8 Cards Found

AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Death Watch

Equivalent black cards to Death Watch (an Aura that punishes a dying creature’s controller by losing life equal to its power):

  • Stab Wound: Weakens a creature and causes its controller to lose life each upkeep.
  • Psychic Venom: Damages the land’s controller when tapped, similar punishment effect (not exactly on death).
  • Curiosity: (Blue, draws cards on damage; not black, but similar in a “when this creature does X” way).

Closest black match:

  • Dead Weight: Aura that weakens creature, but does not punish on death.
  • Infernal Scarring: When enchanted creature dies, you draw a card (reward, not punishment).

No direct black Auras do exactly what Death Watch does; you may try using Kalastria Highborn or Vindictive Vampire for similar death-triggered loss of life (not enchantments).

Summary: No perfect Aura equivalent in black; consider effects like Stab Wound or creatures with similar death-punishment triggers.

    Rules

  • "You" refers to the controller of Curiosity, which may be different from the controller of the enchanted creature. "An opponent" refers to an opponent of Curiosity's controller.
  • Any damage dealt by the enchanted creature to an opponent will cause Curiosity to trigger, not just combat damage.
  • Curiosity doesn't trigger if the enchanted creature deals damage to a planeswalker or to a battle.
  • If you control Curiosity and it's enchanting an opponent's creature, you won't draw a card when that creature deals damage to you. The creature has to deal damage to one of your opponents for the ability to trigger.
  • You draw one card each time the enchanted creature deals damage to an opponent, no matter how much damage it deals.
