"Find me cards equivalent to: Cruel Deceiver"

Equivalent cards to Cruel Deceiver with similar color (black), type (Creature — Spirit), and similar effects are very limited. The most similar options are:

  • Yamabushi's Storm (checks top card, but red and not a creature)
  • Sinister Augur (1B, Creature — Spirit, lets you look at the top card of your library and sometimes reveals cards, but not the same effect)
  • Magus of the Future (lets you play with top card revealed, but blue)
  • Augury Owl (scry effect; not black or spirit)

Direct equivalents in black, spirit creatures, with library top card manipulation and once-a-turn revealing for a deathtouch-like effect are not currently printed.

Closest (but not equivalent):

  • Oona's Blackguard (B, Spirit Rogue, but affects hand and not the top card)
  • Ravenous Chupacabra (B, destroy effect, but not tied to the top card)

Summary: Cruel Deceiver has a unique effect. No exact black, spirit equivalent exists. The card is unique within its color, tribe, and effect.

    Rules

  • If the top card of your library changes while you're casting a spell, playing a land, or activating an ability, you don't reveal the new top card until you finish doing so. This means that if you cast the top card of your library, you can't look at the next one until you're done paying for that spell; and if you play a land from the top of your library, you can't look at the next card until you're done handling any replacement effects that modify how that land enters the battlefield (such as that of Vesuva).
  • Magus of the Future doesn't change when you can play lands. You can do so only during your main phase when you have priority and the stack is empty.
  • Playing a land from the top of your library counts as your land play for the turn. Once you play a land during your turn, you won't be able to play an additional land from the top of your library unless another effect (such as that of Azusa, Lost but Seeking) allows you to.
  • The top card of your library is still in your library and not in your hand. You can't discard or suspend cards from the top of your library, for example.
  • You must follow the normal timing permissions and restrictions of the spells you cast from your library.
  • You still pay all costs for a spell you cast from your library, including additional costs. You may also pay alternative costs.

    Rules

  • If Oona's Blackguard enters at the same time as another Rogue (due to Living End, for example), that creature doesn't get a +1/+1 counter.
  • If a Rogue would normally enter with a certain number of +1/+1 counters on it, it enters with that many +1/+1 counters plus one on it instead. If a Rogue would normally enter with no +1/+1 counters on it, it enters with one +1/+1 counter on it instead.
  • The creature gets the counter if it would enter under your control. It doesn't matter who owns the creature or what zone it enters from (such as your opponent's graveyard, for example).
  • The effects from more than one of these cards are cumulative. That is, if you have two Oona's Blackguard on the battlefield, Rogue creatures you control enter with two additional +1/+1 counters on them.
