"Find me cards equivalent to: Gray Merchant of Asphodel"

Equivalent cards to Gray Merchant of Asphodel (Black, creature, drains life based on black devotion or similar themes):
1. Kokusho, the Evening Star – When it dies, each opponent loses 5 life, you gain that much.
2. Gary, Merchant of Death – (Not a real card, just an alias for Gray Merchant of Asphodel often used for humor; actual equivalents are rare.)
3. Marauding Blight-Priest – Whenever you gain life, each opponent loses 1 life (synergistic but not an ETB).
4. Blood Artist – Each other creature dying, target player loses 1 life, you gain 1 life.
5. Syr Konrad, the Grim – Whenever another creature dies or leaves the graveyard, each opponent loses life.

Closest in effect and color remains Gray Merchant of Asphodel. No other black Zombie creature has the exact same ETB devotion drain, but some synergize with life drain and devotion.

  • Colorless and generic mana symbols ({C}, {0}, {1}, {2}, {X}, and so on) in mana costs of permanents you control don't count toward your devotion to any color.
  • Hybrid mana symbols, monocolored hybrid mana symbols, and Phyrexian mana symbols do count toward your devotion to their color(s).
  • If an activated ability or triggered ability has an effect that depends on your devotion to a color, you count the number of mana symbols of that color among the mana costs of permanents you control as the ability resolves. The permanent with that ability will be counted if it's still on the battlefield at that time.
  • If you put an Aura on an opponent's permanent, you still control the Aura, and mana symbols in its mana cost count towards your devotion.
  • Mana symbols in the text boxes of permanents you control don't count toward your devotion to any color.
  • The amount of life you gain is the total amount of life lost, not simply the value of X.

    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.
