"Find me cards equivalent to: War Elemental"

Equivalent cards to War Elemental should be red creatures, preferably Elementals, that care about damage dealt to opponents and grow with +1/+1 counters. Here are some close options:
1. Chandra's Phoenix — Recurs when opponents are dealt damage, but doesn't use +1/+1 counters.
2. Scourge of the Nephilim — Not red-only, and grows with damage taken, not dealt.
3. Thermo-Elemental — Not in print; no direct equivalent.
4. Dragonmaster Outcast — Red, but makes tokens rather than counters.
5. Ashling the Pilgrim — Red Elemental, can get +1/+1 counters, but by choice.

Closest fit:

  • War Elemental


Reason: Other red creatures may have synergy with dealing damage or growing, but none perfectly match both triggers of War Elemental. Ashling the Pilgrim is the closest for counters, but she doesn’t match on opponent-damage triggers. Chandra's Phoenix cares about opponent damage but interacts through recursion.

No true direct equivalent exists; War Elemental remains unique.

    Rules

  • "That much damage" refers to the number of +1/+1 counters removed from Ashling the Pilgrim. Since the counters are removed, it's likely that the damage will kill Ashling.
  • Ashling the Pilgrim's ability counts resolutions, not activations. Any such abilities that are still on the stack won't count toward the total.
  • When the ability resolves, it counts the number of times that same ability from that this creature has already resolved that turn. It doesn't matter who controlled the creature or the previous abilities when they resolved. A copy of this ability (created by Rings of Brighthearth, for example) will count toward the total. Abilities from other creatures with the same name don't count towards the total. Neither does an ability that's been countered.
  • You get the bonus only the third time the ability resolves. You won't get the bonus the fourth, fifth, sixth, or any subsequent times.

    When this creature enters,sacrificeit unless an opponent was dealt damage this turn. Whenever an opponent is dealt damage, put that many +1/+1 counters on this creature.
