AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Shell Skulkin

Equivalent cards to Shell Skulkin (colorless artifact creature, grants persist):

  • Cauldron of Souls (gives persist to creatures)
  • Myr Retriever (artifact creature, graveyard recursion)
  • Salvage Titan (artifact synergy and recursion)


Reason: These are colorless artifact creatures or artifacts offering similar recursion or persist/graveyard value. None are an exact match, but they achieve related effects in artifact decks.

  • If a nontoken creature that gains persist this way is put into a graveyard, that card will be returned to the battlefield with a -1/-1 counter on it. However, because it’s a new object with no relation to its previous existence, the returned creature will not have persist.
  • If a creature with persist stops being a creature, persist will still work.
  • If a creature with persist that has +1/+1 counters on it receives enough -1/-1 counters to cause it to be destroyed by lethal damage or put into its owner’s graveyard for having 0 or less toughness, persist won’t trigger and the card won’t return to the battlefield. That’s because persist checks the creature’s existence just before it leaves the battlefield, and it still has all those counters on it at that point.
  • If a permanent has multiple instances of persist, they’ll each trigger separately, but the redundant instances will have no effect. If one instance returns the card to the battlefield, the next to resolve will do nothing.
  • If a token with no -1/-1 counters on it has persist, the ability will trigger when the token is put into the graveyard. However, the token will cease to exist and can’t return to the battlefield.
  • If multiple creatures with persist are put into the graveyard at the same time (due to combat damage or a spell that destroys all creatures, for example), the active player (the player whose turn it is) puts all of their persist triggers on the stack in any order, then each other player in turn order does the same. The last trigger put on the stack is the first one that resolves. That means that in a two-player game, the nonactive player’s persist creatures will return to the battlefield first, then the active player’s persist creatures do the same. The creatures return to the battlefield one at a time.
  • The persist ability triggers when the permanent is put into a graveyard. Its last known information (that is, how the creature last existed on the battlefield) is used to determine whether it had a -1/-1 counter on it.
  • When a permanent with persist returns to the battlefield, it’s a new object with no memory of or connection to its previous existence.

    Rules

  • Casting Salvage Titan by paying its alternative cost doesn't change when you can cast it. You can cast it only at the normal time you could cast a creature spell.
  • To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you're paying (such as Salvage Titan's alternative cost), add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The mana value of the spell remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.
  • You may activate its second ability only if Salvage Titan is in your graveyard. To pay this ability's cost, you may exile any three artifact cards from your graveyard—including Salvage Titan itself. If you exile it to pay the cost, however, it won't be returned to your hand when the ability resolves.
