It's a fundamental truth of being a #MagicTheGathering player that you end up with a terrible pet card you always wish you could make do good things.

Back in Lorwyn/Alara standard I had a Glaze Fiend eggs deck that was sweet, but not nearly sweet enough to complete with Faeries and Jund.

What's your terrible pet card? (Don't try to lie to me, you have one.)

@Fruan I was introduced to magic via pauper, and one of the first decks I brewed was a temur control list featuring this as its wincon. spikeshot is currently the worst card in my ghyrson deck and forced adaptation is in both lila and tayam

@biolard I don't know much about pauper, but that honestly looks pretty sweet.

@Fruan its not the worst deck I've ever made but as it turns out, making your wincon something that dies to every removal spell in the format and has to sit on the board unanswered for 4 or 5 turns to start being a threat is not good deckbuilding
