"Find me cards equivalent to: Hopeless Nightmare"

Here are equivalent cards to Hopeless Nightmare with similar attributes (black, enchantment, discard/effect):
1. Davriel's Shadowfugue (Sorcery, B) — Each opponent discards 2 cards and loses 2 life.


  • Reason: Discard + life loss; not an enchantment though.
    2. Burglar Rat (Creature, B) — Each opponent discards a card on ETB.

  • Reason: Similar discard trigger upon entering.
    3. Oppressive Rays (Enchantment, W) — Not black, so doesn't fit the color requirement.
    4. Eaten Alive (Sorcery, B) — Not an enchantment; mainly removal.

Closest black enchantment with discard:

  • Davriel, Rogue Shadowmage (Planeswalker, B) — Forces discard, deals life loss.

Currently, there is no black enchantment that does all: discard, cause life loss on ETB, and provide a graveyard effect like scry. Hopeless Nightmare is somewhat unique. Closest equivalents are Burglar Rat (discard ETB), and Davriel, Rogue Shadowmage (repeatable discard/loss).

    Rules

  • If an opponent has one or fewer cards in hand as Davriel's first ability triggers but has two or more cards in hand as that ability resolves, Davriel doesn't deal damage to them.
  • If an opponent has two or more cards in their hand as their upkeep begins, Davriel's first ability won't trigger. No player may take any actions during a turn before the turn's upkeep begins. Because the upkeep step is before the draw step, that player won't have drawn a card for the turn yet.
  • In a Two-Headed Giant game, Davriel's first ability triggers for each opponent separately as appropriate during that player's team's upkeep.
