"Find me cards equivalent to: Black Mage's Rod"

Equivalent cards to Black Mage's Rod (mono-black, Artifact — Equipment, focuses on noncreature spells, pings opponents) include:
1. Ghirapur Aether Grid

  • Lets you ping opponents, synergy with artifacts.
    2. Nettlecyst
  • Equipment, grants boost, creates a token on ETB.
    3. Viridian Longbow
  • Equipment, grants tapping for 1 damage.
    4. Gorgon's Head
  • Equipment, gives deathtouch, but no ping, still mono-black utility equipment.
    5. Nighteyes the Desecrator
  • Equipment like Nighteyes Scrounger, triggers graveyard abilities with a black theme.

No direct equivalent exists with all effects (job select, +1/+0, pings per noncreature spell, Wizard typing), but these come closest within mono-black artifacts/equipment. Black Mage's Rod is the most unique among them.

    Rules

  • If the Hero token is destroyed, the Equipment stays on the battlefield.
  • If the job select ability causes two Hero tokens to be created (due to an effect such as that of Doubling Season), the Equipment becomes attached to only one of them.
  • The Hero token enters as a 1/1 creature, then the Equipment becomes attached to it. Abilities that trigger when a creature enters the battlefield see that a 1/1 creature entered the battlefield.
  • The granted ability resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger. It resolves even if that spell is countered or otherwise leaves the stack.
  • You may pay the Equipment's equip cost as normal to move it from the Hero token to another creature you control.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Equip

    Rules

  • If a permanent you control is both an artifact and an enchantment, count it only once when determining the bonus from an equipped Nettlecyst.
  • If the Phyrexian Germ token is destroyed, the Equipment remains on the battlefield as with any other Equipment.
  • 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. Once the Phyrexian 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 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.
