"Find me cards equivalent to: Cruel Revival"

Cards equivalent to Cruel Revival (black instants that destroy and may have a return or recursion effect):
1. Victim of Night – Destroys a non-Vampire, non-Werewolf, non-Zombie creature. (No recursion.)
2. Go for the Throat – Destroys nonartifact creature. (No recursion.)
3. Malicious Affliction – Destroys target nonblack creature, Morbid: may copy. (No recursion.)
4. Price of Fame – Destroys target creature, surveil
2. (No recursion.)
5. Gruesome Menagerie – Not an instant, but returns creatures from graveyard to hand.

None do exactly both destroy and recur a Zombie like Cruel Revival, but these are the closest black instant equivalents. Cruel Revival is unique in combining both effects.

    Rules

  • The copy of Malicious Affliction is created on the stack. It’s not cast, so the copy won’t cause the morbid ability to trigger again.
  • The copy will have the same target as the original spell unless you choose a new one. You don’t have to change this target if you don’t want to or can’t choose a new legal target (perhaps because there are no other nonblack creatures on the battlefield).

    Surveil

    Rules

  • Price of Fame can target a creature that's indestructible. It won't be destroyed, but you'll surveil.
  • Price of Fame's mana value is 4, even if it costs {2} less to cast.
  • You'll surveil before resolving any abilities that trigger on the target creature dying.
  • Some spells that instruct you to surveil require targets. You can't cast a spell without choosing legal targets. If all of those targets become illegal, the spell doesn't resolve and you won't surveil.
  • When you surveil, you may put all the cards you look at back on top of your library, you may put all of those cards into your graveyard, or you may put some of those cards on top and the rest of them into your graveyard.
  • You perform the actions stated on a card in sequence. For some spells and abilities, you'll surveil last. For others, you'll surveil and then perform other actions.
