"Find me cards equivalent to: Gixian Skullflayer"

Here are cards similar to Gixian Skullflayer:
1. Nighthowler — Creature, black, interacts with creatures in your graveyard (power/toughness equal to number of creature cards in graveyard).
2. Diregraf Captain — Black creature, Zombie, not exactly the same, but boosts based on graveyard interactions.
3. Falkenrath Noble — Sacrifice and graveyard related triggers.


Reason: Few black creatures directly put +1/+1 counters based on graveyard creatures, but several, like Nighthowler, scale with graveyard size. Gixian Skullflayer is unique due to its upkeep trigger and counter placement.

    Bestow

    Rules

  • Auras attached to a creature don't become tapped when the creature becomes tapped. Except in some rare cases, an Aura with bestow remains untapped when it becomes unattached and becomes a creature.
  • If a permanent with bestow enters the battlefield by any method other than being cast, it will be an enchantment creature. You can't choose to pay the bestow cost and have it become an Aura.
  • Nighthowler's last ability functions only from the battlefield. In other zones, Nighthowler is a 0/0 enchantment creature.
  • On the stack, a spell with bestow is either a creature spell or an Aura spell. It's never both, although it's an enchantment spell in either case.
  • Unlike other Aura spells, an Aura spell with bestow isn't countered if its target is illegal as it begins to resolve. Rather, the effect making it an Aura spell ends, it loses enchant creature, it returns to being an enchantment creature spell, and it resolves and enters the battlefield as an enchantment creature.
  • Unlike other Auras, an Aura with bestow isn't put into its owner's graveyard if it becomes unattached. Rather, the effect making it an Aura ends, it loses enchant creature, and it remains on the battlefield as an enchantment creature. It can attack (and its {T} abilities can be activated, if it has any) on the turn it becomes unattached if it's been under your control continuously, even as an Aura, since your most recent turn began.

    Bestow (If you cast this card for its bestow cost, it's an Aura spell with enchant creature. It becomes a creature again if it's not attached.) This creature and enchanted creature each get +X/+X, where X is the number of creature cards in all graveyards.
