4 Cards Found

AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Syndicate Heavy

Equivalent cards to Syndicate Heavy (a black creature that can be blocked only by creatures with power 2 or greater):

  • Bane Alley Blackguard (same mana cost, black, similar stats, but no blocking restriction)
  • Torgaar, Famine Incarnate (also a black creature with big stats, but different ability)
  • Gifted Aetherborn (2 mana, black, has deathtouch and lifelink, but no restriction on blocking)


Reason: There are few exact equivalents, but these are black creatures at similar cost/power levels. None have exactly the same evasion as Syndicate Heavy.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Extort Investigate

    Rules

  • Clue is an artifact type. Even though it appears on some cards with other permanent types, it's never a creature type, a land type, or anything but an artifact type.
  • If an effect refers to a Clue, it means any Clue artifact, not just a Clue artifact token. For example, you can sacrifice Wrench to pay for Alquist Proft, Master Sleuth's activated ability.
  • If you haven't gained 4 or more life by the time an end step begins, Syndicate Heavy's last ability won't trigger at all.
  • Some abilities trigger "whenever you sacrifice a Clue". Those abilities trigger whenever you sacrifice a Clue for any reason, not just to activate a Clue's activated ability.
  • Some spells and abilities that investigate may require targets. If each target chosen is an illegal target as that spell or ability tries to resolve, it won't resolve. You won't create any Clue tokens.
  • Syndicate Heavy's last ability looks at how much life you've gained in the turn, even if it wasn't on the battlefield when you gained life. It doesn't care if you also lost life, even if you lost more life than you gained.
  • The amount of life you gain from extort is based on the total amount of life lost, not necessarily the number of opponents you have. For example, if your opponent's life total can't change (perhaps because that player controls Platinum Emperion), you won't gain any life.
  • The extort ability doesn't target any player.
  • You can't sacrifice a Clue to pay multiple costs. For example, you can't sacrifice a Clue token to activate its own ability and also to activate Alquist Proft, Master Sleuth's ability.
  • You investigate just once, no matter how much life you've gained past 4.
  • You may pay {W}{B} a maximum of one time for each extort triggered ability. You decide whether to pay when the ability resolves.

    Extort (Whenever you cast a spell, you may pay . If you do, each opponent loses 1 life and you gain that much life.) At the beginning of each end step, if you gained 4 or more life this turn, investigate. (Create a Clue token. It's an artifact with ",Sacrificethis token: Draw a card.")

    Torgaar, Famine Incarnate #108s Legendary Creature — Avatar

    Rules

  • For your life total to become half your starting life total (normally 10, half of 20), you gain or lose the appropriate amount of life. For example, if your life total is 4 when Torgaar's ability resolves targeting you, it will cause you to gain 6 life; alternatively, if your life total is 25 when it resolves, it will cause you to lose 15 life. Other cards that interact with life gain or life loss will interact with this effect accordingly.
  • In a Two-Headed Giant game, Torgaar's ability causes the team's life total to become half the team's starting life total (normally 15, half of 30), but only the target player actually gains or loses life.
  • Torgaar's first ability can't reduce its cost below {B}{B}. You can sacrifice any number of creatures, even if they won't reduce Torgaar's cost any further.

    As an additional cost to cast this spell, you maysacrificeany number of creatures. This spell costs less to cast for each creature sacrificed this way. When Torgaar enters, up to one target player's life total becomes half their starting life total, rounded down.
