"Find me cards equivalent to: Ossuary Rats"

Equivalent cards to Ossuary Rats (creature, black, rat, enters and deals damage equal to creature cards in graveyard):
1. Ossuary Rats — Original card.
2. Gutter Skulker — Blue, so not equivalent.
3. Gray Merchant of Asphodel — Black, but counts devotion, not creature cards.
4. Kothophed’s Choir — Closest effect in black for graveyard count, but it's not a rat and deals damage for all creature cards when another dies.
5. No direct functional equivalent exists with all these criteria. The closest in black:

  • Gurmag Swiftwing (not equivalent — just a black Rat)
  • Sling-Gang Lieutenant (creates rats, but doesn’t count graveyard or ETB damage)


Reason: Nearly all black Rat creatures that care about graveyard size either exile, reanimate, or buff, but don’t deal ETB damage based on that count. If you want a similar ETB damage with graveyard synergies (not restricted to Rats), try Silumgar Butcher or Shriekmaw, but their effects are not the same.

Summary: Only Ossuary Rats meets all your criteria exactly. Closest partial equivalents exist, but none are full matches.

    Rules

  • Colorless and generic mana symbols ({C}, {0}, {1}, {2}, {X}, and so on) in mana costs of permanents you control don't count toward your devotion to any color.
  • Hybrid mana symbols, monocolored hybrid mana symbols, and Phyrexian mana symbols do count toward your devotion to their color(s).
  • If an activated ability or triggered ability has an effect that depends on your devotion to a color, you count the number of mana symbols of that color among the mana costs of permanents you control as the ability resolves. The permanent with that ability will be counted if it's still on the battlefield at that time.
  • If you put an Aura on an opponent's permanent, you still control the Aura, and mana symbols in its mana cost count towards your devotion.
  • Mana symbols in the text boxes of permanents you control don't count toward your devotion to any color.
  • The amount of life you gain is the total amount of life lost, not simply the value of X.

    Evoke Fear

    Rules

  • If you pay the evoke cost, you can have Shriekmaw's own triggered ability resolve before the evoke triggered ability. You can cast spells after that ability resolves but before you have to sacrifice Shriekmaw.
  • To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you're paying (such as an evoke cost), add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The mana value of the spell is determined by only its mana cost, no matter what the total cost to cast that spell was.

    Exploit

    Rules

  • A creature with exploit “exploits a creature” when the controller of the exploit ability sacrifices a creature as that ability resolves.
  • If the creature with exploit isn’t on the battlefield as the exploit ability resolves, you won’t get any bonus from the creature with exploit, even if you sacrifice a creature. Because the creature with exploit isn’t on the battlefield, its other triggered ability won’t trigger.
  • You can sacrifice the creature with exploit if it’s still on the battlefield. This will cause its other ability to trigger.
  • You can’t sacrifice more than one creature to any one exploit ability.
  • You choose whether to sacrifice a creature and which creature to sacrifice as the exploit ability resolves.
