"Find me cards equivalent to: Defiler of Flesh"

Defiler of Flesh equivalents in black that reduce black spell costs via life payment are rare. The closest equivalents are:
1. Defiler of Dreams (blue), Defiler of Vigor (green), Defiler of Faith (white), and Defiler of Instinct (red): All part of the same cycle, but not black.
2. Grim Hireling - Creates Treasures but doesn't reduce casting cost.
3. Blood Celebrant - Swaps mana for black but not by paying life.

No other black creatures do exactly what Defiler of Flesh does. It’s unique among black horror creatures for its Phyrexian mana reduction ability. Closest parallels are its cycle members and generic mana fixing like Blood Celebrant.

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.
