"Find me cards equivalent to: Ob Nixilis's Cruelty"

Equivalent black instants (type='Instant', color='B') similar to Ob Nixilis's Cruelty are:
1. Defile — Cheaper but needs Swamps to scale (gives -X/-X).
2. Bake into a Pie — Destroys a creature and makes a Food (costs more mana).
3. Eat to Extinction — Exiles creature or planeswalker, surveil 1 (more versatile, 4 mana).
4. Go for the Throat — Destroys nonartifact creature (doesn't exile, but similar removal).


Reason: None are exact, but all are black instants that remove creatures, some with exile. Ob Nixilis's Cruelty is unique for its -5/-5 and exile clause.

    Rules

  • Food is an artifact type. Even though it appears on some creatures, it's never a creature type.
  • Some spells and abilities that create Food tokens may require targets. If each target chosen is an illegal target as that spell or ability tries to resolve, it won't resolve. You won't create any Food tokens.
  • Whatever you do, don't eat the delicious cards.
  • You can't sacrifice a Food to pay multiple costs. For example, you can't sacrifice a Food token to activate its own ability and also to activate Maraleaf Rider's ability.
