Hey, when I sometimes go through my cards, there are always some of these I never consider to play, cause they are that bad and useless, I mean, almost every card can be good in a specific deck, but some are just, that bad...
My three are:
Henchman's dagger :-? from TD!!!!
since errata: frenzy of arrows
Too Much Attention
which are yours? :)
-
First, such thread already exists (http://lotrtcgdb.com/forums/index.php?topic=1640.0).
Second, Too Much Attention can be used in a Fellowship block [Isengard] discard deck (they exist. I saw Kralik using one.)
Third, The Weight of a Legacy would be my choice in this matter.
-
Been done many many times mate and the consensus is usually Weight of a Legacy though i always think Men of Harad is shockingly poor.
-
did not know....
-
You are excused..hahaha, yeah Men of Harad is my altime worst card, when it comes to rares....

hmm, didn't I say, opinions should be mentioned, not rules what card I may not like and which I should like?? I think it is the last crap
-
How about some useless cards from the last 3 sets?
Elven Supplies
Frenzy of Arrows (after errata)
Miruvore
Scintillating Bird
Uruk Village Rager (too weak for site control)
-
Scintillating Bird ??
you really think, OK, with some elven cards it is really cool and it is from the holy set Ros, nothing is bad in it ;)
-
i made a deck that used elven supplies as one of its main tactics. i used 4x the faithful stone (i think pre-errata) to generate tons of tokens and then in the fellowship transferred those tokens onto the elven supplies. then arwen, she elf could use those tokens to beat the crud out of anybody, plus i could use them in emergency with any of my other elves.
-
I have started to hate Army of Haradrim, AI or not that is a wank card.
Nazgul Blade from BR... waste of time, except in Nazgul possession decks... which are a waste of time
-
"holy set" :lol:
As mentioned in other threads, I don't like Scintillating Bird because the Shadow player gets to decide. I nearly ran it in a tentacle deck (where discarding tentacles would be a good thing), but had trouble with not wanting to discard certain FP cards. Such a cool picture makes me want to use it, though.

The Faithful Stone for generation? That's a cool idea, MM! :gp: And it looks like adding the tokens themselves is unaffected by errata.

Guess it's like the Woodland Sentinel symptom. Even if a card totally fits the theme of a deck, there might be stronger cards out there that go straight to the point.
-
Oh man Woodland Sentinel sucks, and judging by the look on his face he knows it
-
lol :gp: for that!
-
Hey Lurtzy I bet I can guess your most hated card - Gruesome Meal ... ? Am I right?
-
Hahaha, no, but you were close - Orkish Camp is my least favorite card. I do fancy the picture in Gruesome Meal though mmmm.
-
where can i find the official errata to the faithful stone?
-
Officially, the 8/13/07 CRD (Archives has a sticky), but Kralik also notes errata in the online database (just follow the card link). :up:
-
oh yeah, nazgul blade, that sucks.

yeah, but in expanded, just play strength of arms.....then there would be no need for the supplies or the faithful stone \:D/
-
you have to discard it...
-
and its unique. 4x the faithful stone lets you pick up between 4-12 tokens on an average shadow turn. and there is no winning skirmish requirement. thusly, i like it.
thanks ES.
-
does anybody say, that you use the ability of the strenght of arms?? then you are right, but :suspect: you just win skirmishes and remove the tokens with arwen ... :uh-huh:
-
you have to win skirmishes
and as mm said its unique.
-
of course it is not the main card, but in an almost mono elven deck it rocks you win with events and got the tokens on an condition, that mister OP Gil-Galad can get back easily ;)
-
Scintillating Bird ??

scintillating bird is one of many "useful" (hahaha) cards of the [Gandalf] culture like
drawn to full height
ents marching
etc.
...and elves won't be helpful with this cards as the shadowplayer has got to choose... as most times the shadow player has got to choose by [Gandalf] cards (Treebeard Enraged Sheperd, brooding on tomorrow, Gandalf's staff, ash staff, and many others) - what a luck that saved from the fire or terrible and evil don't the shadowplayer have to choose... :lol:
- sorry guys... but this was something annoying me since a long time...
-

dito! that nazgul blade is as jordy said...
-
one of many "useful" (hahaha) cards of the [Gandalf] culture
yeah, like glamdring, orc beater glamdring, foe-hammer, the board is set, strange meeting, pallando, far-travelling one, gwaihir, the windlord, grimbeorn, beorning axe, radagast's herb bag, radagast, the brown, stern words...oh I see your point, hate these cards, too...#$&*@! so bad never would play that crappy beorning axe ;)
-
now, I guess you like all the cards above... ok... I also play many of them... but
stern words - clog your hand
with radagast the brown early in play you will probably lose the game due to radagast - because he works sometimes for your opponent...
radagast's herb is a possession - no artifact, so easily to discard - and in standard there are not so many useful spells as in expanded... if it's annoying you, discard it
beorning axe - a possession without ability... except on Grimbeorn... but otherwise, no ability... and [Gandalf] men definitely needs support!!! beorning axe is something that gives support, but even this is not enough to build a competitive deck!!!
grimbeorn - is good, if you can heal and cycle the minions - and if the maneuver phase is not skipped
pallando - it is one of my favorite cards - very good - nothing left to say! ;-)
strange meeting? well... sometimes not so bad, but very specific - so definitely no strong card
the board is set never works - [Gandalf] culture always gives that much pool, that the effect of this event always may be prevented
Glamdring - yes, both of them are very good! but also a poor possession... like a normal gondorian sword... it's easily discarded compared to narsil, anduril or aiglos for instance...
but now, back to topic - worst cards... common!
-
there you are mostly right....but if I would be focused to find real bad cards, you can find them in every culture ...
right back on topic
-
It is a condition, so you can use this more than once. If it would be an event, well, than it would be hard to defend the existing reasons for such a card.
