Lets nominate some cards for being the best at what they do... badly!  lol

First I want to nominate the following card for confusing millions of Magic players everywhere! 

Longest and Most Confusing Card Text!



Seriously, look at that thing!  If anyone played this card I would just concede!  Read War and Peace or play this card!  I dunno!  I feel that War and Peace would be slightly more fulfilling and take a shorter time to understand than a Shakespear piece without cliffnotes than this card! 

My next nomination is for artwork! 

Now, when you buy a Magic card I'm sure that you aren't thinking art, but after seeing millions of pieces you've come to the conclusion that chances are they're going to do an ok job! 

Ugliest Card Art



Now Phil isn't known for the best artwork, but we're pretty sure he got stuck on the funny papers for this piece. 

The last being the one that really got me.

The Dyslexic card text award nominee is!



I just want to say, "what!" everytime I read it! 
Seriously, how hard was it to just write, Target player draws 3 cards unless a player takes 5 damage.  Hmmmm?

 

What is your nominees!

For longest and most confusing card you forgot the other nominee:

The length is readable, but to show just how confusing the card is, there was an entire article written about how it worked in the game.

@ Lim-Dul

Knowledge Pool doesn't come close to the others.

@ Lin Sivvi

It's in German. That doesn't count.

@ Cosine

Your picture didn't show up.

@ Ginger

You can't really count Unglued/Unhinged. Also, I do believe that we are choosing bad things about cards, not good things. 2 Galvanizers and 2 mana Myrs aren't the best way to go. Bloom Tender and Freed from the Real is WAY better. I agree with Emrakul, All is Dust, Worldslayer, and Hellkite. Not the others though.

It's been ousted since, but it was junk when it came out.

green speed decks often used rust .

If they got lucky, they would go first, and play nothing but a forest (saving for a grizzly bear) the opponent would drop a mountain and a black lotus, they go to sacrifice the black lotus, but you pull rust, stopping them.

Oh, I know they used them, but I've always found it weak to stop a mana source because you're delaying the inevitable.  It's like putting a sand bag down for a tsunami, but remove the water and you have nothing to worry about. 

Which reminds me.  Alaska is under a Tsunami warning right now.
