"Find me cards equivalent to: Kenzo the Hardhearted"

Equivalent cards to Kenzo the Hardhearted (white/black Samurai, Bushido, saboteur kill ability):
1. Silent-Blade Oni – Has a saboteur trigger, also deals with opponents directly (blue/black, though).
2. Ninja of the Deep Hours – Another saboteur-style card, similar mechanic (blue, but no white/black).
3. Samurai of the Pale Curtain – White Samurai with a replacement effect, not an exact kill ability.
4. Kokusho, the Evening Star – Legendary black creature with a death trigger (big difference in effect).

Closest in color and function: None combine Bushido, kill ability, and samurai creature type in white/black exactly like Kenzo. The card is uniquely efficient for its effect. Look to white/black saboteur creatures for closest synergy; Silent-Blade Oni is mechanically closest but slightly off-color.


Reason: There are no direct equivalents in the same color combo with identical mechanics, but there are similar saboteurs or legendary samurai.

    Rules

  • Although the Ninja is attacking, it was never declared as an attacking creature (for purposes of abilities that trigger whenever a creature attacks, for example).
  • As you activate a ninjutsu ability, you reveal the Ninja card in your hand and return the attacking creature. The Ninja isn't put onto the battlefield until the ability resolves. If it leaves your hand before then, it won't enter the battlefield at all.
  • If a creature in combat has first strike or double strike, you can activate the ninjutsu ability during the first-strike combat damage step. The Ninja will deal combat damage during the regular combat damage step in this case, even if it has first strike.
  • The creature put onto the battlefield with ninjutsu enters the battlefield attacking the same player or planeswalker that the returned creature was attacking. This is a rule specific to ninjutsu.
  • The ninjutsu ability can be activated during the declare blockers step, combat damage step, or end of combat step. If you wait until after the declare blockers step, because all combat damage is dealt at once, the Ninja won't normally deal combat damage.
  • The ninjutsu ability can be activated only after blockers have been declared. Before then, attacking creatures are neither blocked nor unblocked.

    Rules

  • If you cast a card without paying its mana cost, you can't choose to cast it for any alternative costs, such as evoke or the alternative cost provided by the morph ability. If it has {X} in its mana cost, X must be 0. However, you can pay optional additional costs, such as kicker, and you must still pay mandatory additional costs, such as the one on Fling.
  • If you cast a permanent spell this way, it will enter under your control when it resolves. If you cast an instant or sorcery spell this way, that card will be put into its owner's graveyard when it resolves.
  • The nonland card you cast via the triggered ability is cast as part of the resolution of that ability. Timing restrictions based on the card's type are ignored. Other restrictions, such as "Cast [this card] only during an opponent's turn," are not.
