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?

@jud6ment 7 ай бұрын

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.

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.

@WookieRookie 7 ай бұрын

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.

@noonie6872 7 ай бұрын

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."

Reclusive wight could have been a serviceable card if it had haste, since you only sacrifice it at the beginning of your upkeep. It could have been a creature made to just be dropped, get some damage in, then it dies bext turn. It having summoning sickness means it would only be good in the first couple turns when you have nothing else you can do but that would require multiple cards that cab get you mana in the first couple turns. if youre gonna do that anyway you might as well play something else. if youre gonna do a turn 2 mana cheese why would you choose Wight over something else costing the same amount that doesnt have suicidal thoughts.

@Evan-ep5xn 2 ай бұрын

Honestly, you could use it in zombie reanimator decks that care about ETBs and/or deaths, since each time you get it onto/off the battlefield you get a trigger and it even has the good graces to sac itself on your next turn so you can do it all over again, which gets even better if you're using Rooftop Storm. It's not amazing, but at least you'd get a 4/4 blocker in the process of you recurring it for value.

One With Nothing is bad, but at least it's an interesting bad. It's not failing to do something it is supposed to, it is doing exactly what it is designed to for a cheap cost, better than any other card. That doesn't make it good, but I'd argue it still is at least a card that makes the game better since it's at least one you'll think about if for some reason you want to discard.

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.
