"Find me cards equivalent to: Phyrexian Vatmother"

Equivalent cards to Phyrexian Vatmother (black, infect creatures, downside effect):
1. Phyrexian Crusader – Black, Infect, protection from red and white.
2. Hand of the Praetors – Black, Infect, buffs other infect creatures.
3. Plague Stinger – Black, Infect, flying.
4. Core Prowler – Colorless, but close; Infect, proliferate when dies.


Reason: Black creatures with infect often have a drawback or extra ability, like Vatmother's poison counter. Most do not have the same exact upkeep downside, but these are closest in function.

    Infect Proliferate

    Rules

  • An ability that triggers "Whenever you proliferate" triggers even if you chose no permanents or players while doing so.
  • If a permanent ever has both +1/+1 counters and -1/-1 counters on it at the same time, they're removed in pairs as a state-based action so that the permanent has only one of those kinds of counters on it.
  • If a player or permanent has more than one kind of counter on it, and you choose for it to get additional counters, it must get one of each kind of counter it already has. You can't have it get just one kind of counter it already has and not the others.
  • Players can respond to a spell or ability whose effect includes proliferating. Once that spell or ability starts to resolve, however, and its controller chooses which permanents and players will get new counters, it's too late for anyone to respond.
  • To proliferate, you can choose any permanent that has a counter, including ones controlled by opponents. You can choose any player who has a counter, including opponents. You can't choose cards in any zone other than the battlefield, even if they have counters on them.
  • You don't have to choose every permanent or player that has a counter, only the ones you want to add another counter to. Since "any number" includes zero, you don't have to choose any permanents at all, and you don't have to choose any players at all.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Infect

    Rules

  • A player who has ten or more poison counters loses the game. This is a state-based action.
  • Damage from a source with infect affects planeswalkers normally.
  • Damage from a source with infect is damage in all respects. If the source with infect also has lifelink, damage dealt by that source also causes its controller to gain that much life. Damage from a source with infect can be prevented or redirected. Abilities that trigger on damage being dealt will trigger if a source with infect deals damage, if appropriate.
  • If damage from a source with infect that would be dealt to a player is prevented, that player doesn’t get poison counters. If damage from a source with infect that would be dealt to a creature is prevented, that creature doesn’t get -1/-1 counters.
  • Infect’s effect applies to any damage, not just combat damage.
  • The -1/-1 counters remain on the creature indefinitely. They’re not removed if the creature regenerates or the turn ends.
  • The last ability triggers only if Hand of the Praetors is already on the battlefield at the time you cast a creature spell with infect. Casting Hand of the Praetors itself will not cause its own last ability to trigger.
  • Whenever you cast a creature spell with infect, Hand of the Praetors’s last ability triggers and goes on the stack on top of it. It will resolve before the creature spell does.
