    Not the most overcosted creature, but could rival Dripping Dead (which is at least in the Low 10)...




    It's a Goblin, which is good in itself...but I still won't be impressed if someone drops this off a first turn Lackey, which says enough about a six-mana-card.

    I dunno... it seems like Tempting Wurm sucks out of control. You play that and your opponent laughs his ass off as he now has 5 turns worth of cards out.

    Thank you for understanding.

    In a B/G discard deck, Tempting Wurm is pretty good. Once you know your opponent has nothing good/worth in his/her hand, Tempting Wurm shines.

    Re: Worst card in Magic

    A guy I play casual with actually has a cool Tempting Wurm/Endless Whispers combo that lets him do something akin to Flash/Hulk. Really cool to watch.

    If the card is reasonably priced and does something unique, it will have a use somewhere, at some time.

    @Georgjorge, yes I saw a guy packing Great Wall in fear of Righteous Avengers. He would not take it out, stating that Righteous Avengers had killed him with their unfair evasion. This was a long time ago. I think I was playing my Argivian Archaeologist/Chaos Orb deck at the time.


    Also, I want to renew my vote for Rapid Fire.

    WORST card in Magic? Anybody said Karplusan Giant yet? Or Deep Spawn...that was a stinker. I think Karplusan Giant wins that, though.

    Really? 'Cause both of them are bombs compared to pretty much everything that was mentioned in this thread. The Giant is a Primeval Shambler for two more mana, and Shambler was in 8th edition so acceptable by modern design rules. And Deep Spawn is practically Morphling's grand-daddy. I mean, did you read Wood Elemental?

    Re: Worst card in Magic

    Hey, milling yourself for two was scary back then, especially for people who spent the time to get ! Plus it tapped itself and timewalked itself, so it sucked wind.

    Yes. TWO MORE mana. For a 3/3. Even in Ice Age constructed that's bad.



    ...Great Wall at least can help vs. the DREADED GIANT SLUG

    ...Wood Elemental is that late game bomb you fear -- "What is in his deck? What will he do with his 15 forests on turn 25? /Cower!" EDIT: also, it's an Elemental... Champion it, baby!

    Wood Elemental has +1 +1 counters that help if you play before humility.
    Chimney imp is a flyer.

    So my vote is snowfall for worst card ever.

    Far from Worst Card Ever territory, but half a Pyroclasm for more is pretty shabby:

    Because simply dying to that removal, like almost every other creature did back then, is so much better, right?

    And I know self-milling is loathed by casual players (too bad, it's an interesting mechanic), but Deep Spawn is an optional trigger. You can get rid of it at any time if its 6/6, removal-proof body somehow fails to kill the opponent in a reasonable number of turns.

    Yes. TWO MORE mana. For a 3/3. Even in Ice Age constructed that's bad.
    Karplusan Giant: seven mana for a 3/3 that pumps for R.

    Wood Elemental: seven mana for a fixed 3/3, and you lose three Forests.

    Hmm.

    ...Wood Elemental is that late game bomb you fear -- "What is in his deck? What will he do with his 15 forests on turn 25? /Cower!" EDIT: also, it's an Elemental... Champion it, baby!
    Force of Nature was printed at the time: even if you do get to 15 Forests in play, the extra +3/+3 isn't worth the loss of Trample and, oh, losing three quarters of your mana base. And guess what, it's an Elemental as well!

    Or you could just have played Killer Bees, since "G: +1/+1 until EOT" is almost always better than Wood Elemental's ability, and flying is - sorry - the bee's knees.

    And I know self-milling is loathed by casual players When deep spawn was printed, self-milling in a deck with triple-blue was loathed by everyone, not just casual players. Look at the card pool for abusing the graveyard back then when you have some free time.

    if its 6/6, removal-proof body somehow fails to kill the opponent in a reasonable number of turns. like being tapped to activate that shroud?

    Karplusan Giant: seven mana for a 3/3 that pumps for R.

    Wood Elemental: seven mana for a fixed 3/3, and you lose three Forests.

    Hmm. We were comparing it to that guy. Plus, it's not -- you actually have to tap a snow land - no artifact, creature, effect mana applies

    Force of Nature was printed at the time: even if you do get to 15 Forests in play, the extra +3/+3 isn't worth the loss of Trample and, oh, losing three quarters of your mana base. And guess what, it's an Elemental as well! So, you're saying it's bad, I guess?

    I do love killer bees. Sorry you couldn't tell I was just messing with ya

    Re: Worst card in Magic

    My personal vote is for Disarm.

    You can argue that you can use it to remove equipment that would kill you, but when would you ever think of using a card that mentions equipment specifically when you can just use a bounce spell?
