"Find me cards equivalent to: Purple Pentapus"

Equivalent cards (color: Black, similar mechanics to Purple Pentapus):
1. Persistent Specimen

  • Can return from graveyard to battlefield; black and low cost.
    2. Gutterbones
  • Easy self-reanimation from graveyard for {1}{B}; creature must have left the battlefield.
    3. Bloodsoaked Champion
  • Recurs for {1}{B}, attacking restriction; black.
    4. Tenacious Dead
  • Returns itself by paying {1}{B} when it dies; black.

Why:
All are black creatures with recursion from the graveyard, similar to Purple Pentapus, though none surveil. Surveil is unique; closest in black would be Vesperlark (white) or Nightveil Sprite (blue) for top-deck manipulation, but for black recursion only, the list above fits best.

    Rules

  • The activated ability can be activated only if Bloodsoaked Champion is in your graveyard. Notably, if it attacks and then dies later in the turn, you can use its ability to return it to the battlefield, as its attack satisfies its own activation instruction.
  • Raid abilities care only that you attacked with a creature. It doesn't matter how many creatures you attacked with or which player, planeswalker, or battle those creatures attacked.
  • Raid abilities evaluate the entire turn to see if you attacked with a creature. That creature doesn't have to still be on the battlefield. Similarly, the player, planeswalker, or battle it attacked doesn't have to still be in the game or on the battlefield.
