Top 10 Worst Black Cards in All of Magic
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 มิ.ย. 2024
- Black is mostly known for it’s removal, discard, and draw power allowing it to function as a powerful midrange color, or its unique effects letting it help out combo decks. Of course, sometimes this doesn’t work out. Sometimes the cards are overcosted, sometimes the effects are just bad, but either way, none of these cards have ever been worth playing. Today, we’re going to look at the biggest misses black mages have ever had to put up with.

One With Nothing is one of the worst black cards, but it is also one of the *best* worst black cards because unlike other bad cards, you don't ever forget about it or completely dismiss it. How often do you see people talking about how Chimney Imp has a use when a new set drops?
One With Nothing is the worst black card with literally no use at all but people pretend it does. Breakthrough does the same thing at one cost but draws you an additional 4 first. Putrid Imp does this same effect while providing a creature at common rarity. Both these examples also let you discard your whole hand but still keep one or two if you really need to. Also, Lion Eye Diamond costs zero and adds 3 mana if you go further formats back.
Someone watched Rystic Study.
Also as the other reply pointed out, it’s not even best at what it does. If you want to discard a bunch you can do it a lot better. It’s like saying Wood Elemental is a good bad card. It’s not even best at a bad thing, it’s bad at being bad.
Danger!, Dark World, Tearlaments and the Ishizu cards would love One With Nothing
@@MABfan11I have yet to see a Wave Motion Inferno in these decks.
One with Nothing is top in ADW :o
"wight's social anxiety extends to inanimate objects and mere concepts"
- dude, same
I felt this
A friend and I once came up with a theoretical Weird Al Yankovic Secret Lair. We both wanted to reskin something as "Dare To Be Stupid". After a moment of thought, we both realized One With Nothing was a perfect fit.
I’m curious now about the rest of the cards.
@@LevelUpLeo Here's what we came up with:
Minsc and Boo, Timeless Heroes - "Weird Al and Harvey, Best Pals"
Aetherworks Marvel - "The Hardware Store"
Crainial Extraction - "Like A Surgeon"
Field of the Dead - "Albuquerque"
One With Nothing - "Dare To Be Stupid"
Bonus Card
Dismiss - "This Card's Just Six Words Long"
"Chimney Imp can barely trade with anything around its mana cost"
Hey! Chimney Imp can trade with Bog Hoodlums if it loses the clash! That's a trade UP.
"People will say no creature can be the worst because it can always chump block."
I've never before felt so seen.
“Regeneration is a niche form of protection that has since been phased out”
So you are telling me it is going to phase in at the beggining ofthe next upkeep, got it
Blood Funnel actually sees a lot of play in Mishra, Artificer Prodigy EDH deck, where it's just pure upside.
One with Nothing also has a funny and janky combo with Barren Glory and any instant that returns any number of permanents into your hand.
I was gonna say I can see it working pretty well with a rat token commander deck, or with board wipes
My grandpa said Aragorn is the worst black Magic card.
That's the most clever comment I've seen in a while
🤣
My man said "Chiminny" like Dick Van Dyke attempting a cockney accent.
"Bro-beat" 🤣
Ill just say... One With Nothing + Hive Mind, hilarious. In fact, anything with Hive Minds ends up in a clusterfuck of hilarity.
“Good to make opponents play with hive mind” means “card so bad, forcing your opponents to play it can win you the game”
@@pitmaster226 Its no the same notes of "That would be lovely on Jon Irenicus"
No TOMBFIRE? B for a sorcery that exiles all Flashback spells in a players graveyard is so niche, especially because Tormods crypt costs 0 mana and does the job better
Blood Funnel in an Undying deck. Have a way to shuffle the Undying +1/+1 counters, and Blood Funnel becomes all benefit.
Cheaper spells, +1/+1 counters, removal of problematic auras. This seems like a card that a deck should be built around, but it's nowhere near the 10th worst black card ever.
I could see Blood Funnel being used along side stuff that make your spell not be countered. There have been a few black removal cards in the last few years that could benefit Blood Funnel. I don't think it would be a meta threat but could be interesting to try out. It could also be used against control decks by donating it to those players.
Was waiting for this one.
The worst part about Fatal Mutation is that it's a cool-sounding name, metal af art and quote are wasted on it
*looks at hint of insanity* Oh god, this is the counter card to my rat colony deck.
Danger!, Dark World, Tearlaments and the Ishizu cards would love One With Nothing
One With Nothing needs a partner card which says: "0 Mana: Until your next upkeep, whenever you cast a spell which only has the effect to "Discard your hand", draw X cards and gain X Mana where X is equal to the number of cards sent to the graveyard."
Is there a video on the best cards to use "Donate" with?
I think that with Hoodlums the design was to create a high mana value creature that can almost always win clashes. So they saw its cost like an upside, because this card should definitely cost around 3-4 mana, but not 6. However, this design is dumb.
The same design was used for Scornful Egotist, there are some cards in his set that care about high mana value among your permanents, so you could cheat an expensive creature in play way below the curve for 4 mana.
I know there exists a deck that plays One with Nothing, but its a deck where you discard you hand, mill your library and exile your graveyard so you pass the turn with nothing in play, in your hand, in your library and your graveyard.
I built a One With Nothing deck on Arena. It runs 2 copies.
The idea is that it runs a lot of cards with madness/discard triggers and easy GY recursion.
