"Find me cards equivalent to: Lim-Dûl the Necromancer"

Equivalent cards to Lim-Dûl the Necromancer (Black, related to stealing dead opponents’ creatures):

  • Gisa and Geralf (lets you cast Zombies from your graveyard, black/blue)
  • The Scarab God (exiles creatures from any graveyard to make Zombies, black/blue)
  • Grave Betrayal (enchantment, not a creature, but returns opponent’s creatures as Zombies when they die)
  • Necroskitter (if a creature with -1/-1 counter dies, return it under your control, black)

None match the exact legend, but all let you reanimate/stabilize opponent’s dead creatures similarly. Lim-Dûl the Necromancer remains the most direct option.

  • If a Zombie card is put into your graveyard during your main phase and the stack is empty, you have a chance to cast it before any player may attempt to remove that card from your graveyard.
  • If multiple effects allow you to cast a Zombie creature spell from your graveyard, such as those of Gisa and Geralf and Karador, Ghost Chieftain, you must announce which permission you’re using as you begin to cast the spell.
  • If you cast one Zombie creature spell from your graveyard and then have a new Gisa and Geralf come under your control in the same turn, you may cast another Zombie creature spell from your graveyard that turn.
  • Once you begin to cast the Zombie spell, losing control of Gisa and Geralf won’t affect the spell.
  • You must follow the normal timing permissions and restrictions of the Zombie spell you cast from your graveyard.
  • You must pay the costs to cast that Zombie spell. If it has an alternative cost, you may cast it for that cost instead.

  • Each creature you don't control that dies causes a delayed triggered ability to trigger at the beginning of the next end step. If there are multiple such abilities, you can put them on the stack in any order. The creatures will return to the battlefield one at a time as each ability resolves. The last ability you put on the stack will be the first one to resolve.
  • Grave Betrayal doesn't overwrite any previous colors or types. Rather, it adds another color and another creature type.
  • If a creature you don't control dies during the end step, that creature won't return to the battlefield until the beginning of the next end step.
  • If the creature card leaves the graveyard before the delayed triggered ability resolves, it won't return to the battlefield. This is also true if the card leaves the graveyard and returns to the graveyard before that ability resolves.
  • If the creature is normally colorless, it will simply be black. It won't be both black and colorless.
  • In a multiplayer game, if more than one player controls a Grave Betrayal and a creature controlled by none of those players dies, each Grave Betrayal will create a delayed triggered ability at the beginning of the next end step. The first such ability to resolve will return the creature. Usually, this will be one controlled by the player furthest from the active player in turn order.
  • The phrase "with an additional +1/+1 counter on it" means that the creature enters with one more +1/+1 counter than it would normally enter with. It doesn't keep any counters it had on it when it died.

  • If this creature dies but leaves your graveyard before the next end step, it will remain in its new zone.
  • The “next end step” refers to the next end step that occurs, not the end step of the next turn. If this creature dies before a turn's end step (for example, during combat), it will be returned to its owner's hand at the beginning of that turn's end step.
  • In a Two-Headed Giant game, The Scarab God's first ability causes the opposing team to lose life equal to twice the number of Zombies you control, although you scry only equal to the number of Zombies you control.
  • The number of Zombies you control is counted as The Scarab God's first ability resolves. Players can try to change that number in response to the ability (perhaps by activating its second ability).
