"Find me cards equivalent to: Hormagaunt Horde"

Equivalent cards in green (G) with similar recursion from the graveyard and payoff for landfall are:

  • Hormagaunt Horde
  • Eternal Witness (returns any card from graveyard to hand on ETB)
  • Scute Mob (scales with lands, but doesn’t recur)
  • Golgari Brownscale (returns itself to hand when it’s discarded)
  • Loaming Shaman (shuffles graveyard into library when ETB)
  • Genesis (recurs creatures from graveyard during upkeep)
  • Jadelight Spelunker (uses +1/+1 counters and Explore, not recursion)


Reason: True landfall recursion is rare in mono-green; the best matches replicate recursion or scaling with lands, but nothing is a perfect copy. Hormagaunt Horde is unique in combining both mechanics.

    Dredge Mill

    Rules

  • The first ability triggers when Golgari Brownscale returns to your hand from your graveyard for any reason, not just when you use its dredge ability.
  • Dredge can replace any card draw, not only the one during your draw step.
  • If an effect puts a card into your hand without specifically using the word "draw," you're not drawing a card. Dredge can't replace this event.
  • If you're drawing multiple cards, each draw is performed one at a time. For example, if you're instructed to draw two cards and you replace the first draw with a dredge ability, another card with a dredge ability (including one that was milled by the first dredge ability) may be used to replace the second draw.
  • Once you've announced that you're applying a card's dredge ability to replace a draw, players can't take any actions until you've put that card into your hand and milled cards.
  • One card draw can't be replaced by multiple dredge abilities.
  • You can't attempt to use a dredge ability if you don't have enough cards in your library.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Ravenous

    Rules

  • A creature with ravenous gets its counters as it enters the battlefield. It doesn't enter the battlefield first and then get its counters. Any triggered ability that looks for a creature with a certain power or toughness entering the battlefield will see the counters when it checks to see if it should trigger.
  • If a permanent spell with ravenous is copied, the copy will have the same value for X, and the token permanent that the spell becomes as it enters the battlefield will enter with X counters.
  • If another permanent enters the battlefield as a copy of a creature with Ravenous, it will not enter with any counters from the ravenous ability.
  • Players can respond to the triggered ability, but once it starts resolving and you decide whether to pay {2}{G}, it's too late for anyone to respond.
  • The Endless Swarm ability triggers only if Hormagaunt Horde is in your graveyard at the moment the land enters the battlefield.
  • The Endless Swarm ability triggers whenever a land enters the battlefield under your control for any reason. It triggers whenever you play a land, as well as whenever a spell or ability puts a land onto the battlefield under your control.
  • The triggered ability that checks to see if X is 5 or greater refers to the value of X that was chosen as the spell was cast, which may be different from the number of counters it entered with if there are replacement effects involved. This is also true for any other ability that it has which refers to X and triggers when it enters the battlefield.

    Explore

    Rules

  • If Jadelight Spelunker enters the battlefield without being cast, or if it was cast with X equal to 0, the enters-the-battlefield ability will still trigger, but Jadelight Spelunker won't explore at all.
  • If a resolving spell or ability instructs a specific creature to explore but that creature has left the battlefield, the creature still explores. If you reveal a nonland card this way, you won't put a +1/+1 counter on anything, but you may put the revealed card into your graveyard. Effects that trigger "whenever a creature explores" trigger as appropriate.
  • If an ability instructs a creature to explore, its controller reveals the top card of their library. If it's a land card, they'll put it into their hand. Otherwise, they'll put a +1/+1 counter on that creature, then choose to either leave that card on top of their library or put it into their graveyard.
  • If no card is revealed, most likely because that player's library is empty, the exploring creature receives a +1/+1 counter.
  • In some unusual cases, noncreature permanents may explore. For example, if the creature card returned by Defossilize is somehow not a creature once it's on the battlefield, it can still explore. You'll take all the same actions, and you may end up putting a +1/+1 counter on the permanent. (Note that some effects target a creature, and those effects would still require a legal target to have it explore.)
  • Once an ability that causes a creature to explore begins to resolve, no player may take any other actions until it's done. Notably, opponents can't try to remove the exploring creature after you reveal a nonland card but before it receives a counter.
  • Some spells or abilities might cause a creature to explore multiple times in a row. If you reveal a nonland card when a creature explores and leave it on top of your library, then the creature explores again immediately afterwards, you'll reveal the same card again.
