Forum:What is the weakest monster/card ever created?

Idk for some reason i thought about this idea. People here talk about the strongest duel monster, or best spell or trap card there is. But what is the most pathetic card ever made?

 * Thousand-Eyes Idol. 0 ATK and 0 DEF with no effect? With the ban of Thousand-Eyes Restrict, this card is totally useless! Except you love that card, don't put that card into your Deck! -- J0V1 P4RD0MU4N S14G14N the Keyblade Master 04:57, 30 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Yes, I think we all agree on this very monster. Coming in second should be, IMO, Larvae Moth, and tied for third the "useless" traps like An Unfortunate Report, or The Gift of Greed, and Foolish Revival, all of which give your opponent an advantage. Some of them can be exploited, but most of the time they are just darn useless. --Gadjiltron 05:10, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Throwing out Rare Fish. Not "weak" in the traditional sense, but its requirements are laughable. Rodtheanimegod4ever 05:17, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
 * The "useless" traps mentioned aren't useless at all: An Unfortunate Report combos great with Evil Hero Malicious Fiend, Volcanic Doomfire, Yubel/Staunch Defender, and more. The Gift of Greed is very good in a mill deck.  Foolish Revival is useful when your opponent has a clear field and you have a monster that has an effect that activates when it destroys a monster (the most obvious example being Horus the Black Flame Dragon LV6).  In terms of useless magic/trap cards, I would go with all the generic "Monster Type gets 200 ATK/DEF" equips from back in the day. Danny Lilithborne 05:49, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

Gate Guardian
Gate Guardian is by far the worst monster in Yu-Gi-Oh. This monster requires a player to tribute three level seven monsters to summon it. So, assuming you tribute two monsters for each of the three, then killed all three for gate guardian. You just destroyed 9 of your monsters to summon a monster that has no good effects and a high attack, consider if your opponent activates Bottomless Trap Hole on his summon. If that happens its safe to say that you already lost.Thestardustdragon 21:34, 3 September 2008 (UTC)


 * "Gate Guardian" can be fused with "UFOroid" into "UFOroid Fighter" for a 4950 ATK monster, or 9900 ATK if you use "Power Bond". -- Deltaneos (talk) 21:40, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

White Hole could be one of the worst it is useless in the advanced and all its good for is negating Dark Hole.Thestardustdragon 21:36, 3 September 2008 (UTC)


 * great point deltaneos about UFOroid i never thought of that. Speaking of "roid" monsters, can Necroid Shaman be supported by "roid" support cards? I legitimately want to try that at a tournament and see a judge ruling on it.Thestardustdragon 22:11, 3 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Yes, him, "Dark Jeroid" and "Magical Android" all count as "roid" monsters. Rescueroid's official rulings even refer to this. -- Deltaneos (talk) 22:27, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

One word, SHAPESNATCHERAngryjon 19:57, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

I hate it when people call cards useless. There is NO such thing as a useless card, especially when in combination with another card.
 * Yes, we all understand that. We can see this with old underlooked cards like Cold Wave seeing play all of a sudden. To sum this up, with all the better cards out there, you'd wonder why you'd be using the card when there's something better out there to use. At least until it gets banned or limited. --Gadjiltron 11:29, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

Neo Bubbleman is pretty useless in advanced.

Hey guys I believe that there's not such a thing as useless card. Every card has a reason to be created you may don't know the use of them that's why you said all these. I once thought of that too but in time I found cards that I couldn't use them before and now I really think that they worth it.


 * Fusionist can be used with Instant Fusion for a Synchro Summon, Thousand-Eyes Idol can be used as Crush Card Virus fodder, and almost all Spell and Trap cards can be Set to draw out a Heavy Storm or the like. Elemental Hero Neo Bubbleman is a Warrior and a Hero and can as such be searched to thin the Deck, returned with Fifth Hope, and fused into Elemental Hero Divine Neos. Thus, I believe Larvae Moth is the most useless card ever. Heck, Shapesnatch just SCREAMS for Limiter Removal and Chimeratech Overdragon. Plus, it's a Normal Monster... ^^

Larvae Moth
I think it's safe to agree that Larvae Moth is the most useless card ever. After all, in pretty much every argument, it comes down to 'no card is useless...except for Larvae Moth'. THIS CARD IS LEGENDARY IN ITS WEAKNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It may have crappy stats that prevent it from being able to hold its own in battle, but outside battle, at least the hairball can negate damage from one attack. Thousand-Eyes Idol can't even do that.

Anyways, I surprised no one put this up yet - there are multiple monsters with 0 ATK and DEF. I'm confused on why some people put Kuriboh or Skull Servant. This is called What is the WEAKEST monster/card ever made. If refering to a monster, the obvious choice is a monster with 0 ATK and DEF.

Cough...

