"Find me cards equivalent to: Hostile Takeover"

Equivalent cards to Hostile Takeover (Sorcery, black/red/blue, mass damage, stat manipulation) are rare, but here are some similar options in the same colors:
1. Toxic Deluge — [B], Sorcery, lets you set toughness before mass damage.
2. Culling Sun — [W][B][W], Sorcery, mass removal, but not in URB.
3. Blasphemous Act — [R], Sorcery, mass damage to all creatures (closest red parallel).
4. Depopulate — [W][W], Sorcery, full board wipe, but not Grixis colors.
5. Cyclonic Rift — [U], mass bounce, not direct damage.

None match all the unique stat-setting and burn in Grixis, but Hostile Takeover is unique in its full effect within those colors. Closest Grixis alternatives: Damn ([B][W], destroy all creatures), or Ruinous Ultimatum ([R][R][W][W][B][B]), but both miss the stat-changing piece. Hostile Takeover is the best fit.

    Rules

  • Although players may respond to Blasphemous Act once it's been cast, once it's announced, they can't respond before the cost is calculated and paid.
  • Blasphemous Act's ability can't reduce the total cost to cast the spell below {R}.
  • The total cost to cast Blasphemous Act is locked in before you pay that cost. For example, if there are three creatures on the battlefield, including one you can sacrifice to add {C}, the total cost of Blasphemous Act is {5}{R}. Then you can sacrifice the creature when you activate mana abilities just before paying the cost.
  • To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you're paying, add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions (such as that of Blasphemous Act). The mana value of the spell is determined only by its mana cost, no matter what the total cost to cast the spell was.

    Overload

    Rules

  • Because a spell with overload doesn't target when its overload cost is paid, it may affect permanents with hexproof or with protection from the appropriate color.
  • If you are instructed to cast a spell with overload "without paying its mana cost," you can't choose to pay its overload cost instead.
  • If you don't pay the overload cost of a spell with overload, that spell will have a single target. If you pay the overload cost, the spell won't have any targets.
  • To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you're paying (such as an overload cost), add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The mana value of the spell remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.
