"Find me cards equivalent to: Laboratory Drudge"

Cards similar to Laboratory Drudge (blue, cares about spells or abilities from the graveyard, draws cards):
1. Secrets of the Dead — Enchantment, but draws a card when you cast a spell from a graveyard.
2. Chasm Skulker — Creature that gives value for drawing cards, but not directly linked to graveyard spells.
3. Rise from the Tides — Makes Zombies for spells in graveyard but doesn't draw cards.
4. Tomebound Lich — Draws and discards, but not linked to graveyard activity.
5. Archmage Emeritus — Draws cards for casting or copying instants/sorceries (not graveyard-specific, still blue).

Summary: Blue rarely rewards specifically for casting from or interacting with graveyards on creatures, making Laboratory Drudge quite unique. Secrets of the Dead is closest in function, though it's an enchantment.

    Rules

  • Each magecraft ability has a different effect, although they all have the same trigger condition, whenever you cast or copy an instant or sorcery spell.
  • If an effect creates a copy of an instant or sorcery spell, this will also cause the magecraft ability to trigger.
  • If an effect creates multiple copies of an instant or sorcery spell, magecraft abilities trigger once for each copy created by the effect.
  • Some effects instruct you to copy an instant or sorcery card in a zone other than the stack. These copies do not cause magecraft abilities to trigger. However, most effects that do this also allow you to cast the copy, and casting the copy will cause magecraft abilities to trigger.

    Rules

  • If enough -1/-1 counters are put on Chasm Skulker at the same time to make its toughness 0 or less, the number of +1/+1 counters on it before it got any -1/-1 counters will be used to determine how many Squid tokens you get. For example, if there are two +1/+1 counters on Chasm Skulker and it gets three -1/-1 counters, you'll get two Squid tokens.
  • If you draw multiple cards, the first ability will trigger that many times. Each of these abilities will cause a +1/+1 counter to be put on Chasm Skulker.
