Hey guys, I made this card to be the worst card, and I think there is little to no use for it. Can anyone think of a use for this card?

    What do I win? Is it a free round trip ticket to the bathroom?

    If you didn't Ante up. Ha.

    I put my answer on the card. I'd like my ticket now.

    I found a legitimate use for it! :D

    If you're playing a team game (specifically a type where the team can go on if someone dies, like in Emperor), and one or more of your allies has Blood Tyrant or Withengar Unbound out, you can sacrifice yourself so that they can hit harder.

    You can also exile it to cast Contagion or Unmask. (There's also Sickening Shoal, but I doubt you'd want to cast it at X=1 )

    With Platinum Angel on the battlefield, cast this at the beginning of any opponents' untap step to skip their turn.

    If you have Hive Mind and Platinum Angel on the battlefield, then your opponent will be given a copy of the spell already on the stack, so they won't be casting it. Then, their life total will be zero, and though the text that reads "you lose the game" won't affect them they will die from simply having 0 life after their copy of the spell resolves.
    (Note: I am not a rules expert and this might not actually work.)

    They don't lose the life, since they didn't cast it and it's an additional cost.

    I have a card that turns you into a planeswalker when you would lose the game.
