"Find me cards equivalent to: Flay Essence"

Equivalent cards to Flay Essence (Sorcery, Black, exile creature/planeswalker, gain life):
1. Eat to Extinction — Instant, exile creature or planeswalker, surveil
1. Not exactly the same, but very similar functionality.
2. Infernal Grasp — Destroys (not exile), but still unconditional removal at instant speed, lose 2 life.
3. Phyrexian Purge — Sorcery, destroy any number of creatures by paying life; not exile, but black mass removal.

Closest is Eat to Extinction. No other black sorcery exiles a creature or planeswalker and gains life the same way as Flay Essence.
