"Find me cards equivalent to: Modular Monstrosity"

Equivalent cards to Modular Monstrosity (artifact creature, colorless, unique keyword ability gaining):
1. Steel Overseer – Artifact Creature that interacts with artifact creatures but doesn’t gain abilities.
2. Mishra's Self-Replicator – Artifact Creature that makes copies of itself whenever you cast historic spells.
3. Adaptive Automaton – Artifact Creature that grants abilities to a chosen creature type.
4. Arcbound Ravager – Artifact Creature, modular, can gain counters; interacts with keywords (modular).
5. Esper Sentinel – Artifact Creature, triggered ability from spell casting (not keyword gaining).


Reason:
No card copies the exact ability-gaining mechanic of Modular Monstrosity, but these colorless artifact creatures interact with spells/counters/abilities in unique ways. Closest in spirit are cards like Arcbound Ravager and Adaptive Automaton for their ability manipulation.

  • If Esper Sentinel's has negative power when this ability resolves, then {X} is {0}. The opponent may still choose not to pay the cost if they want you to draw a card.
  • If a noncreature spell was already cast by an opponent the turn Esper Sentinel enters the battlefield, that opponent already cast their first noncreature spell this turn, and Esper Sentinel's ability won't trigger for that opponent that turn.
  • This ability checks Esper Sentinel's power when it resolves, not when the ability goes on the stack. If Esper Sentinel is no longer on the battlefield when it resolves, use the power it had the last time it was on the battlefield.

    Copy

    Rules

  • A card, spell, or permanent is historic if it has the legendary supertype, the artifact card type, or the Saga subtype. Having two of those qualities doesn’t make an object more historic than another or provide an additional bonus—an object either is historic or it isn’t.
  • An ability that triggers “whenever you cast a historic spell” doesn’t trigger if a historic card is put onto the battlefield without being cast.
  • If Mishra’s Self-Replicator leaves the battlefield before its triggered ability resolves, the token will still enter the battlefield as a copy of Mishra’s Self-Replicator, using Mishra’s Self-Replicator’s copiable values from when it was last on the battlefield.
  • Lands are never cast, so abilities that trigger “whenever you cast a historic spell” won’t trigger if you play a legendary land. They also won’t trigger if a card on the battlefield transforms into a legendary land, as the Ixalan and Rivals of Ixalan double-faced cards do.
  • Some abilities trigger “whenever you cast a historic spell.” Such an ability resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger. It resolves even if that spell is countered.
  • The token will have Mishra’s Self-Replicator’s ability. It will also be able to create copies of itself.
  • The token won’t copy counters or damage marked on Mishra’s Self-Replicator, nor will it copy other effects that have changed Mishra’s Self-Replicator’s power, toughness, types, color, and so on. Normally, this means the token will simply be a Mishra’s Self-Replicator, but if any copy effects have affected that Mishra’s Self-Replicator, they’re taken into account.
  • While resolving the triggered ability of Mishra’s Self-Replicator, you can’t pay {1} multiple times to create more than one token. However, if you control more than one Mishra’s Self-Replicator, you can pay {1} for each of their abilities.

  • Each keyword can be chosen only once on any given day. And that counts every Modular Monstrosity you play with that day. You also can't reuse a keyword with a new modifier. For example, if you choose protection from Demons and from Dragons (totally counts), you can't choose protection from red later that day. Protection has already been used.
  • If you haven't made a valid choice after five seconds, Modular Monstrosity loses all keyword abilities, including ones its picked up in other ways.
  • If you make an invalid choice, you can still make a valid choice as long as time hasn't expired.
  • You may choose any keyword ability that appears on any printed Magic creature card. You can't pick keyword actions like explore or scry. If the keyword has a modifier, such as a mana cost or a number, you must choose a modifier that's been printed. Sorry, "annihilator 500" fans.
