"Find me cards equivalent to: Nin, the Pain Artist"

Here are equivalent cards (R/U, legendary creatures, similar abilities):
1. Nin, the Pain Artist – The original, deals X damage and draws X cards.
2. Keranos, God of Storms – Generates card advantage and deals damage, but not directly X-based or on creatures.
3. Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind – Draws and deals damage when you draw cards, interacts with card draw and damage, though not with the same targeting or mana sink flexibility.

Reason: There are few direct equivalents. Most Izzet (R/U) legendary creatures deal with drawing/card advantage and damage, but Nin, the Pain Artist is unique for its targeted, variable-damage draw effect.

    Rules

  • If you reveal a land card this way, Keranos's triggered ability will cause you to draw another card.
  • As a God enters the battlefield, your devotion to its color will determine whether any replacement effects that affect creatures entering the battlefield apply to that God. Because replacement effects are considered before the God is on the battlefield, the mana symbols in its mana cost won't be counted when determining this.
  • Counters put on a God remain on it while it's not a creature, even if they have no effect.
  • If a God is attacking or blocking and it stops being a creature, it will be removed from combat. It won't rejoin combat if it resumes being a creature later during that combat.
  • If a God stops being a creature, it loses the type creature and the creature type God. It continues to be a legendary enchantment.
  • If an effect causes a God to lose all abilities, its ability that causes it to stop being a creature still applies if appropriate.
  • The abilities of Gods function as long as they're on the battlefield, regardless of whether they're creatures.
  • The type-changing ability that can make a God not be a creature functions only on the battlefield. It's always a creature card in other zones, regardless of your devotion to its color. It's always a creature spell while it's on the stack.
  • When a God enters the battlefield, your devotion to its color (including the mana symbols in the mana cost of the God itself) will determine if a creature entered the battlefield or not for abilities that trigger whenever a creature enters the battlefield.
  • Your devotion to two colors is the number of mana symbols among mana costs of permanents you control that are the first color, the second, or both. If an effect counts your devotion to two colors, a hybrid symbol that is both of those colors is counted just once.

    Indestructible As long as your devotion to blue and red is less than seven, Keranos isn't a creature. Reveal the first card you draw on each of your turns. Whenever you reveal a land card this way, draw a card. Whenever you reveal a nonland card this way, Keranos deals 3 damage to any target.

    Rules

  • If the ability resolves, but the damage is prevented or redirected, the controller of the targeted creature will draw X cards, regardless of how much damage was dealt or what the damage was ultimately dealt to.
  • If the creature is an illegal target when Nin's ability tries to resolve, it won't resolve and none of its effects will happen. No player will draw cards.
  • If the damage is lethal, the cards are drawn before the creature is destroyed (the next time state-based actions are checked).
  • The effect is not optional. The creature's controller can't choose to draw fewer than X cards.
  • You may choose a value for X that's greater than the creature's toughness. Its controller will draw that many cards.

    Rules

  • If a spell or ability causes you to draw multiple cards, Niv-Mizzet's ability triggers that many times.
  • If dealing 1 damage to a permanent or player causes you to draw a card, perhaps because Niv-Mizzet is enchanted by Curiosity, you'll continue this loop until the loop is interrupted, perhaps by a player losing the game.