The win con of the deck is basically playing cards that Amass Zombies 2 for 1 mana on discard. Or tap, discard to make zombie tokens. Then you fling your hand with O.W.N to spam out a big threat and flood the board with 1/2 mana cost madness threats and discounted burn/removal.
If you don't draw the right hand, O.W.N becomes an easy discard itself.
... The deck is bad, but it IS playable casually and has a decent win rate against the starter decks. When it plays smoothly it feels really satisfying because it's like "Ah, yeeeeessssssss, I made the bad card work."
9:51 I want them to make a card actually called "bro beat" for when you beat your bros
🤨
Thanks for the cards to use for a Blim deck.
I actually see blood funnel as a cool work around, may put it in my Endrek sahr deck
Hint of insanity is a counter to decks that remove their maximum hand size and draw 15+ cards.
How about a combo of Blood Funnel and Young Pyromancer?
I started playing in Tempest so Urza's Saga was one of my very first sets. And yet even then I knew Reclusive Wight was a total stinker
In Ice Age they tried to make 2 cards that were like a milder less risky Lich. They came up with one of the worst cards ever (oath) and one of the best (Necropotence)
Pretenders Claim was also in a meta with Rebels, the assumption being that if you could toss it on something with Menace, they’d have to do all their searching before blockers were declared. That being said I’m 99% sure it never saw play in block or standard.
Bog Hoodlums, eh? I counter-propose... Dripping Dead! Which also has really great card-art. A big shame that it's wasted on such a terrible card!
1:04 Imagine running this on a golgari uncounterables deck. LOL
I relate to reclusive wight too much 😞
Everytime I hear people mention how one with nothing has some uses, I always think of putrid imp and how it costs the same, can attack and discard however many cards you want instead of everything.
How dare you to use 'black cards' and 'worst' in same sentence?! Black cards forever !! Anyway good vid as always 👍
i would love to play a legendary creature that's literally Blood Funnel as my commander. Or if it was a "background" enchantment.
9:56 I'm pretty sure Pretender's Claim could have been decent if it read "target player" as opposed to defending player. If you could put it on an opponents creature then whenever they attack you and you block you cluld tap all their lands. Not great but it would at least not be the worst at least
I see blood funnel, I almost consider Meren, but I'm also thinking that's not what she wants to be doing.
Why Kaervek's spite isn't in the list
Blood Funnel: Murmuring Mystic type cards and you are golden
Rats! Rats! We are the rats!
Gary is my favorite mono black creature
Your voice sounds like some youtuber named yugiohlog, are you two related by blood?
Wait until you meet DuelLog, who speaks about Pokémon cards
Oath could at least combo with cards that prevent you from sacrificing cards... All one card that does that that I can think of
For blood funnel is a copy of a spell created by storm even considered played?
It would still enter the stack, so yes, probably.
Google suggested otherwise.
No, when you put a copy of a spell on a stack it isn't considered to be cast unless there's some card out there with super bizarre wording I can't recall.
@@dstreetz91 ya I think it requires it to come from a physical card to be considered "played". Otherwise storm copies would count towards storm because they are spells.

Anyone interested in One With Nothing should check out Putrid Imp
Considering putting Hint of Insanity in one of my commander decks just to flex on the haters. xP
Chimney Imp is better than the rat in my Shirei, Shizo’s Caretaker EDH deck. Still just a meme inclusion though, lol.
Bad XYZ cards.
I am genuinely shocked there could be two black cards worse than One With Nothing. Though, I guess a card that makes you go minus the rest of the game if you take any damage is pretty shitty.
Funnily enough, if there's a 0 mana One with Nothing, it might actually only be considered to be worth playing. Adding cascade might make it too busted in cascade decks.
Meanwhile, if there's a One with Nothing that draws you cards first (like until your hand is full) and then discards your hand, that would be EXTREMELY broken. Because at that point, graveyard-fuel decks benefit from it.
The only conceivable way for One with Nothing to see worth is in dredge decks with Agadeem's Awakening by playing its land side to quickly dump your hand to get some good dredge mileage in case you bricked by mistake.
However, if One with Nothing is a Yu-Gi-Oh! card, then Dark World/Fabled decks will REALLY love it. As draw power plus cards like Overking Reign-Beaux, Genta, and Parl would heavily benefit from it.
In fact, I'd argue a donate for spells at cheap would help One with Nothing.
While it isn't instant speed, Yugioh does have a One with Nothing like card. It's Wave Motion Inferno.
@@dudono1744 but that card doesn't discard your hand. It just says send your cards from your hand to the graveyard.
@@kennydarmawan13 Oh, true.
There is a zero mana one with nothing if you want, it's called lion's eye diamond. You don't even manaburn for 3 anymore for using it this way in dredge decks.
@@dstreetz91 ah... true. But it's reserved. So, One with Nothing is the go-to when you really run out of options.
I think showing most of the cards in the intro is not a good idea Nizza. Bye bye surprises!
One with nothing would be good in madness decks
Amazing!😂
Where is kaerveks spite all time favorite bad card
blood funnel has such sweet art, too bad it's awful lol
Suprised you didnt say lich as well
I demand 'One With Nothing' be removed from the list. One With Nothing is a card so bad it follows into the 'good' category. It's a bit of a meme, but it's also a card designed to do 1 thing - discard your and. And it does it's job perfectly.
One with nothing is the best card actually
Worst black cards
