"Find me cards equivalent to: Vile Deacon"

Equivalent cards to Vile Deacon (B, Creature — Human Cleric, attacks, gets +X/+X for Clerics):
1. Vile Deacon itself (your reference)
2. Dusk Charger (B, attacks, but gets +2/+2 if you have City's Blessing—similar, but not for Clerics)
3. Acolyte of Xathrid (B, Human Cleric, doesn't get +X/+X, but relates to Cleric synergy)
4. Nighthawk Scavenger (B, attack-based scaling power, but based on card types in graveyard)

Closest real equivalent: Vile Deacon is unique in getting +X/+X for Clerics when attacking. No other Black Cleric directly replicates this ability. Best alternatives focus on tribal synergy or attack-based power boosts.

    City's Blessing

    Abilities/Keywords

    Ascend

    Rules

  • A permanent is any object on the battlefield, including tokens and lands. Spells and emblems aren't permanents.
  • Ascend on a permanent isn't a triggered ability and doesn't use the stack. Players can respond to a spell that will give you your tenth permanent, but they can't respond to getting the city's blessing once you control that tenth permanent. This means that if your tenth permanent is a land you play, players can't respond before you get the city's blessing.
  • If you cast a spell with ascend, you don't get the city's blessing until it resolves. Players may respond to that spell by trying to change whether you get the city's blessing.
  • If you control ten permanents but don't control a permanent or resolving spell with ascend, you don't get the city's blessing. For example, if you control ten permanents, lose control of one, then cast Golden Demise, you won't have the city's blessing and the spell will affect creatures you control.
  • If your tenth permanent enters the battlefield and then a permanent leaves the battlefield immediately afterwards (most likely due to the "Legend Rule" or due to being a creature with 0 toughness), you get the city's blessing before it leaves the battlefield.
  • Once you have the city's blessing, you have it for the rest of the game, even if you lose control of some or all of your permanents. The city's blessing isn't a permanent itself and can't be removed by any effect.
  • Some cards get power, toughness, and/or abilities once you have the city's blessing. If another card has an ability that triggers when creatures with certain characteristics enter the battlefield (such as Mentor of the Meek or Elemental Bond do), use the entering permanent's characteristics after you have the city's blessing to determine whether those abilities trigger. This is true even if the entering permanent is your tenth permanent.

    Deathtouch Flying Lifelink

    Rules

  • Card types that can appear on cards in a graveyard include artifact, creature, enchantment, instant, land, planeswalker, and sorcery. Legendary, basic, and snow are supertypes, not card types; Vampire and Rogue are subtypes, not card types.
  • Nighthawk Scavenger counts card types, not cards. If the only card in your opponents' graveyards is a single artifact creature card, Nighthawk Scavenger will be 3/3. If the only cards in those graveyards are ten artifact cards and ten creature cards, Nighthawk Scavenger will still be 3/3.
  • The ability that defines Nighthawk Scavenger's power applies in all zones, not just the battlefield.
