Tainted StrikefinisherBudget$1.94A black combat trick that can dramatically increase damage output at instant speed, often enabling surprise lethal turns like Hatred does. It’s cheaper and can also grant infect for an alternate kill condition.Berserkfinisher$789.99Similar all-in pump spell that can massively increase a creature’s power for a lethal attack. It’s more explosive and cheaper, though it has a green color identity and a downside at end of turn.InvigoratefinisherBudget$0.27A huge free pump spell that can enable surprise kills in the same way Hatred does. It’s not black and requires a life-gain alternate cost, but it fills the same one-shot lethality role.BonesplitterutilityBudget$0.24A cheap repeatable power boost that serves the same goal of increasing combat damage output, though over multiple turns instead of all at once. It’s a strong budget-friendly alternative for creature-based aggression.Grafted WargearutilityBudget$0.26Provides a large immediate power boost that can help push through lethal damage similarly to Hatred. It’s an equipment rather than an instant, but the damage amplification role overlaps well.Temur Battle RagefinisherBudget$0.26Another combat trick that converts a creature into a lethal threat in one attack, especially with already-large power. It’s red/green, but the burst-damage finishing role is very similar.Rush of VitalityprotectionBudget$0.09A black instant combat trick that increases combat impact, though with much smaller power gain. It’s a lower-cost black alternative if you want instant-speed surprise value.Night of Souls' BetrayalutilityBudget$1.73Not a direct analogue, but another black card that can help close games through life-total pressure and board manipulation. It’s a very different axis, but belongs to black’s more punishing game plans.
