"Find me cards equivalent to: Touch of Darkness"

Here are cards similar to Touch of Darkness, matching type (Instant), color (Black), and a similar effect:
1. Distort Reality – Instant, black, changes a creature's color (but not only to black, see Gatherer ruling).
2. Mind Bend (typically blue, not black, but closest effect-wise) – color-changing, but not in black.

Note: There are very few black instants that change color exactly like Touch of Darkness. It’s quite unique, and Distort Reality is the only close black option, though it is not an exact match. Touch of Darkness remains the primary example with this effect in black instants.

  • It only changes what is printed on the card (or set on a token when it was created or set by a copy effect). It will not change any effects that are on the permanent.
