Thrummingbirdutility$0.30It has the same combat-damage-triggered proliferate plan, making it the closest functional analog in a different color. It also evades in the air and keeps spreading counters on players and permanents.Norn's Choirmasterutility$16.36This is another evasive creature that proliferates when it connects in combat, serving the same counter-growing role. It is stronger in dedicated Phyrexian or counter strategies.Evolution Sageutility$2.31It is a premier proliferate engine, though it triggers from landfall instead of combat damage. In decks that make extra land drops, it often outpaces Grateful Apparition at spreading counters.Flux Channelerutility$4.21Like Grateful Apparition, it turns casting noncreature spells into proliferate, helping planeswalkers and other counters snowball. It fills a similar counter-support role in blue-based decks.Lae'zel, Vlaakith's Championutility$1.90It does not proliferate, but it strongly enhances counter-based game plans by adding extra counters whenever you would put them on permanents or yourself. It is a common support piece for the same kind of deck.Ichor Ratsutility$1.46This creature also spreads poison counters through a triggered ability, functioning as a counter-distribution threat. It is a different axis, but it plays a similar role in incremental counter-based pressure.Inexorable Tideutility$0.93This is a high-end proliferate payoff that repeatedly grows counters as you cast spells. It is much more expensive, but it occupies the same proliferate-support slot in slower decks.Tekuthal, Inquiry Dominusutility$1.81It supercharges proliferate by doubling those triggers, making any proliferate source much more explosive. While not the same card type or cost, it supports the same strategy and is a major upgrade in dedicated builds.
