Drown in Sorrowremoval$0.13This is the closest black sweeper at the same mana cost, shrinking the board and often killing early creatures outright. It also provides scry, making it a strong functional analogue for controlling aggressive boards.End the Festivitiesremoval$0.75A cheaper black-red-style pinger effect that also clears small utility creatures and tokens, but at a much lower power ceiling. It fills a similar role of sweeping low-toughness boards.Toxic Delugeremoval$7.62One of the best black sweepers, trading fixed -2/-2 for scalable life payment that can clear far larger boards. It serves the same broad control role and is a strict upgrade in many decks.Black Sun's Zenithremoval$0.35Another scalable black sweeper that weakens and eventually kills opposing creatures, with the added upside of being reusable through shuffle-back recursion. It overlaps heavily as a mass-creature-control spell.Languishremoval$0.34This is a direct black sweeper that gives all creatures -4/-4, playing a very similar role of clearing the battlefield. It is slightly stronger against medium-sized threats, though at a higher cost.Bontu's Last Reckoningremoval$0.60A powerful black board wipe that destroys all creatures, giving you a similar reset effect without the -2/-2 clause. The drawback of losing lands makes it a more explosive but riskier alternative.Crux of Fateremoval$1.60A classic black sweeper that destroys most creatures and can selectively spare Dragons. It serves the same control purpose as a board-reset sorcery, though it does not exile dying creatures.The Meathook Massacreremoval$26.44This is a premium black sweeper that can clear small creatures and also punishes future creature deaths. It overlaps strongly as both removal and a death-exile-style attrition tool, though at a much higher cost.
