"Find me cards equivalent to: Death of a Thousand Stings"

Here are cards similar to Death of a Thousand Stings, all in black, that drain life and may have graveyard recursion, but note that none are exact in all attributes (instant, Arcane, self-recurring):

Equivalent cards:

  • Syphon Soul — Drains each opponent for 2, but is a sorcery and doesn’t recur.
  • Recover — Sorcery that gains life and returns a creature from graveyard to hand.
  • Marauding Blight-Priest — A creature that drains life on life gain triggers.
  • Crypt Incursion — Instant, gains life equal to exiled creature cards, but no drain or recursion.

Closest to your request is Death of a Thousand Stings, since other black instants with personal graveyard recursion are nearly non-existent.
Reason: Black typically gets sorceries or creatures that drain or recur, but instant speed with a recursive effect is very rare in black.

    Rules

  • Each creature with lifelink dealing combat damage causes a separate life-gaining event. For example, if two creatures you control with lifelink deal combat damage at the same time, Marauding Blight-Priest's ability will trigger twice. However, if a single creature you control with lifelink deals combat damage to multiple creatures, players, planeswalkers, and/or battles at the same time (perhaps because it has trample or was blocked by more than one creature), the ability will trigger only once.
  • If you gain an amount of life "for each" of something or "equal to the number" of something, that life is gained as one event and Marauding Blight-Priest's ability will trigger only once.
  • In a Two-Headed Giant game, life gained by your teammate won't cause Marauding Blight-Priest's ability to trigger, even though it caused your team's life total to increase.
  • Marauding Blight-Priest's ability triggers just once for each life-gaining event, whether it's 1 life from Dazzling Angel or 4 life from Apothecary Stomper.
