I dreamed up a little contest I would like to put to the members of this board. Basically, the way it works is, I will list a card, and those of you who wish to participate will try to find a good use for that card, either in a combo with something else, or whatever unique way you can think of to make it useful. The trick is, I will be listing the worst, most useless cards I can find, whether they are cards with nasty drawbacks or just really not good cards. The suggestion has to be more than simply just "take the creature and pump it up to kill your opponent." We're looking for original and creative ways to make bad cards useful, so use your imagination. Unfortunately, I really have no prize to offer, but you will at least have my admiration if you can come up with real uses for some of these cards. The first card for which I would like to see a good use is Serpent Warrior. Click on the card name to view what it does. Good luck to you!

Not bad. Not the most effective way to gain 6 life, but it's still better than losing 3. Any other ideas?

The problem with that is the card reverses how you lose. You lose by having 20 or more life. so gaining that 6 life is actually twice as bad. I think that would make the card worse.

Unless you kill off the Transcendance (or better yet bounce it back to your hand) before you get too high in life.

In a threshold deck combine it with Crumbling Sanctuary and instead of loosing 3 life you loose 3 cards off of your deck. Add one of the creatures that allows cards from your graveyardback into your deck with threshold and you loose nothing.

The text of Crumbling Sanctuary says that "for each 1 damage dealt to you" so I don't know if it will work in this case.

Stack them how? And what does it do with the Librarian? I'm afraid I don't quite get it.
