"Find me cards equivalent to: Phylactery Lich"

Equivalent cards to Phylactery Lich (black, indestructible, enters with a counter requirement, and possible sacrifice condition) are very rare. Closest black alternatives are:

  • Darksteel Myr (Artifact Creature, Indestructible, but not black or Zombie)
  • Grave Pact effect on black creatures like Butcher Ghoul (but these just return, not indestructible)
  • Haakon, Stromgald Scourge (Zombie, recursion-based, black, not indestructible)


Reason: There are no direct equivalents in black Zombies with this exact ability set; Phylactery Lich is unique. The best matches have indestructible or similar graveyard-recursion mechanics but with differing triggers or requirements.

    Rules

  • If multiple creatures you control die at the same time, Grave Pact's ability will trigger that many times.
  • If two players each control a Grave Pact and a creature controlled by one of those players dies, a chain reaction happens. First the ability of that player's Grave Pact will trigger, causing each other player to sacrifice a creature. That sacrifice causes the ability of the other player's Grave Pact to trigger, and so on.
  • If you control more than one Grave Pact and a creature you control dies, each of the triggered abilities will trigger. Each other player will sacrifice a creature each time one of those abilities resolves.
  • In a Two-Headed Giant game, when a creature you control dies, Grave Pact's triggered ability will cause each other player, including your teammate, to sacrifice a creature. Grave Pact's ability won't trigger when a creature your teammate controls dies.
  • None of the players are targeted. A player with hexproof would still sacrifice a creature.
  • When the triggered ability resolves, first the player whose turn it is (if it isn't your turn) chooses which creature they will sacrifice, then each other player in turn order does the same, then all chosen creatures are sacrificed at the same time.

  • Haakon can't be cast from your hand. It can't be cast from any zone other than your graveyard, even if an effect such as that of Spelljack or Muse Vessel would otherwise allow you to.
  • While Haakon is in your graveyard, you may cast it. This follows the normal rules and timing for casting a creature spell; the only difference is what zone Haakon is being cast from. The spell goes on the stack. You have to pay Haakon's mana cost and any applicable additional costs. The same applies for Knight cards you cast from your graveyard while Haakon is on the battlefield.

    You may cast this card from your graveyard, but not from anywhere else. As long as Haakon is on the battlefield, you may cast Knight spells from your graveyard. When Haakon dies, you lose 2 life.

    Indestructible

    Rules

  • If Phylactery Lich and an artifact are entering the battlefield under your control at the same time, you can’t put a phylactery counter on that artifact. You must choose an artifact you control that’s already on the battlefield.
  • If you control no artifacts as Phylactery Lich enters the battlefield, its first ability won’t do anything. As soon as it enters the battlefield, its last ability will trigger (unless you control some other permanent with a phylactery counter on it) and you’ll have to sacrifice it.
  • Phylactery Lich’s first ability doesn’t target the artifact. No player may take actions between the time you choose an artifact and the time you put a phylactery counter on it.
  • Phylactery Lich’s last ability checks your permanents for any phylactery counters, not just the specific one that it caused you to put on an artifact. For example, if you control two Phylactery Liches and two different artifacts with phylactery counters, neither Phylactery Lich will be sacrificed if one of those artifacts leaves the battlefield.
  • Phylactery Lich’s last ability is a “state trigger.” Once a state trigger triggers, it won’t trigger again as long as the ability is on the stack. If the ability is countered and the trigger condition is still true, it will immediately trigger again.
