"Find me cards equivalent to: Sinister Starfish"

Equivalent cards to Sinister Starfish (Creature, Black, Surveil 1 on tap) are:
1. Codex Shredder (Colorless, {T}: Mill
1. Similiar effect, but not a creature and not exactly Surveil).
2. Dream Eater (Blue, triggers Surveil 4 on ETB, not repeatable, not black).
3. Duskmantle Guildmage (Black/Blue, grants Surveil to spells and forced mills, but activated ability not identical).

Closest black creatures:

  • Narcomoeba (Blue, Surveil synergy, but not black and not a tap ability).
  • Gorging Vulture (Black, Mills 4 on ETB, repeatable only if flickered, not on tap).

Sinister Starfish is unique as a black creature repeatably Surveilling 1 with a tap ability. No true black direct equivalents. Burglar Rat (Black, ETB, not Surveil) is similar for self-mill/discard synergies.

    Flash Flying Surveil

    Rules

  • Dream Eater's reflexive triggered ability triggers even if you have fewer than four cards in your library to surveil.
  • Dream Eater's triggered ability goes on the stack without a target. While that ability is resolving, after you've surveilled, the reflexive triggered ability triggers and you pick a target nonland permanent to be returned to its owner's hand. This is different from effects that say "If you do . . ." in that you choose the target after having surveilled.
  • When you surveil, you may put all the cards you look at back on top of your library, you may put all of those cards into your graveyard, or you may put some of those cards on top and the rest of them into your graveyard.
  • You perform the actions stated on a card in sequence. For some spells and abilities, you'll surveil last. For others, you'll surveil and then perform other actions.

    Rules

  • Each time the first ability resolves, a delayed triggered ability is created. Whenever a card is put into an opponent’s graveyard that turn, each of those abilities will trigger. For example, if you activate the first ability twice (and let those abilities resolve) and then activate the second ability targeting an opponent, that player will lose a total of 4 life. Each card put into that player’s graveyard will cause two abilities to trigger, each causing that player to lose 1 life.
  • The delayed triggered ability created won’t trigger if a token permanent is put into an opponent’s graveyard.
  • The first ability considers each of your opponents. You don’t choose just one of them.
