"Find me cards equivalent to: Chronomancer"

Cards equivalent to Chronomancer (black artifact creatures that can draw cards by sacrificing artifacts and/or have Unearth):
1. Disciple of the Vault (B)
Whenever an artifact is put into a graveyard, opponent loses 1 life. Not card draw, but synergy.
2. Myr Retriever (2)
Not black, but recurs artifacts when it dies.
3. Phyrexian Rager (2B)
Draws a card when it enters, but not artifact-based.
4. Stern Lesson (2B)
Artifact synergy and card draw, but not a creature.

Closest direct equivalent with Unearth in black:
5. Custodian Lich (3BB)
Not an artifact, but has Unearth and enters triggers.

There are few direct equivalents matching all main features (black, artifact creature, card draw by artifact sacrifice, Unearth). Chronomancer is unique, but cards above provide parts of its function.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Flying Unearth

    Rules

  • Activating a permanent card's unearth ability isn't the same as casting it as a spell. The unearth ability is put on the stack, but the card is not. Spells and abilities that interact with activated abilities (such as Stifle) will interact with unearth, but spells and abilities that interact with spells (such as Cancel) will not.
  • At the beginning of the end step, a permanent returned to the battlefield with unearth is exiled. This is a delayed triggered ability, and it can be countered by effects that counter triggered abilities. If the ability is countered, the permanent will stay on the battlefield and the delayed trigger won't trigger again. However, the replacement effect will still exile it if it eventually leaves the battlefield.
  • If a permanent returned to the battlefield by an unearth ability would leave it for any reason, it's exiled instead—unless the spell or ability that's causing it to leave the battlefield is actually trying to exile it. In that case, the spell or ability succeeds at exiling the permanent. If the spell or ability later returns the card to the battlefield, it will return as a new object with no relation to its previous existence. The unearth effect will no longer apply to it.
  • If you activate a card's unearth ability but that card is removed from your graveyard before the ability resolves, that unearth ability will resolve and do nothing.
  • Unearth grants haste to the permanent that's returned to the battlefield. However, neither of the "exile" abilities is granted to that permanent. If that creature loses all its abilities, it will still be exiled at the beginning of the end step, and if it would leave the battlefield, it is still exiled instead.

    Powerstone

    Rules

  • Although all the cards in The Brothers' War that create Powerstone tokens create a tapped Powerstone token, entering the battlefield tapped isn't part of the token's definition. Notably, if you create a token that is a copy of a Powerstone token, the token copy won't enter the battlefield tapped.
  • Powerstone tokens are a kind of predefined token. Each one has the artifact subtype "Powerstone" and the ability "{T}: Add {C}. This mana can't be spent to cast a nonartifact spell."
  • You can use the {C} added by a Powerstone token on anything that isn't a nonartifact spell. This includes paying costs to activate abilities of both artifact and nonartifact permanents, paying ward costs, and so on.
