Night of Souls' Betrayalremoval$1.73Provides a similar -1/-1 effect to shrink opposing creature swarms, but as a permanent it keeps applying every turn. It is stronger in token-heavy matchups and as a long-term board control piece.Cry of the Carnariumremoval$0.15A black sweeper that weakens and exiles small creatures, often playing the same anti-go-wide role as Cower in Fear. It is especially effective against recursive creatures and lifegain shells.Infestremoval$0.08One of the closest analogs, giving all creatures -2/-2 until end of turn. It serves the same anti-aggro, creature-sweeper role at a slightly lower cost.Bontu's Last Reckoningremoval$0.60A black board wipe that clears creatures rather than shrinking them, but it fills the same defensive control slot against wide creature boards. It is a stronger reset at the cost of tempo.Toxic Delugeremoval$7.62A premium black sweeper that can often function like a scalable version of Cower in Fear, letting you choose the exact amount of creature reduction needed. It is much more flexible and commonly stronger.Languishremoval$0.34Another black sweeper aimed at clearing creatures with low toughness, similar to how Cower in Fear punishes token and aggro boards. It is a more reliable mass-removal option in many decks.Flaying TendrilsremovalBudget$0.03A black anti-creature sweeper that weakens small creatures and exiles them if they die, which is useful against recursive threats. It overlaps with Cower in Fear's role of stabilizing against creature swarms.Dead Weightremoval$0.04A cheap black removal option that helps answer early creatures individually instead of shrinking the whole board. It is a budget-friendly alternative when you want efficient black creature control.
