"Find me cards equivalent to: Hecatomb"

Equivalent cards to Hecatomb (black enchantment, strong sacrifice & ping effect) include:
1. Hecatomb (reference card)
2. Bloodchief Ascension – Enchantment, triggers on opponent actions for damage/life drain.
3. Polluted Bonds – Black enchantment that punishes land plays with life loss.
4. Painful Quandary – Enchantment, opponent loses life or discards when casting spells.
5. Palace Siege (Dragons mode) – Enchantment, deals 2 damage to each opponent at upkeep.


Reason: True equivalents are rare, but these are black enchantments that punish opponents or enable draining/pinging life, closest in color and effect. Hecatomb is unique for its Swamp-tapping mechanic.

    Rules

  • Bloodchief Ascension's first ability checks how much life was lost by each opponent over the course of the entire turn, even if Bloodchief Ascension wasn't on the battlefield the whole time.
  • Bloodchief Ascension's first ability checks only whether life was lost. It doesn't care whether life was also gained. For example, if an opponent lost 4 life and gained 6 life during the turn, that player will have a higher life total than they started the turn with — but Bloodchief Ascension's first ability will still trigger.
  • Bloodchief Ascension's first ability has an "intervening 'if' clause." It won't trigger at all unless an opponent has already lost 2 or more life by the time the end step begins.
  • Bloodchief Ascension's second ability doesn't behave like a leaves-the-battlefield triggered ability, since the card put into an opponent's graveyard may come from anywhere. If a Bloodchief Ascension with three quest counters on it and a permanent an opponent owns are destroyed at the same time, for example, the game will not "look back in time" at the game state, and Bloodchief Ascension's second ability won't trigger.
  • For the first ability to trigger, a single opponent must have lost 2 life. Two opponents each losing 1 life won't cause it to trigger. It will trigger a maximum of once per turn, no matter how many opponents have lost 2 or more life.

    Rules

  • Each Siege will have one of the two listed abilities, depending on your choice as it enters the battlefield.
  • Each of the last two abilities is linked to the first ability. They each refer only to the choice made as a result of the first ability. If a permanent enters the battlefield as a copy of one of the Sieges, its controller will make a new choice for that Siege. Which ability the copy has won’t depend on the choice made for the original permanent.
  • The words “Khans” and “Dragons” are anchor words, connecting your choice to the appropriate ability. Anchor words are a new rules concept. “[Anchor word] — [Ability]” means “As long as you chose [anchor word] as this permanent entered the battlefield, this permanent has [ability].” Notably, the anchor word “Dragons” has no connection to the creature type Dragon.
