AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Blood Clock

Equivalent cards to Blood Clock (Black artifact with player life/resource trade-offs):
1. Desecration Elemental — Forces sacrifice of a creature.
2. No Mercy — Deters attacking by killing creatures.
3. Polluted Bonds — Opponents lose life for playing lands.
4. Sulfuric Vortex (Red) — Punishes players each turn with life loss.


Reason: All these cards pressure life totals or resources each turn, affecting all players. Only Blood Clock gives a sacrifice or payment choice, but these simulate similar incremental drain or hard choices.
