6 Cards Found

AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Dirge of Dread

Equivalent cards to Dirge of Dread (black, cycling, gives creatures a keyword until end of turn):

  • Gravepurge (black, instant, puts creatures on top of your library and draws a card)
  • Trumpet Blast is similar in function but red (boosts power, not evasion)
  • Suffocating Fumes (black, instant, cycling, gives -1/-1 to creatures)
  • Unearth (black, cycling, returns a creature from graveyard to battlefield)

Closest in function—black cards with cycling and combat keywords:

  • Choking Tethers (similar effect but blue, taps creatures and cycles)
  • No exact other black card gives fear/menace with cycling, but Dirge of Dread is unique in this regard.


Reason: Dirge of Dread is almost unique for black; look at black cycling spells for closest matches.

    Rules

  • The cycling ability and the triggered ability are separate. If the triggered ability doesn't resolve (because, for example, it has been countered, or all of its targets have become illegal), the cycling ability will still resolve, and you'll draw a card.
  • When you cycle this card, first the cycling ability goes on the stack, then the triggered ability goes on the stack on top of it. The triggered ability will resolve before you draw a card from the cycling ability.
  • You can cycle this card even if there are no legal targets for the triggered ability.

    Rules

  • An "attacking creature" is one that has been declared as an attacker this combat, or one that was put onto the battlefield attacking this combat. Unless that creature leaves combat, it continues to be an attacking creature through the end of combat step, even if the player it was attacking has left the game, or the planeswalker it was attacking has left combat.
  • Even though Trumpet Blast affects only attacking creatures, the bonus will remain for the rest of the turn.
  • Only creatures that are attacking as Trumpet Blast resolves will receive the bonus. In other words, casting it before you've declared attackers usually won't do anything.
