"Find me cards equivalent to: Ill-Gotten Gains"

Equivalent cards to Ill-Gotten Gains that are black (B), sorcery, and interact with hand/graveyard manipulation:

  • Yawgmoth's Will: Lets you play cards from your graveyard for a turn. (Color: B, Sorcery, Graveyard interaction)
  • Memory Jar (honorable mention—artifact, not black): Both players exile hands and draw cards, but color doesn't match.
  • Yawgmoth's Agenda: Lets you play cards from grave this turn, one per turn.
  • Reaping the Graves (instant, not sorcery, but close in effect—returns creatures from grave to hand).


Reason: Very few black sorceries exile, force discard, and return cards directly like Ill-Gotten Gains. Closest black effects focus on graveyard recursion or mass discard.

    Rules

  • A copy of a spell can be countered like any other spell, but it must be countered individually. Countering a spell with storm won't affect the copies.
  • Spells cast from zones other than a player's hand and spells that were countered are counted by the storm ability.
  • The copies are put directly onto the stack. They aren't cast and won't be counted by other spells with storm cast later in the turn.
  • The triggered ability that creates the copies can itself be countered by anything that can counter a triggered ability. If it is countered, no copies will be put onto the stack.
  • You may choose new targets for any of the copies. You can make different choices for each copy.

  • If an effect asks you to discard a card, you can’t “discard” something that is in your graveyard. Those cards are not in your hand. Thus, Cycling abilities of cards in the graveyard can’t be activated.
  • If you cast a Buyback spell, then there will be two effects trying to replace where the card goes. You get to choose if the Buyback returns the card to your hand or the card gets exiled.
  • If you play a card using Yawgmoth’s Will and something triggers only when “cast from your hand”, that something will not trigger. Such things trigger based on where the card came from.
  • It will exile itself since it goes to the graveyard after its effect starts.
  • The second ability creates a replacement effect. It applies to both costs and effects.
  • To “play a card” is to either cast a spell or to put a land onto the battlefield using the main phase special action.
  • You cannot Suspend a card from your graveyard, only your hand.
