"Find me cards equivalent to: Stridehangar Automaton"

Equivalent cards in colorless with similar effects:
1. Hangarback Walker: Makes Thopters when it dies or is sacrificed.
2. Efficient Construction: Not a creature, but creates Thopters when you cast artifacts.
3. Sai, Master Thopterist: Mostly blue, gives Thopter support, but not colorless like Stridehangar Automaton.

Stridehangar Automaton is unique for giving an anthem (+1/+1) and bonus Thopters in pure colorless. Most similar cards add just one of these effects, so there’s no exact match in colorless.

    Rules

  • If enough -1/-1 counters are put on Hangarback Walker at the same time to make its toughness 0 or less, the number of +1/+1 counters on it before it got any -1/-1 counters will be used to determine how many Thopter tokens you get. For example, if there are three +1/+1 counters on Hangarback Walker and it gets four -1/-1 counters, you'll get three Thopter tokens. That's because Hangarback Walker's triggered ability checks the creature's existence just before it leaves the battlefield, and it still has all those counters on it at that point.
  • The value of each X in Hangarback Walker's mana cost must be equal. For example, if X is 2, you'll pay {4} to cast Hangarback Walker and it will enter the battlefield with two +1/+1 counters on it.

    Rules

  • If an effect changes under whose control a token would be created, that effect applies before this creature’s effect applies. If an effect changes under whose control a token would enter the battlefield, that effect applies after this creature’s effect is able to be applied.
  • If another effect modifies which or how many tokens you create, you choose the order to apply those effects. For example, if you control this creature and Anointed Procession (“If an effect would create one or more tokens under your control, it creates twice that many of those tokens instead.”), each time you create tokens, you can choose to apply Anointed Procession’s effect to double those tokens first, then apply this creature’s effect to create an additional Thopter token. Or you can choose to apply this creature’s effect first followed by Anointed Procession’s effect, allowing you to create double the original tokens plus two additional Thopter tokens.
  • If you copy a permanent spell, that copy becomes a token on the battlefield, but that’s not the same as creating a token. You won’t get an additional Thopter token that way.
  • The additional Thopter token won’t have any abilities the other tokens were created with. Anything else specified in the effect creating the token (such as tapped, attacking, or “Exile that token at end of combat”) applies to both the original tokens and the Thopter. Similarly, if the effect that creates the token has an additional effect that gives the token an ability, such as “That token gains haste,” that effect will also apply to the Thopter.
  • You don’t need to control the spell or ability that creates the tokens, but the tokens do need to be created under your control.

    Thopters you control get +1/+1. If one or more artifact tokens would be created under your control, those tokens plus an additional 1/1 colorless Thopter artifact creature token with flying are created instead.
