"Find me cards equivalent to: Chronomancer"

Here are some black artifact creatures with similar effects to Chronomancer:

1. Baleful Strix

  • Artifact Creature — Bird
  • Flying, draws a card on ETB.
  • Blue/Black identity, so not strictly mono-black, but similar role.
    2. Myr Retriever
  • Artifact Creature — Myr
  • When it dies, return another artifact card from your graveyard to your hand.
  • Mono-colorless, but fits artifact recursion/draw utility.
    3. Phyrexian Rager
  • Creature — Phyrexian Horror
  • When it ETBs, you draw a card and lose 1 life.
  • Mono-black, good for draw, though not artifact or flying.
    4. Filigree Attendant
  • Artifact Creature — Construct
  • Not black, but artifact with flying and utility in artifact decks.
    5. Solemn Simulacrum
  • Artifact Creature — Golem
  • Draws a card when it dies.
  • Colorless, but very equivalent for artifact draw.

Closest Black Artifact Creature with a similar activated draw:
Disciple of Bolas (draws cards by sacrificing creatures, mono-black, but not an artifact).

No exact mono-black artifact creature with flying, a sacrifice-to-draw mechanic, and Unearth exists other than Chronomancer itself, but the above fill similar roles in black/artifact decks.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Flying Unearth

    Rules

  • Activating a permanent card's unearth ability isn't the same as casting it as a spell. The unearth ability is put on the stack, but the card is not. Spells and abilities that interact with activated abilities (such as Stifle) will interact with unearth, but spells and abilities that interact with spells (such as Cancel) will not.
  • At the beginning of the end step, a permanent returned to the battlefield with unearth is exiled. This is a delayed triggered ability, and it can be countered by effects that counter triggered abilities. If the ability is countered, the permanent will stay on the battlefield and the delayed trigger won't trigger again. However, the replacement effect will still exile it if it eventually leaves the battlefield.
  • If a permanent returned to the battlefield by an unearth ability would leave it for any reason, it's exiled instead—unless the spell or ability that's causing it to leave the battlefield is actually trying to exile it. In that case, the spell or ability succeeds at exiling the permanent. If the spell or ability later returns the card to the battlefield, it will return as a new object with no relation to its previous existence. The unearth effect will no longer apply to it.
  • If you activate a card's unearth ability but that card is removed from your graveyard before the ability resolves, that unearth ability will resolve and do nothing.
  • Unearth grants haste to the permanent that's returned to the battlefield. However, neither of the "exile" abilities is granted to that permanent. If that creature loses all its abilities, it will still be exiled at the beginning of the end step, and if it would leave the battlefield, it is still exiled instead.
