Overused Cards in EDH
Posted: Wed Oct 02, 2019 5:11 am
(This thread is basically a reverse of the other thread I posted on here a while back)
What are some cards you are tired of seeing in EDH? I'm talking about the cards that hit the table and just make you roll your eyes out of sheer instinct. Maybe it's a card you think is overrated and never really lives up to its own hype. Maybe it's a great card that's been stripped of all it's "coolness" factor because everyone and their mother seems to be running it. Or maybe it's a card that just personally enrages you to your core for a reason you can't quite put into words. Either way, this is a thread to talk about those cards!
I'll start with one that might ruffle a few feathers: Cyclonic Rift|RTR
I despise this card. If I had a lighter and enough time I would burn every printing of this card in existence and throw the remains into the trash where they belong. I'm not here to argue whether or not this card is banworthy, cause that's not the point of this thread. I'm just sick of having to sit down against a blue deck knowing that at some point in the game there will be at least one (if I'm lucky) Cyclonic Rift|RTR cast and there isn't a damn thing I can do about it. As a green player it infuriates me to no end. Maybe if wizards printed more ways to effectively combat mass bounce OUTSIDE of blue it wouldn't be so bad. But for now, this card can go straight to hell as far as I'm concerned.
