"Find me cards equivalent to: Lydia Frye"

Equivalent cards (UB Legendary Creatures that care about unblockability, surveil, or Assassins):
1. Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow — Legendary Creature, Human Ninja, blue/black, focuses on unblockable creatures and card advantage.
2. Etrata, the Silencer — Legendary Creature, Vampire Assassin, blue/black, can't be blocked, with a graveyard-related effect.
3. Mirko Vosk, Mind Drinker — Legendary Creature, Vampire, blue/black, mill ability on combat damage.

  • Etrata's owner shuffles it into their library as the triggered ability resolves, regardless of how many cards are in exile or whether the player loses the game.
  • If Etrata leaves the battlefield while its triggered ability is on the stack, it remains in its new zone and Etrata's owner shuffles their library.
  • If Etrata's ability exiles a token creature, it won't count to determine whether three cards are exiled with hit counters.
  • If the player controls no creatures, Etrata's ability doesn't resolve. Etrata remains on the battlefield and its owner doesn't shuffle their library. The same is true if the target creature is an illegal target when Etrata's ability tries to resolve.
  • In a Commander game, if Etrata is your commander, you may put it into the command zone as its ability resolves. You'll still shuffle your library.

    Lydia Frye can't be blocked by creatures with power 3 or greater. At the beginning of your end step, surveil X, where X is the number of tapped Assassins you control. (Look at the top X cards of your library, then put any number of them into your graveyard and the rest on top of your library in any order.)

    Rules

  • Activating Yuriko's commander ninjutsu ability isn't the same as casting Yuriko as a spell. You won't have to pay the commander tax to activate that ability, and activating that ability won't increase the commander tax to pay later.
  • Although the ninjutsu ability has the creature enter the battlefield attacking, it was never declared as an attacking creature (for the purposes of abilities that trigger whenever a creature attacks, for example).
  • Commander ninjutsu is a variant of ninjutsu that can be activated from the command zone as well as from your hand. Just as with regular ninjutsu, the Ninja enters attacking the player or planeswalker that the returned creature was attacking.
  • If a card in a player's library has {X} in its mana cost, X is considered to be 0.

    Commander ninjutsu (, Return an unblocked attacker you control to hand: Put this card onto the battlefield from your hand or the command zone tapped and attacking.) Whenever a Ninja you control deals combat damage to a player, reveal the top card of your library and put that card into your hand. Each opponent loses life equal to that card's mana value.
