"Find me cards equivalent to: Ransack the Lab"

Equivalent cards to Ransack the Lab (Black, Sorcery, similar effect):

  • Ransack the Lab (your example)
  • Grisly Salvage (BG, but similar effect with creature/land restriction)
  • Night's Whisper (B, draws cards, but does not fill graveyard)
  • Shred Memory (B, transmute and graveyard interaction)
  • Read the Bones (B, digs and draws, minor difference)
  • Sign in Blood (B, draws, less graveyard interaction)
  • Siege Zombie (Not equivalent, as it's a creature, not sorcery)

Closest true equivalent: Ransack the Lab is unique among monoblack sorceries. Nothing else matches exactly, but Read the Bones is functionally closest. Most effects with precise deck digging and graveyard fill are in green/black (e.g., Grisly Salvage).

    Scry

    Rules

  • Scry appears on some spells and abilities with one or more targets. If all of the spell or ability's targets are illegal when it tries to resolve, it won't resolve and none of its effects will happen. You won't scry.
  • The loss of life is part of the spell's effect. It's not an additional cost. If Read the Bones doesn't resolve, you won't lose life.
  • When you scry, you may put all the cards you look at back on top of your library, you may put all of those cards on the bottom of your library, or you may put some of those cards on top and the rest of them on the bottom.
  • You choose how to order cards returned to your library after scrying no matter where you put them.
  • You perform the actions stated on a card in sequence. For some spells and abilities, that means you'll scry last. For others, that means you'll scry and then perform other actions.
