Equivalent cards to “Shepherd of Rot” (Black, Zombie, repeatable life loss):
- “Chill to the Bone” (not equivalent, doesn’t match effect)
- “Gempalm Polluter” (Black zombie, causes life loss when cycled, but not repeatable on battlefield)
- “Plague Belcher” (Black zombie, causes life loss when other zombies die)
- “Diregraf Colossus” (Not equivalent, doesn’t cause life loss)
- “Vengeful Dead” (Black zombie, each time a zombie dies, all opponents lose 1 life; most similar effect, but triggers on death, not tapping.)
Best equivalents (same color and tribe, closest effect):
- “Vengeful Dead”
- “Cryptbreaker” (paying mana and tapping zombies deals life loss and draws cards)
Reason: These are black zombies that deal life loss to opponents based on zombies but not exactly the same tap-to-drain effect.
