Worst card in Magic

[dahcmai]

You know it's been a long time since I saw a thread like this.

Probably a reason for that, but there's been so many changes anymore that a lot of the same old stuff isn't true anymore. So I couldn't resist.

I used to think Sorrow's Path was the worst. It's a crappy land that doesn't even tap for a colorless. What's it's ability you ask? Oh you can re-arrange two of the opponents blocking creatures. Not so bad, at least it's ability is marginally useful in certain circumstances. Too bad it has a built in self-pyroclasm and Psychic Venom. But if you saw that stupid fun deck I made with it, you know that's it at least can be used in one way.

After that I picked Wood Elemental. You do get a whole 1/1 for 4 mana and a sacrifice of an untapped Forest! OMG amazing! I guess you do get something out of it. If you want to go balls to the wall, you may even get a 3/3 or so before you die to just about any deck. Truly epic.


Then a friend pointed out this gem.

Tahngarth's Glare

R Sorcery

Look at the top three cards of target opponent's library, then put them back in any order. That player looks at the top three cards of your library, then puts them back in any order.

So basically you get to re-arrange the other guy's top 3 cards. Then they get to do this to you? Well, shit that sucks. I can barely think of a situation I would like this.



I've heard there's even a worse card out there. Some creature that's sure to screw you over hard. Know it?

[nitewolf9]

Not a creature, but yeah...

[Isamaru]

Every card mentioned so far has at least A USE, so they're not the "worst"... Wood Elemental is the most useless suggested so far.

I'd say that by "Worst Card" you mean most useless, right?

[puppektion]

I dunno about you guys, but Renewal seems like total shit.

Seriously, WFT?

[Pinder]

Seriously, WFT?

I lol'd.

And yeah, Renewal seems strictly worse than Harrow in all the ways that matter.

[Maverick676]

Is this even a contest?

[puppektion]

oh, come on, one with nothing at least has a use. it gets you hellbent ;)

[Pinder]

oh, come on, one with nothing at least has a use. it gets you hellbent ;)

And maybe Thresh? Point is, I'm sure OWN (holy shit it spells out "OWN"!) has more corner cases where it has a use than say, Sorrow's Path.

[puppektion]

I've heard it works with the new Cheese Stands Alone...

I submit, for your viewing pleasure:



Epic win.


I know Im boarding at least 4.

[TheDarkshineKnight]

I think that's the winner.

[KillemallCFH]

Great Wall doesn't cost you a land drop.



Now that is the worst card ever.

I always do, just for that 3cc Merfolk from Homelands that pops up now and again.

[T is for TOOL]

I'm going to second Extirpate. It's worse than all of these others because people actually run it.

Homelands has no Merfolk. Was Seasinger what you were thinking of?

How does "bands with other" work again?

[rockout]

Squire at least blocks a turn 1 lackey. Give it some credit.

Edit: OMG it costs 1W. yep that seals it. Worst card ever. Squire.

Also, Moonlace is pretty bad and palemoon.
