"Find me cards equivalent to: Staff of the Death Magus"

Cards equivalent to Staff of the Death Magus (colorless artifacts that gain life from black spells or Swamps) are:

  • Pristine Talisman: Artifact, taps for colorless, gain 1 life (not specifically tied to black, but similar utility).
  • Clergy of the Holy Nimbus: Not an artifact, so not equivalent.
  • Shadowspear: Artifact, not related to life for black spells.
  • Filigree Familiar: Artifact, gains life on ETB (but not specific to black spells).
  • Ivory Cup, Crystal Rod, Tablet of the Guilds, and other Staff cycle cards (Staff of the Sun Magus, etc.) from M14 only work for their color (white, blue, Ravnica multicolor, etc.).

Closest direct equivalents are the other Staffs from the Core Set M14:

  • Staff of the Flame Magus (red),
  • Staff of the Wild Magus (green),
  • Staff of the Sun Magus (white),
  • Staff of the Mind Magus (blue).


Reason: Only the cycle of Staffs from M14 have the exact same triggered ability linked to specific color spells and basic land types. Most other artifacts either have broader life gain or different triggers.

    Rules

  • Because damage remains marked on a creature until the damage is removed as the turn ends, damage previously dealt to a creature with indestructible may cause it to be destroyed if Shadowspear's second ability resolves during that turn.
  • If a permanent enters the battlefield under an opponent's control with hexproof or indestructible after Shadowspear's second ability resolves, it won't lose that ability unless you activate Shadowspear's second ability again. The same is true if an opponent's permanent gains indestructible or hexproof after Shadowspear's second ability resolves.
  • You can activate Shadowspear's second ability whether or not it's equipped to a creature.

  • If you cast a copy of a card that’s a certain color, the appropriate Staff’s ability will trigger. However, if you copy a spell on the stack without casting that copy, it will not.
  • Most nonbasic lands don’t have basic land types, even if they produce colored mana. For example, Caves of Koilos is neither a Plains nor a Swamp. Having one enter the battlefield under your control won’t cause Staff of the Sun Magus’s ability to trigger.
