"Find me cards equivalent to: Ritual of the Machine"

Equivalent cards to Ritual of the Machine in black that are sorceries and involve sacrificing a creature for control include:
1. Hijack – NOT equivalent, it's red.
2. Slave of Bolas – Multicolor (Blue/Black/Red), not mono-black.
3. Phyrexian Purge – Deals damage, not control.

Closest mono-black equivalents:

  • Victimize: Sorcery, black, but reanimates, not theft.
  • Call to the Grave: Not equivalent, it's an enchantment.

No other mono-black sorcery strictly matches Ritual of the Machine. It remains a unique card.
Reason: Black stealing creatures is rare, and almost always on this one card.

  • If a player controls no creatures, or each creature they control is a Zombie, that player does nothing when the first ability resolves.
  • If there is at least one creature on the battlefield at the beginning of the end step, the last ability won't trigger. If it does trigger, but a creature enters before it resolves, the ability won't do anything when it resolves. Call to the Grave's controller won't sacrifice it.
  • In a Two-Headed Giant game, Call to the Grave will trigger twice during each team's upkeep, once for each player. Each of the two players will sacrifice a non-Zombie creature when the ability referring to that player resolves.

  • As Victimize resolves, you must sacrifice a creature if able. You can't change your mind and choose not to sacrifice anything.
  • If one of the targeted creature cards is an illegal target (for instance, because it has left your graveyard before Victimize resolves), you'll still sacrifice a creature and put the other card onto the battlefield. If both are illegal targets, Victimize won't resolve. You won't sacrifice a creature.
  • The creature you sacrifice isn't chosen until Victimize resolves. You can't return the creature you sacrifice because it will still be on the battlefield at the time targets are chosen.
  • You must choose two targets. You can't cast Victimize targeting only one creature card.
