AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Strongarm Thug

Equivalent cards to Strongarm Thug (black, with similar reveal the top card and act on it or forced discard effects in black):

  • Rummaging Goblin (not black, but similar ability in red)
  • Specter's Shroud (equipment, forces discard, black-aligned)
  • Ravenous Rats (makes opponent discard a card, black)
  • Burglar Rat (same as above)
  • Nezumi Cutthroat (black, discard pressure)
  • Rotting Rats (ETB, both players discard, black)


Reason: These cards force discard, create hand advantage, or interact with the top of a player's library in black, matching the disruptive aspect of Strongarm Thug. There isn't a perfect functional reprint, but these are close in effect and color.
