AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Nest of Scarabs

Equivalent cards to Nest of Scarabs (black) that create tokens from -1/-1 counters or similar counters:

  • Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons (creates snakes when you put -1/-1 counters on creatures)
  • Cradle of the Accursed (creates a token but not directly from counters, still color appropriate)
  • Blowfly Infestation (creates insect tokens from non-token creature deaths with -1/-1 counters)


Reason: Few black cards directly equate -1/-1 counters to tokens, Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons is the closest functional parallel.
