as though it had flash), then it won't be sacrificed.

    You may cast this spell as though it had flash. If you cast it any time a sorcery couldn't have been cast, the controller of the permanent it becomes sacrifices it at the beginning of the next cleanup step. When this enchantment enters, if it's on the battlefield, it becomes an Aura with "enchant creature put onto the battlefield with Necromancy." Put target creature card from a graveyard onto the battlefield under your control and attach this enchantment to it. When this enchantment leaves the battlefield, that creature's controller sacrifices it.

    Rules

  • As Victimize resolves, you must sacrifice a creature if able. You can't change your mind and choose not to sacrifice anything.
  • If one of the targeted creature cards is an illegal target (for instance, because it has left your graveyard before Victimize resolves), you'll still sacrifice a creature and put the other card onto the battlefield. If both are illegal targets, Victimize won't resolve. You won't sacrifice a creature.
  • The creature you sacrifice isn't chosen until Victimize resolves. You can't return the creature you sacrifice because it will still be on the battlefield at the time targets are chosen.
  • You must choose two targets. You can't cast Victimize targeting only one creature card.
