"Find me cards equivalent to: Blightbeetle"

Equivalent cards to Blightbeetle (Black, anti-counters, or protection from green):
1. Plague Engineer — Creature — Carrier; color: B; gives creatures of chosen type -1/-1 (anti-counter/tribal hate).
2. Murderous Rider — Creature — Zombie Knight; color: B; destroys a creature or planeswalker (general removal, not counters).
3. Ashiok, Dream Render — Not a creature, but mono-black and opponents can't search libraries and exiles graveyards (anti-strategy).

Closest in function:

  • Blightbeetle is unique for being a black creature with protection from green and stopping +1/+1 counters specifically. There are no exact matches, but Plague Engineer is closest for punishing creatures your opponents control.


Reason: Black rarely gets protection from green or exact counter hate in a single creature. Most similar effects are in other colors or via noncreature cards.

    Rules

  • Effects that instruct your opponents to reveal or look at cards from the top of their libraries will still work. Only effects that use the word “search” are affected.
  • If Ashiok’s last ability targets an opponent, the cards put into their graveyard will be among the cards exiled by the ability. No player may take any actions between the time the cards are put into a graveyard and the time your opponents’ graveyards are all exiled.
  • If an effect says “Search your library . . . then shuffle your library,” your opponents shuffle their libraries even though they can’t search.
  • If an effect says “You may search your library . . . If you do, shuffle your library” or “You may search your library . . . then shuffle your library,” your opponents can’t choose to search, so they won’t shuffle.
  • Spells and abilities your opponents control may cause other players to search their libraries, and spells and abilities you control may cause your opponents to search their libraries.

    Rules

  • Blightbeetle doesn’t remove any +1/+1 counters already on creatures your opponents control.
  • Creatures your opponents control won’t receive +1/+1 counters as they enter the battlefield.
  • If a replacement effect allows a player to modify or replace an event by putting +1/+1 counters on a creature affected by Blightbeetle, that player may apply that replacement effect, but they won’t get counters. If the original event is entirely replaced (such as by applying Vigor’s replacement effect), the entire original event simply doesn’t happen.
  • If the cost of an ability or an additional cost of a spell requires putting +1/+1 counters on a creature affected by Blightbeetle, that cost can’t be paid. If a resolving spell or ability says that a player may put +1/+1 counters on that creature, that player can’t choose to do so.
