What do you think the most broken card in the history of magic is? My guess is either {Time Walk} or {Sink Hole}.
I'm not sire about it being completely broken, but I totally agree, {Sink Hole} seems pretty crazy.

Lol P9 is it's own version of OP.
P9 is the Power 9 and OP is just overpowered :P. I can't remember all 9 parts of P9 though

I've never seen its equal in sheer discard power.

Lol... {sink hole} is good but it's not in the same league as actual real broken cards like {tolarian academy}
That's a good one. I like {mana drain} also. OP! Broken!

You are right! I'll edit. Lol
I, feel, like... A GENIUS!!!!!!
Surprised no one has said {Skullclamp} yet.
{Tinker} ranks up there. Would need to pair up with a Hexproofed {Blightsteel Collosus} or sone other powerful artifact.

{force of will}
it isn't as broken as the others because it makes you lose card advantage. Yes, broken, but not as much to be one of the most
Um {Island}.
Duh
{Necropotence}, {Tinker} and P9 are OP.
The most broken card in the history of all of MtG:
🌟{Blacker Lotus}🌟
Literally broken (well ripped). 💩
My vote goes to {Brainstorm}
Probably not the most broken but it is up there.

{NECROPOTENCE}!!!!!!!
I dont get why its so good
Turn 1, {dark ritual}, {Necropotence}. You may now draw whatever you want. Card advantage is good, yo :P
That reminds me. {Dark Ritual} is pretty bonkers in my opinion

1 card >> 1 life
Especially in a color that has life gain.
To understand why {Necropotence} is so good, you have to undersfand why card advantage is so importanf. Assume two players have the exact same deck and both players have the same skill level. In order to increase your chance of winning, you need card advantage. With more cards in your hand you increase your chances to have and answer to your opponents moves. If you have more cards in your hand then you can also force your opponent into not being able to answer you.
with {Necropotence} you can refill your hand every single turn, and pick up cards like {Drain Life}. That'll offset life lost, and make you extremely difficult to beat. Cards that generate insane card advantage have been routinely abused and banned. ({Skullclamp}, {Jace, the Mind Sculptor}, Brainstorm} ect.)
All you have to do is get your opponent down to 0 life. Life is a resource and you can always win by 1.
{Tolarian Academy}?

At heart, Magic is a resource trading game. You trade cards for creatures, spells for cards, etc.
{Necropotence} basically is "Pay 1 life: Draw a card." What would you do - pay 2U for a {Divination} or pay 2 life?
Yes, the card is confusing and hard to grok. Just remember: It trades life for cards - and on a 1:1 ratio that's very good.
Okay just think about it: {Sign in Blood} sees a lot of standard play. It is a pretty decent draw spell (and one of the only ones black has :().
Now think of casting sign in blood for free whenever you want!!!!

The effect is actually good in Commander in black decks because card advantage. The problem with it is that {Ambition's Cost} is 1 less.
