AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Dirge of Dread

Equivalent cards to Dirge of Dread in black:
1. Cycling with an additional effect:

  • Dark Inquiry (discards a card instead of -1/-1, lacks Cycling but similar effect)
  • Twisted Abomination (Cycling, has a triggered effect—search land)
  • Unburden (discards two cards, has Cycling)
  • Unearth (Cycling, returns a creature from graveyard)

Direct equivalents with Cycling and an effect attached in black are rare, but above are similar in spirit. Dirge of Dread offers both board impact and card draw via Cycling, a combination that is somewhat unique.

    Cycling

    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.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Cycling

    Rules

  • Swampcycling is a form of cycling. Any ability that triggers on a card being cycled also triggers on Swampcycling this card. Any ability that stops a cycling ability from being activated also stops Swampcycling from being activated.
  • Swampcycling is an activated ability. Effects that interact with activated abilities (such as Stifle or Rings of Brighthearth) will interact with Swampcycling. Effects that interact with spells (such as Remove Soul or Faerie Tauntings) will not.
  • Unlike the normal cycling ability, Swampcycling doesn't allow you to draw a card. Instead, it lets you search your library for a Swamp card. After you find a Swamp card in your library, you reveal it, put it into your hand, then shuffle your library.
  • You can choose to find any card with the Swamp land type, including nonbasic lands. You can also choose not to find a card, even if there is a Swamp card in your library.
