"Find me cards equivalent to: Baron Strucker, HYDRA Overlord"

Equivalent cards to Baron Strucker, HYDRA Overlord in black (B) that reduce spell costs or have similar synergy (card draw, +1/+1 counters, or spell type synergy):
1. Heartless Summoning

  • Creature spells cost {2} less to cast (but creatures get -1/-1).
  • Reduces casting cost, not limited to Villains.
    2. K'rrik, Son of Yawgmoth
  • Lets you pay life for black mana on any black spell.
  • Makes black spells easier to cast.
    3. Daring Thief
  • Connive mechanic (draw/discard) is less common in mono-black, but Daring Thief can mimic some card draw and discard synergy.
    4. Gonti, Lord of Luxury
  • Not cost reduction, but interacts with card advantage and is a black legendary creature.

There are no mono-black creatures that combine cost reduction for a specific type with connive, so Baron Strucker, HYDRA Overlord is quite unique. Most similar black (B) synergy is with cost reduction, discard/draw, or +1/+1 counter mechanics.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Rules

  • Although the permanent you control can't be a land, the other target can, provided it shares a card type with the first target. For example, you could target an artifact you control and an artifact land controlled by an opponent.
  • Gaining control of an Aura or Equipment doesn't cause it to move, though gaining control of an Equipment will allow you to activate its equip ability to attach it to a creature you control later.
  • If an inspired ability triggers during your untap step, the ability will be put on the stack at the beginning of your upkeep. If the ability creates one or more token creatures, those creatures won't be able to attack that turn (unless they gain haste).
  • If another spell or ability allows you to change the targets of the ability (or perhaps copy it and choose new targets for the copy), you can change the targets only such that the final set of targets is still legal. For example, if the ability targets a creature you control and a creature an opponent controls, you couldn't change just the second target to a noncreature permanent controlled by that player. You could, however, change just the second target to a creature controlled by a different opponent. The two new targets can share a different card type than the two original targets did.
  • If the full exchange can't happen, perhaps because one of the targets is illegal as the inspired ability tries to resolve, then nothing happens. No permanents change controllers.
  • If the inspired ability includes an optional cost, you decide whether to pay that cost as the ability resolves. You can do this even if the creature leaves the battlefield in response to the ability.
  • Inspired abilities don't trigger when the creature enters the battlefield.
  • Inspired abilities trigger no matter how the creature becomes untapped: by the turn-based action at the beginning of the untap step or by a spell or ability.
  • The exchange of control lasts indefinitely. It doesn't expire when Daring Thief leaves the battlefield.
  • The relevant card types (that is, the ones a nonland permanent can have) are artifact, battle, creature, enchantment, kindred, and planeswalker.

    Inspired — Whenever this creature becomes untapped, you may exchange control of target nonland permanent you control and target permanent an opponent controls that shares a card type with it.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Deathtouch

    Rules

  • An effect that instructs you to "cast" a card doesn't allow you to play lands.
  • Casting the card causes it to leave exile. You can't cast it multiple times.
  • Gonti doesn't change when you can cast the exiled card. For example, if you exile a creature card without flash, you can cast it only during your main phase when the stack is empty.
  • If you leave the game, the card remains exiled face down indefinitely. No player may look at it.
  • You may look at and cast that card (and spend mana as though it were mana of any type to do so) even if Gonti leaves the battlefield. If another player gains control of Gonti, that player can't look at or cast the card, and you still can.
  • You pay the costs for the exiled card if you cast it. You may pay alternative costs such as emerge rather than the card's mana cost.
  • The six types of mana are white, blue, black, red, green, and colorless. Snow mana is not a type of mana. Gonti, Lord of Luxury won't let you pay a snow cost using mana produced by a nonsnow source.

    Deathtouch When Gonti enters, look at the top four cards of target opponent's library, exile one of them face down, then put the rest on the bottom of that library in a random order. You may cast that card for as long as it remains exiled, and mana of any type can be spent to cast that spell.

    Lifelink

    Rules

  • If a cost contains a mana symbol that may be paid in multiple ways, such as {B/R}, {B/P}, or {2/B}, you choose how you'll pay it before you do so. If you choose to pay {B} this way, K'rrik's ability allows you to pay life rather than pay that mana.
  • K'rrik's ability doesn't modify or reduce costs you pay. It changes only how you may pay those costs.
  • K'rrik's last ability resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger. It resolves even if that spell is countered.
  • You can't pay 2 life to pay for generic mana in costs you pay, even if an effect says that you must spend black mana to pay that generic mana.
  • A Phyrexian mana symbol contributes 1 toward the mana value of a card, even if life is paid for it. Specifically, K'rrik's mana value is always 7.
  • K'rrik's ability lets you pay 2 life for {B} in any cost you pay, including the mana costs of spells, activation costs, and even costs for special actions (such as morph). Any time you pay mana, that's a cost.
