"Find me cards equivalent to: Grim Affliction"

Equivalent cards to Grim Affliction (black, instant, -1/-1 counter effect + proliferate) are limited due to unique mechanics. Closest options in mono-black instants:
1. Grim Affliction – Your searched card.
2. Spread the Sickness – Sorcery, destroys creature and proliferates, but not instant.
3. Horrific Assault – Instant, not related to -1/-1 counters or proliferate.
4. Fume Spitter – Not an instant, but places a -1/-1 counter.

Summary: Grim Affliction is unique as a black instant with both a -1/-1 counter and proliferate. No direct equivalents exist in mono-black instant spells.

  • Fume Spitter can be the target of its own ability. The ability won’t resolve since it won’t have a legal target, and no counter will be put on any creature, but this does allow you to sacrifice Fume Spitter without another creature to target if you want to.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Proliferate

    Rules

  • You may choose the creature you put the -1/-1 counter on to get another -1/-1 counter when proliferating.
  • An ability that triggers "Whenever you proliferate" triggers even if you chose no permanents or players while doing so.
  • If a permanent ever has both +1/+1 counters and -1/-1 counters on it at the same time, they're removed in pairs as a state-based action so that the permanent has only one of those kinds of counters on it.
  • If a player or permanent has more than one kind of counter on it, and you choose for it to get additional counters, it must get one of each kind of counter it already has. You can't have it get just one kind of counter it already has and not the others.
  • Players can respond to a spell or ability whose effect includes proliferating. Once that spell or ability starts to resolve, however, and its controller chooses which permanents and players will get new counters, it's too late for anyone to respond.
  • To proliferate, you can choose any permanent that has a counter, including ones controlled by opponents. You can choose any player who has a counter, including opponents. You can't choose cards in any zone other than the battlefield, even if they have counters on them.
  • You don't have to choose every permanent or player that has a counter, only the ones you want to add another counter to. Since "any number" includes zero, you don't have to choose any permanents at all, and you don't have to choose any players at all.
