"Find me cards equivalent to: Cryptborn Horror"

Here are cards similar to Cryptborn Horror, matching BR color and theme of +1/+1 counters or benefiting from loss of life:
1. Scourge of the Skyclaves – It enters with power/toughness based on life totals (BR identity legal in Commander, mono-B otherwise).
2. Defiler of Flesh – Black creature, not identical effect but puts pressure on opponent’s life.
3. Marauding Blight-Priest – Drains life when you gain life, not +1/+1 but BR and life-loss related.
4. Rakdos Cackler – Simple BR Horror that gets +1/+1 counter, more aggro-focused.
5. Soulflayer – Black, gets counters if creatures exiled with it had abilities.

No card matches Cryptborn Horror exactly in both color, type, and all effects, but these have connections to its mechanics.

    Rules

  • Cryptborn Horror cares about the total life lost, not necessarily what an opponent's life total is compared to what it was at the beginning of the turn. For example, if an opponent loses 5 life and then gains 10 life on the turn Cryptborn Horror enters, it will enter with five +1/+1 counters on it.
  • If no opponent has lost life on the turn Cryptborn Horror enters, it will enter with no +1/+1 counters on it and be put into its owner's graveyard (unless something else is raising its toughness).
  • In multiplayer games, life lost the turn Cryptborn Horror enters by opponents who left the game later that turn will count toward the value of X.
  • Remember, damage dealt to a player causes that player to lose that much life (unless the source has infect).

    Menace

    Rules

  • Some players may make the mental shortcut that the Defilers effectively turn one of the colored mana symbols in the spell’s cost into a Phyrexian colored mana symbol. Despite the similarity in function, this ability does not cause the spells to have Phyrexian mana symbols in their costs. Sorry, Rage Extractor!
  • You may only pay the additional cost once per permanent spell.

    Menace As an additional cost to cast black permanent spells, you may pay 2 life. Those spells cost less to cast if you paid life this way. This effect reduces only the amount of black mana you pay. Whenever you cast a black permanent spell, target creature you control gets +1/+1 and gains menace until end of turn.

    Rules

  • Each creature with lifelink dealing combat damage causes a separate life-gaining event. For example, if two creatures you control with lifelink deal combat damage at the same time, Marauding Blight-Priest's ability will trigger twice. However, if a single creature you control with lifelink deals combat damage to multiple creatures, players, planeswalkers, and/or battles at the same time (perhaps because it has trample or was blocked by more than one creature), the ability will trigger only once.
  • If you gain an amount of life "for each" of something or "equal to the number" of something, that life is gained as one event and Marauding Blight-Priest's ability will trigger only once.
  • In a Two-Headed Giant game, life gained by your teammate won't cause Marauding Blight-Priest's ability to trigger, even though it caused your team's life total to increase.
  • Marauding Blight-Priest's ability triggers just once for each life-gaining event, whether it's 1 life from Dazzling Angel or 4 life from Apothecary Stomper.

    Unleash

    Rules

  • A creature with unleash can’t block if it has any +1/+1 counter on it, not just one put on it by the unleash ability.
  • Putting a +1/+1 counter on a creature with unleash that’s already blocking won’t remove it from combat. It will continue to block.
  • The unleash ability applies no matter where the creature is entering the battlefield from.
  • You make the choice to have the creature with unleash enter the battlefield with a +1/+1 counter or not as it’s entering the battlefield. At that point, it’s too late for a player to respond to the creature spell by trying to counter it, for example.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Kicker

    Rules

  • An ability that triggers when a player casts a spell resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger. It resolves even if that spell is countered. Notably, Scourge of the Skyclaves may have its toughness change from less than 0 to greater than 0 as a result of its triggered ability before it resolves and enters the battlefield.
  • If the highest life total among players is greater than 20, Scourge of the Skyclaves has negative power and toughness equal to the difference.
  • In a Two-Headed Giant game, Scourge of the Skyclaves causes each team to lose twice half their life rounded up, which is their full life total or, if it's odd, that much life plus 1. This causes the game to end in a draw.
  • The ability that defines Scourge of the Skyclaves's power and toughness applies in all zones, not just the battlefield.
  • If a card or token enters as a copy of a permanent, the new permanent isn't kicked, even if the original was.
  • If a spell's kicker cost was paid, the spell is "kicked."
  • If you copy a kicked spell on the stack, the copy is also kicked. If the copied spell is a permanent spell, the token the copy of that spell becomes when it enters is also kicked.
  • If you put a permanent with a kicker ability onto the battlefield without casting it, you can't kick it.
  • The kicker ability doesn't let you pay a kicker cost more than once.
  • To determine a spell's total cost, start with the mana cost (or an alternative cost if another card's effect allows you to pay one instead), add any cost increases (such as kicker), then apply any cost reductions. The spell's mana value remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.

    Kicker When you cast this spell, if it was kicked, each player loses half their life, rounded up. Scourge of the Skyclaves's power and toughness are each equal to 20 minus the highest life total among players.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Delve

    Rules

  • Creature cards that have abilities that grant the listed keyword abilities to themselves won’t count. For example, exiling a Battle Brawler (a creature with “As long as you control a red or white permanent, Battle Brawler gets +1/+0 and has first strike”) with Soulflayer’s delve ability won’t cause Soulflayer to have first strike, even if you control a red or white permanent.
  • You can’t exile more cards from your graveyard than you’d need to pay Soulflayer’s generic mana requirement. In most situations, this means you can’t exile more than four cards, even if you want to exile more to give it extra abilities.
  • If one of those creature cards has one or more variants of the listed keywords (for example, hexproof from white), this creature gains those specific variants.
  • Because delve isn’t an alternative cost, it can be used in conjunction with alternative costs, such as flashback. It can also be used to pay for additional costs that include generic mana.
  • Delve doesn’t change a spell’s mana cost or mana value. For example, Treasure Cruise’s mana value is 8 even if you exiled three cards to cast it.
  • You can exile cards to pay only for generic mana, and you can’t exile more cards than the generic mana requirement of a spell with delve. For example, you can’t exile more than seven cards from your graveyard to cast Treasure Cruise unless an effect has increased its cost.

    Delve (Each card you exile from your graveyard while casting this spell pays for .) If a creature card with flying was exiled with this creature's delve ability, this creature has flying. The same is true for first strike, double strike, deathtouch, haste, hexproof, indestructible, lifelink, reach, trample, and vigilance.
