"Find me cards equivalent to: Runechanter's Pike"

Here are some colorless Artifact — Equipment cards similar to Runechanter's Pike that boost based on graveyard contents or that give first strike:
1. Bonehoard — Gets +X/+X, where X is the number of creature cards in all graveyards. Equip {2}.
2. Cranial Plating — Gets +1/+0 for each artifact you control. Equip {1} or {B}{B}.
3. Nettlecyst — Gets +1/+1 for each artifact and/or enchantment you control. Equip {2}.
4. Runechanter's Pike — Included for reference.


Reason: All are colorless Equipment that scale power/toughness with a graveyard or board state mechanic, close to Runechanter's Pike. None give first strike except Runechanter's Pike, but the scaling stat buff is the closest match.

    Rules

  • Although creature tokens go to the graveyard before ceasing to exist, they never count as creature cards and won't increase the bonus granted by Bonehoard, however briefly.
  • If lethal damage is dealt simultaneously to the equipped creature and another creature, both creatures are put into the graveyard at the same time. The equipped creature won't get an additional bonus from the other creature.
  • If there are no creature cards in any graveyard when Bonehoard's living weapon ability resolves, the Germ will be 0/0 and put into its owner's graveyard.
  • The value of X is calculated continuously as the number of creature cards in graveyards changes.
  • If the Germ token is destroyed, the Equipment remains on the battlefield as with any other Equipment.
  • If the living weapon trigger causes two Germs to be created (due to an effect such as that of Doubling Season), the Equipment becomes attached to one of them. The other will be put into your graveyard and subsequently cease to exist, unless another effect raises its toughness above 0.
  • Like other Equipment, each Equipment with living weapon has an equip cost. You can pay this cost to attach an Equipment to another creature you control. Once the Germ token is no longer equipped, it will be put into your graveyard and subsequently cease to exist, unless another effect raises its toughness above 0.
  • The Germ token enters the battlefield as a 0/0 creature and the Equipment becomes attached to it before state-based actions would cause the token to die. Abilities that trigger as the token enters the battlefield see that a 0/0 creature entered the battlefield.

  • Cranial Plating is counted by its own ability, so it gives at least +1/+0.
  • Cranial Plating's first activated ability is similar to an equip ability, but it's not an equip ability. Most importantly, it can be activated any time you could cast an instant, even during another player's turn.

  • If the living weapon trigger causes two Phyrexian Germs to be created (due to an effect such as that of Doubling Season), the Equipment becomes attached to one of them. The other will be put into your graveyard and subsequently cease to exist, unless another effect raises its toughness above 0.
  • Like other Equipment, each Equipment with living weapon has an equip cost. You can pay this cost to attach an Equipment to another creature you control.

  • The Phyrexian Germ token enters the battlefield as a 0/0 creature and the Equipment becomes attached to it before state-based actions would cause the token to die. Abilities that trigger as the token enters the battlefield see that a 0/0 creature entered the battlefield.
  • The living weapon ability has been updated so that the triggered ability creates Phyrexian Germ tokens rather than Germ tokens. This update applies to all cards with living weapon.