There are some other "useless" cards, unless you chain Spell of Pain, Nature's Reflection, and/or Prime Material Dragon to them, like Destructive Draw or Destruction of Destiny. Destiny Hero - Departed is worthless to me, since you have to waste a few cards just to get him in the graveyard. Then you have to repeat the process over and over and over. It's much easier to just use Foolish Revival or something. --Drew-Gi-Oh! (talk) 14:35, September 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Destiny Hero - Departed is actually quite usefull, I run 3 of them on my Junk Warrior/Nitro Warrior deck, as it gives a 1000 atk boost to junk warrior, is a good target for both junk synchron and Road Warrior and an easy way into my opponent's lifepoints, some ways I have to put it on my graveyard are discarding it for Quickdraw Synchron effect, use it for a synchro summon or tribute it, I also get to use it to it's fullest since I run two copies of Imperial Iron Wall anyway to reuse Quillbolt Hedgehog and shield my graveyard from Macro decks HouseholdCatDeity (talk • contribs) 03:03, September 22, 2010 (UTC)

I think a worthless card would be Darkness Approaches. Discarding two is bad unless you need to for a Dark World Deck. Fallensilence (talk • contribs) 21:37, September 20, 2010 (UTC)

Card of Sanctity .. most worthless card in the TCG. Thorn of RosenYubel (talk • contribs) 15:14, September 24, 2010 (UTC)

Fallensilence, in your opinion no card is useless. It's a good point of view but we have to agree that if the only useless card needed to be literally useless, there would be no useless cards. A card that would have no effect other than removing itself from play or sending itself to the graveyard could power up Gren Maju Da Eiza or Chaos Necromancer, a card that coudn't be removed from your hand would power up Slifer, a card that coudn't be removed from your deck and whenever you would draw it you draw the next card in your deck instead would be good agaisn't mill decks and so there would be no useless cards. But I'm not trying to be agressive. I'm just showing my opinion. About you Thorn of RosenYubel, Card of Sanctity is a good card if you have no other card in your hand or field. Snetonobre (talk • contribs) 15:32, September 24, 2010 (UTC)

Ok Snetobre when I said that, it means that all cards are useful. Name one card that is never used in the TCG. That's right none of them. Even some people use illegal cards. And I agree about Card of Sanctity though. It's great for no cards on the field or hand. Fallensilence (talk • contribs) 22:57, September 24, 2010 (UTC)

Fallensilence, that's what I said. The difference is that you prefer to say that no card is useless, while I prefer to say that there may be some useless cards, even thought this is paradoxical (go see on wikipedia paradox). But, in fact, in my opinion the only useless card would be Thousand Eyes Idol. I know it's not literally useless, but I can't find nothing he can do that other cards can't do better. Still, your point of view is a valid argument and shoudn't be ignored. Resuming, I'm not disagreeing with you, but I have a different point of view. And that's all.

Well, apart from Thousand Eyes Idol, al of it's cards have great uses: The pieces of Exodia are required to two instant win conditions, and to the summoning of one of the most powerful monster cards ever; Aprentice Magician is of great use in a Spell Counter Deck; Mystic Tomato have the most varied uses being a searcher, but one of the best is to summon Yubel; and, hell, Sull Searvant have it's own deck! If not Thousand Eyes Idol than the symbol for uselessness is Key Mace, not Skull Servant. I understand your idea of creating a deck full of useless monsters, but considering all your spell/trap cards it could even win agains't some amateur decks. It seens you didn't understanded this topic: here we discuss the most useless cards, not cards that are situationally useless. Recently I have created a Beatdown deck where all monsters have an original attack and defense of 0, which doesn't mean it's weak. In fact, it's very powerful (I'm the master strategist, bow before me). By Snetonobre (talk • contribs) 15:10, October 12, 2010 (UTC)


 * What I was aiming for is a deck that had Thousand-Eyes Idol in it that COULD win. The other cards were in there because they suited the other support cards. It seems you don't fully understand the purpose of this deck, to show that Thousand-Eyes Idol is NOT fully useless. The other cards are there to support it (Its what decks do...) And its really funny to see an Exodia Arm beat down something xDDD
 * ALSO, Larvae Moth is the most useless card >:C Akyrix (talk • contribs) 21:41, October 12, 2010 (UTC)


 * First, how should I understand the meaning of the deck if you didn't explained what it was? Second, you should create a new topic to this Thousand Eyes Idol Deck, instead of doing it in this page. Third, I know Thousand Eyes Idol is not completely useless, but for every use you can think to him there's a card that could do a better work. Fourth, you and your opponent are dueling, both have 100 life points; he have in his field only a face up Final Attack Orders and no cards in his hand, while the only cards on your side of the field is are a Petit Moth equiped with a Cocoon of Evolution, and thought you have the entire moth evolutions in your hand, the only you can summon is Larvae Moth. By some way, probaly because last turn your opponent used A Feather of The Phoenix last turn, you and your opponent know that he will draw a monsters card and win the game if you do nothing. So what do you do? Will you summon the card you consider most useless? Even if you summoned a Thousand Eyes Idol he coudn't do no good. Considering this all, I must say that I aways talk so much that I forget if there's more to talk. So by now, I'll say good bye my friends. By Snetonobre (talk • contribs) 22:04, October 12, 2010 (UTC)

First he just want to do it for fun. Second, you should try it out then. Third, why don't you list them? Fourth it doesn't matter, it's his choice. So I just did all the work for him. :( Fallensilence (talk • contribs) 22:52, October 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * You make me looks like a villain. Y' know, you're the most confusing person I've ever seen. Sometimes you talk to me as if we hated each other (at least that's my impression), sometimes y' talk to me like we were friends. Also, I don't need to list them: any monster you control with more than zero attack would be better than Thousand Eyes Idol for any equip spell card that increases the monster attack. And a list would have more than two thousand cards. Also, please, stop talking to me this unfriendily way. I'm just expressing my opinion. By Snetonobre (talk • contribs) 16:11, October 14, 2010 (UTC)
