7 Cards Found

AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Embodiment of Agonies

Equivalent cards to Embodiment of Agonies (Black, based on graveyard diversity):

  • Tarmogoyf (Green, uses graveyard card types for size, but not black)
  • Soulflayer (Black, graveyard matters for abilities)
  • Necrotic Ooze (Black, uses graveyard creature abilities)
  • Grim Flayer (Black/Green, graveyard synergy affects itself)
  • Death's Shadow (Black, size based on life total, shares a graveyard/stat theme)


Reason: These black cards care about the graveyard or inherit stats/abilities from it, similar to Embodiment of Agonies. None are exact, but these are closest in color and intent.

  • If your life total is negative, X is considered to be 0.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Deathtouch Flying

    Rules

  • Alternative costs, additional costs you could pay, cost increases, and cost reductions are all ignored by Embodiment of Agonies.
  • Embodiment of Agonies checks the mana symbols in a card's mana cost. For example, a mana cost of {X} is different than a mana cost of {0}.
  • Every Magic card has either no mana cost or exactly one mana cost. A card with no mana cost is never counted by Embodiment of Agonies. A card with a mana cost of {0} is counted.
  • Hybrid mana symbols are treated as the actual symbols, not as either of their two components individually. For example, {B/R}, {B}, and {R} are three different mana costs.
  • If you return Embodiment of Agonies from your graveyard to the battlefield, its last ability counts itself.
  • The mana cost of a split card is determined by its two halves combined. For example, the mana cost of Fire//Ice in your graveyard is {2}{U}{R}, the same as the mana cost of Ral's Outburst.

  • Activated abilities contain a colon. They're generally written "[Cost]: [Effect]." Some keywords are activated abilities; they have colons in their reminder text.
  • If an activated ability of a card in a graveyard references the card it's printed on by name, treat Necrotic Ooze's version of that ability as though it referenced Necrotic Ooze by name instead. For example, if Cudgel Troll (which says "{G}: Regenerate Cudgel Troll") is in a graveyard, Necrotic Ooze has the ability "{G}: Regenerate Necrotic Ooze."
  • Necrotic Ooze gains only activated abilities. It doesn't gain keyword abilities (unless those keyword abilities are activated), triggered abilities, or static abilities.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Delve

    Rules

  • Creature cards that have abilities that grant the listed keyword abilities to themselves won’t count. For example, exiling a Battle Brawler (a creature with “As long as you control a red or white permanent, Battle Brawler gets +1/+0 and has first strike”) with Soulflayer’s delve ability won’t cause Soulflayer to have first strike, even if you control a red or white permanent.
  • You can’t exile more cards from your graveyard than you’d need to pay Soulflayer’s generic mana requirement. In most situations, this means you can’t exile more than four cards, even if you want to exile more to give it extra abilities.
  • If one of those creature cards has one or more variants of the listed keywords (for example, hexproof from white), this creature gains those specific variants.
  • Because delve isn’t an alternative cost, it can be used in conjunction with alternative costs, such as flashback. It can also be used to pay for additional costs that include generic mana.
  • Delve doesn’t change a spell’s mana cost or mana value. For example, Treasure Cruise’s mana value is 8 even if you exiled three cards to cast it.
  • You can exile cards to pay only for generic mana, and you can’t exile more cards than the generic mana requirement of a spell with delve. For example, you can’t exile more than seven cards from your graveyard to cast Treasure Cruise unless an effect has increased its cost.

    Delve (Each card you exile from your graveyard while casting this spell pays for .) If a creature card with flying was exiled with this creature's delve ability, this creature has flying. The same is true for first strike, double strike, deathtouch, haste, hexproof, indestructible, lifelink, reach, trample, and vigilance.

    Rules

  • If an instant or sorcery spell deals damage to Tarmogoyf or lowers its toughness, that spell is put into its owner's graveyard before state-based actions are performed. If that card is the first of its type to enter a graveyard, it will raise Tarmogoyf's toughness before the game checks to see if Tarmogoyf dies.
  • Tarmogoyf counts card types, not cards. If the only card in all graveyards is a single artifact creature, Tarmogoyf will be 2/3. If the only cards in all graveyards are ten artifact creatures, Tarmogoyf will still be 2/3.
  • The ability that defines Tarmogoyf's power and toughness works in all zones, not just the battlefield. If Tarmogoyf is in your graveyard, it will count itself.
  • The card types that can appear on cards in a graveyard are artifact, battle, creature, enchantment, instant, kindred, land, planeswalker, and sorcery. Legendary, basic, and snow are supertypes, not card types.
  • Some older printings of this card reference the "tribal" card type in their reminder text. That card type's name has been replaced with "kindred". This change does not affect the gameplay function of those cards or of Tarmogoyf. (The same older printings of this card also fail to reference the "battle" card type, which didn't exist at the time, but Tarmogoyf's ability still counts that card type.)
