"Find me cards equivalent to: Simian Simulacrum"

Equivalent cards to Simian Simulacrum (colorless, Artifact Creature, +1/+1 counters, some sort of recursion):
1. Steel Overseer – Artifact Creature, colorless, puts +1/+1 counters on creatures, but doesn't have recursion.
2. Hangarback Walker – Artifact Creature, colorless, enters with +1/+1 counters, dies for tokens, no recursion.
3. Wurmcoil Engine – Artifact Creature, colorless, has recursion by splitting on death, but no +1/+1 counters.
4. Phyrexian Triniform – Artifact Creature, colorless, has Unearth, but no +1/+1 counter interaction.
5. Scrapheap Scrounger – Artifact Creature, colorless, recursion from graveyard, but no +1/+1 counters.

Closest in spirit: Simian Simulacrum, Phyrexian Triniform (Unearth), Steel Overseer (+1/+1 counters).


Reason: Colorless artifact creatures with +1/+1 counter synergies and built-in recursion/return mechanics are rare; no cards fully match all features.

    Rules

  • If enough -1/-1 counters are put on Hangarback Walker at the same time to make its toughness 0 or less, the number of +1/+1 counters on it before it got any -1/-1 counters will be used to determine how many Thopter tokens you get. For example, if there are three +1/+1 counters on Hangarback Walker and it gets four -1/-1 counters, you'll get three Thopter tokens. That's because Hangarback Walker's triggered ability checks the creature's existence just before it leaves the battlefield, and it still has all those counters on it at that point.
  • The value of each X in Hangarback Walker's mana cost must be equal. For example, if X is 2, you'll pay {4} to cast Hangarback Walker and it will enter the battlefield with two +1/+1 counters on it.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Encore

    Rules

  • Each token must attack the appropriate player if able.
  • Exiling the card with encore is a cost to activate the ability. Once you announce that you're activating it, no player may take actions until you've finished. They can't try to remove the card from your graveyard to stop you from paying the cost.
  • If one of the tokens can't attack for any reason (such as being tapped), then it doesn't attack. If there's a cost associated with having it attack, you aren't forced to pay that cost, so it doesn't have to attack in that case either.
  • If one of the tokens somehow is under another player's control as the delayed triggered ability resolves, you can't sacrifice that token. It remains on the battlefield indefinitely, even if you regain control of it later.
  • Opponents who have left the game aren't counted when determining how many tokens to create.
  • The tokens copy only what's on the original card. Effects that modified that creature when it was previously on the battlefield won't be copied.
  • If an effect stops a token from attacking a specific player, that token can attack any player, planeswalker, or battle, or not attack at all. If the effect stops the token from attacking a specific player unless a cost is paid, you don't have to pay that cost unless you want to attack that player.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Unearth

    Rules

  • Activating a card's unearth ability isn't the same as casting that card. The unearth ability is put on the stack, but the card is not. Spells and abilities that interact with activated abilities (such as Defabricate's second mode) will interact with unearth, but spells and abilities that interact with spells (such as Scatter Ray) will not.
  • At the beginning of the next end step, a permanent returned to the battlefield with unearth is exiled. This is a delayed triggered ability, and it can be countered by effects such as Defabricate that counter triggered abilities. If the ability is countered, the permanent will stay on the battlefield and the delayed triggered ability won't trigger again. However, the replacement effect will still exile the permanent if it eventually leaves the battlefield.
  • If a permanent returned to the battlefield with unearth would leave the battlefield for any reason, it's exiled instead—unless the spell or ability that's causing the permanent to leave the battlefield is actually trying to exile it! In that case, it succeeds at exiling it. If that spell or ability later returns the card to the battlefield (as Static Net might, for example), the permanent card will return to the battlefield as a new object with no relation to its previous existence. The unearth effects will no longer apply to it.
  • If you activate a card's unearth ability but that card is removed from your graveyard before the ability resolves, that unearth ability will do nothing as it resolves.
  • Unearth grants haste to the permanent that's returned to the battlefield (even if it's not a creature card). However, neither of the "exile" abilities is granted to that permanent. If that permanent loses all its abilities, it will still be exiled at the beginning of the next end step, and if it would leave the battlefield, it is still exiled instead.
