"Find me cards equivalent to: Lab Rats"

Equivalent cards to Lab Rats (Black, Sorcery, token creation, buyback, or similar):
1. Lab Rats — Create a 1/1 black Rat with buyback.
2. Slimefoot's Survey — Not equivalent (it doesn't create tokens or buyback).
3. Army of the Damned — Creates black Zombie tokens, but is higher cost and no buyback.
4. Endless Ranks of the Dead — Creates black Zombie tokens but is not a sorcery.
5. Cabal Therapy — Not equivalent (no token creation).
6. Hidden Stockpile — Makes tokens, but is an enchantment.
7. Afterlife — Instant, makes 1/1 black Spirit tokens.
8. Echoing Decay — Not equivalent.

Closest in black with similarity:

  • Lab Rats
  • Grave Titan (makes 2/2 Zombies when attacking, not a sorcery)
  • Dark Salvation (makes Zombie tokens, conditional)

Short answer:
No direct black sorcery with buyback that makes a 1/1 token except Lab Rats. Closest alternatives make similar tokens but not with buyback or not on a sorcery.


Reason:
Buyback on black token-making sorceries is incredibly rare—Lab Rats is unique.

    Flashback

    Rules

  • "Flashback [cost]" means "You may cast this card from your graveyard by paying [cost] rather than paying its mana cost" and "If the flashback cost was paid, exile this card instead of putting it anywhere else any time it would leave the stack."
  • A spell cast using flashback will always be exiled afterward, whether it resolves, is countered, or leaves the stack in some other way.
  • If a card with flashback is put into your graveyard during your turn, you can cast it if it's legal to do so before any other player can take any actions.
  • To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost (such as a flashback cost) you're paying, add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The mana value of the spell is determined only by its mana cost, no matter what the total cost to cast the spell was.
  • You can cast a spell using flashback even if it was somehow put into your graveyard without having been cast.
  • You must still follow any timing restrictions and permissions, including those based on the card's type. For instance, you can cast a sorcery using flashback only when you could normally cast a sorcery.

  • If a permanent you controlled didn't leave the battlefield before your end step begins, Hidden Stockpile's first ability doesn't trigger at all. The permanent may have left before Hidden Stockpile entered the battlefield, however.
  • Revolt abilities check only whether a permanent you controlled left the battlefield this turn or not. They don't apply multiple times if more than one permanent you controlled left the battlefield. They don't check whether the permanent that left the battlefield is still in the zone it moved to.
  • Revolt abilities don't care why the permanent left the battlefield, who caused it to move, or where it moved to. They're equally satisfied by an artifact you sacrificed to pay a cost, a creature you controlled that was destroyed by Cast Down, or an enchantment you returned to your hand with Cyclonic Rift.
  • Tokens that leave the battlefield will satisfy a revolt ability.
