<p></p>

  <p>Creature tokens you control have vigilance and lifelink.</p>

<p>I'm looking for cards to buff my tokens, preferably enchantments but creatures will also suffice. By "buff" I mean: increase the statistics and/or add keywords to the tokens. Similar to the cards above, but the buffs may vary.</p>

# What are similar black and/or white permanents to Divine Visitation?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2019-07-08)

For my Commander deck I'm looking for black and/or white permanents that have similar mechanics to [Divine Visitation](http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Search/Default.aspx?name=%2b%5bDivine%20Visitation%5d) and [Teysa Karlov](http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Search/Default.aspx?name=%2b%5bTeysa%20Karlov%5d), respectively:

> If one or more creature tokens would be created under your control, that many 4/4 white Angel creature tokens with flying and vigilance are created instead.

> Creature tokens you control have vigilance and lifelink.

I'm looking for cards to buff my tokens, preferably enchantments but creatures will also suffice. By "buff" I mean: increase the statistics and/or add keywords to the tokens. Similar to the cards above, but the buffs may vary.

The [Advanced Search on Gatherer](https://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Advanced.aspx) may help a little.

For buffs that work when a creature enters the battlefield, search for ["creature enters the battlefield under your control"](https://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Search/Default.aspx?action=advanced&text=%20[%22creature%20enters%20the%20battlefield%20under%20your%20control%22]&color=%20![R]%20![U]%20![G]).

E.g. [Cathars' Crusade](http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Search/Default.aspx?name=%2b%5bCathars%27%5d%2b%5bCrusade%5d):

> Whenever a creature enters the battlefield under your control, put a +1/+1 counter on each creature you control.

For permanent buffs, search for ["creatures you control get" or "creatures you control gain"](https://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Search/Default.aspx?action=advanced&color=%20![R]%20![U]%20![G]&text=%7C[%22creatures%20you%20control%20get%22]%7C[%22creatures%20you%20control%20gain%22]):

E.g. [Benalish Marshal](http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Search/Default.aspx?name=%2b%5bBenalish%20Marshal%5d):

> Other creatures you control get +1/+1.

Others have already pointed out good abilities. I'll mention [Requiem Angel](http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Search/Default.aspx?name=%2b%5bRequiem%20Angel%5d), which states:

> When a non-spirit dies, you put a 1/1 spirit token into play instead.

When your [Divine Visitation](http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Search/Default.aspx?name=%2b%5bDivine%20Visitation%5d) is on the battlefield, this effect is replaced by creating a 4/4 flying angel token instead. Since it's not a spirit, when *that* creature dies, Requiem Angel's ability will trigger and create a new 4/4 angel in its place.

With [Teysa Karlov](http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Search/Default.aspx?name=%2b%5bTeysa%20Karlov%5d) out in addition to these cards, each time an angel dies your board creates two more angels.
