2 Cards Found

AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Starscream, Power Hungry

Equivalent cards to Starscream, Power Hungry (Black cards that become your monarch or interact with the monarch mechanic):

  • Throne of the Black Rose – Makes you the monarch when it enters the battlefield.
  • Custodi Lich – Makes you the monarch when it enters; triggers when you become monarch.
  • Palace Jailer (White, but close in function) – Also introduces the monarch, but not black.


Reason: These cards introduce the monarch, a central part of Starscream, Power Hungry's effect. Black does not have many direct analogs, so similar become monarch effects are used.

    The Monarch

    Rules

  • Abilities that trigger whenever you “become the monarch” trigger only if you aren't already the monarch. For example, if you are already the monarch as Custodi Lich enters the battlefield, its last ability won't trigger.
  • Being the monarch carries two inherent triggered abilities. “At the beginning of the monarch's end step, that player draws a card” and “Whenever a creature deals combat damage to the monarch, its controller becomes the monarch.”
  • If the triggered ability that causes the monarch to draw a card goes on the stack, and a different player becomes the monarch before that ability resolves, the first player will still draw the card.
  • The game starts with no monarch. Once an effect makes one player the monarch, the game will have exactly one monarch from that point forward.

    Rules

  • Auras attached to the exiled creature will be put into their owners' graveyards. Equipment attached to the exiled creature will become unattached and remain on the battlefield. Counters on the exiled creature will cease to exist.
  • Being the monarch carries two inherent triggered abilities. "At the beginning of the monarch's end step, that player draws a card" and "Whenever a creature deals combat damage to the monarch, its controller becomes the monarch."
  • If a creature token is exiled, it ceases to exist. It won't return to the battlefield.
  • If you're not the monarch as Palace Jailer's second ability resolves, the creature will be exiled until there's a new monarch and that player is one of your opponents. The creature won't immediately return just because an opponent is the monarch.
  • In a multiplayer game, if the monarch leaves the game, the player whose turn it is immediately becomes the monarch. If the player whose turn it is has left the game, instead the next player in turn order becomes the monarch.
  • Palace Jailer leaving the battlefield won't cause the exiled creature to return. The game will continue to watch for the next time an opponent becomes the monarch.
  • The game starts with no monarch. Once an effect makes one player the monarch, the game will have exactly one monarch from that point forward.
  • The opponent that controlled the exiled card doesn't have to be the same opponent that becomes the monarch in order to cause that card to return to the battlefield. Any opponent becoming the monarch will cause the card to return.
