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?
-
"wight's social anxiety extends to inanimate objects and mere concepts" - dude, same
-
"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.
-
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.
-
My grandpa said Aragorn is the worst black Magic card.
-
“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.
-
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.
-
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
-
The worst part about Fatal Mutation is that it's a cool-sounding name, metal af art and quote are wasted on it
-
My man said "Chiminny" like Dick Van Dyke attempting a cockney accent.
-
Ill just say... One With Nothing + Hive Mind, hilarious. In fact, anything with Hive Minds ends up in a clusterfuck of hilarity.
-
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.
-
I can see a use for Blood Funnel in a Saproling deck. Since the reduced cost factors into kicker as well. It would make Saproling Burst, Migration, and Symbiosis far more cost effective.
-
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.
-
looks at hint of insanity Oh god, this is the counter card to my rat colony deck.
-
I actually see blood funnel as a cool work around, may put it in my Endrek sahr deck
-
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.
