"Find me cards equivalent to: Mourner's Surprise"

Equivalent cards (black, sorcery, returns a creature from graveyard to hand & provides a token):
1. Mourner's Surprise (reference card)
2. Phyrexian Rager (not a sorcery, but similar—returns creature and creates value)
3. Soul Salvage (black sorcery, returns up to two creature cards from graveyard to hand, no token)
4. Call of the Death-Dweller (black sorcery, returns up to two creatures, gives counters/keywords)
5. Disturbed Burial (black sorcery, returns creature card with buyback, no token)
6. Rise from the Grave (black sorcery, returns creature directly to play, no token)

No black sorcery directly creates a versatile token like the one in Mourner’s Surprise, but these are the closest equivalents in function.

  • A later effect that changes the affected creature’s colors will overwrite that part of Rise from the Grave’s effect; the creature will be only the new color. The same is true about an effect that changes the affected creature’s types or subtypes.
  • If the creature is normally colorless, it will simply become black. It can’t be both black and colorless.
  • Rise from the Grave doesn’t overwrite any previous colors or types. Rather, it adds another color and another subtype.
