"Find me cards equivalent to: Nyxathid"

Here are some Nyxathid equivalents (same color, similar hand-size-scaling or hand-size-matters black creatures):
1. Nyxathid
2. Sangromancer — Black, cares about opponent's hand/graveyard.
3. Guul Draz Specter — Black, benefits from opponent having no cards in hand.
4. Shrieking Affliction (not a creature, but similar effect in black for opponent's hand size).
5. Necrogen Mists (again, not a creature, but similar hand size pressure).

There are few black creatures with exactly the same hand-size-scaling mechanic as Nyxathid, but those listed are thematically and mechanically closest.

  • If a spell or ability causes the chosen player to draw cards and then discard cards, Nyxathid's power and toughness changes accordingly as that spell or ability is resolving. For example, if the chosen player has five cards in hand and a spell causes that player to draw two cards then discard two cards, Nyxathid will start out as 2/2, then become 1/1, 0/0, and finally 2/2. This is because cards are always drawn one at a time, but multiple cards may be discarded at once. Although Nyxathid momentarily had 0 toughness while that spell was resolving, it isn't put into its owner's graveyard as a state-based action because state-based actions aren't checked until the spell has finished resolving.
  • In a multiplayer game, if the chosen player leaves the game, Nyxathid's second ability simply won't do anything anymore.
  • Nyxathid tracks the hand size of the chosen player even if that player ceases to be an opponent of its controller. (This could happen if that player gains control of Nyxathid, for example.)
  • Nyxathid's two abilities are linked: The second one refers only to the player chosen by the first one. If another creature becomes a copy of Nyxathid (due to Mirrorweave, for example), the second ability won't do anything because a player was never chosen as a result of the first ability. This is true even if a different ability allowed a player to be chosen as that creature entered.

  • Shrieking Affliction’s ability will trigger only if an opponent begins their upkeep with one or fewer cards in hand. The ability will check the number of cards in that player’s hand again when it tries to resolve. If that player has two or more cards in hand at that time, that player won’t lose life.
