"Find me cards equivalent to: Ob Nixilis of the Black Oath"

Equivalent cards to Ob Nixilis of the Black Oath (mono-black planeswalkers, can be commander, or similar life-drain/demon/token effects):
1. Liliana, Heretical Healer / Liliana, Defiant Necromancer

  • Legendary mono-black planeswalker, can be your commander. Focuses on graveyard/life rather than token generation.
    2. Kaya, Ghost Haunter (if you consider Kaya the Inexorable, color identity includes white, skipped here)
  • No other legendary mono-black planeswalker that can be commander by default except Ob Nixilis of the Black Oath and Liliana, Heretical Healer.
    3. Sorin, Lord of Innistrad
  • Closest mono-black adjacent (technically Orzhov), makes lifelink tokens and provides emblem, but color identity isn't mono-black.

For the most part, Ob Nixilis of the Black Oath is unique for being a mono-black planeswalker that can be a commander and makes demon tokens. Only Liliana, Heretical Healer is truly equivalent in legendary, mono-black, and commander-legal planeswalker status.

Summary:
Closest equivalent is Liliana, Heretical Healer (transforms into a mono-black planeswalker), all others differ by color or abilities.

    Spirit Kaya The Inexorable Emblem

    Rules

  • If a nontoken creature gains more than one instance of that triggered ability, each of them will trigger separately. You can return the card to its owner’s hand only once, but you’ll create a Spirit creature token for each of those abilities.
  • If the spell has {X} in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as the value of X.
  • If you cast a spell “without paying its mana cost,” you can’t choose to cast it for any alternative costs. You can, however, pay additional costs, such as kicker costs. If the card has any mandatory additional costs, those must be paid to cast the spell.
  • If you own a face-down card in exile, Kaya’s emblem will let you cast it only if you can look at the card (and only if it’s legendary). If you aren’t allowed to look at the card, you can’t cast it, even if you know it’s legendary.
  • The ghostform counter added by the first ability doesn’t have any functional importance. It’s there to remind you of the ability the creature gains. Even if that counter is removed from the creature, the triggered ability it gains will still work.

    Rules

  • Haunting a creature has no inherent rules meaning. It’s a designation that other effects (such as those of Kaya’s emblems) may refer to.
  • If Kaya somehow leaves exile, the creature is no longer haunted. Similarly, if Kaya isn’t exiled by her first ability as it resolves, the creature isn’t haunted.
  • Kaya returns to the battlefield immediately after the creature she haunts leaves the battlefield. When she returns this way, she’s considered a new object and enters with her starting loyalty counters.
  • Kaya’s emblems can target a creature that’s haunted by anything, not just by Kaya.

  • If a creature with undying is destroyed by Sorin, Lord of Innistrad's third ability, the undying ability will trigger, but the creature will already have been returned to the battlefield by Sorin. The undying ability won't do anything when it resolves.
  • The emblems are cumulative. If you get two of them, creatures you control will get +2/+0.
  • You can target a token creature with Sorin, Lord of Innistrad's third ability, but it won't return to the battlefield.
