5 Cards Found

AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Custodi Lich

Some equivalent cards to Custodi Lich (black, Monarch, value on ETB or LTB):
1. Thorn of the Black Rose — Also makes you the Monarch in black.
2. Palace Jailer — White, but similar Monarch ETB effect (not black, but closest functional equivalent).
3. Archfiend of Depravity — Black, repeatable opponent sacrifice effect (not Monarch, but similar value).
4. Desecration Demon — Black, forces sacrifice, though not on ETB.

Note: Among black cards, Thorn of the Black Rose is the cleanest functional match due to Monarch. Monarch is rare in black outside those.

    Rules

  • Abilities that trigger whenever you “become the monarch” trigger only if you aren't already the monarch. For example, if you are already the monarch as Custodi Lich enters the battlefield, its last ability won't trigger.
  • Being the monarch carries two inherent triggered abilities. “At the beginning of the monarch's end step, that player draws a card” and “Whenever a creature deals combat damage to the monarch, its controller becomes the monarch.”
  • If the triggered ability that causes the monarch to draw a card goes on the stack, and a different player becomes the monarch before that ability resolves, the first player will still draw the card.
  • The game starts with no monarch. Once an effect makes one player the monarch, the game will have exactly one monarch from that point forward.
