"Find me cards equivalent to: Death's Shadow"

Equivalent cards to Death's Shadow (Creature — Avatar, Black, that care about your life total):
1. Necrologia (not a creature, but interacts with life for card draw)
2. Souls of the Faultless (also a black creature, interacts with life, not exactly the same ability)
3. Phyrexian Dreadnought (costs you something for big power, not directly about life total)
4. Demon of Death's Gate (pays life for creature, black, impactful for life interaction)

Closest equivalent is Death's Shadow itself; there is not a direct black creature equivalent that scales precisely the same way with your life total—it's unique in its interaction.

    Trample

    Rules

  • Phasing in does not trigger "enters" abilities, so you don't have to sacrifice again if it phases in.
  • The sacrifices are simultaneous, not one at a time.
  • If the Dreadnought is no longer on the battlefield when the triggered ability resolves, you may still choose either option.
  • Reverted to its original wording, this now has an "enters" triggered ability. During resolution of the triggered ability, you choose one option or the other.
  • If you are unable to sacrifice 12 power worth of creatures, then you cannot choose that option; in that case, you must sacrifice Phyrexian Dreadnought.
