Undying Maliceprotection$7.00Very close functional substitute: a 1-mana black instant that gives a creature a death-triggered return to battlefield effect for the turn, at the cost of exiling it if it would leave again.Feign Deathprotection$0.94Nearly the same role and cost, with a slightly different return clause that still saves a creature from dying and brings it back tapped with a counter.Supernatural Staminaprotection$0.21One-mana black creature protection that effectively functions as a save spell, returning the creature tapped and giving a small combat-oriented bonus.Not Dead After Allprotection$1.64A one-mana black version of a death-replacement trick that returns the creature tapped and adds a bonus when it comes back.Kaya's Ghostformprotection$1.13Protects a creature or permanent by bringing it back after dying or being exiled, filling a similar recursion/protection role in black.Undying Evilprotection$0.47A low-cost black save spell that gives a creature undying, functioning as a combat or removal protection piece similar to Malakir Rebirth.Malakir Cullbladeutility$0.12While not a protection spell, it plays in the same black creature-centric shell and supports repeated creature deaths and returns in grindy decks.Brought Backrecursion$2.00A stronger recursion effect that returns permanents that died this turn, serving as a higher-end analogue for death-replacement value.
