I see quale also mentioned her, but for me Gilnelise was the one card that tilted me the most. Having a universal 2pp card that was effectively either a removal+6heal, which is extremely efficient both in card number and pp usage, or a double removal + 4 heal, was just insane. Doesn't help I really disliked healing because I was worse at playing around them back then, but even now looking back she still feels like an insane card
Oracle and Augmentation should be top 2 imo. Ramping on T2 sets you ahead for almost no tempo loss, even more so if you can stabilize with 4pp next turn. It's less distinguished nowadays with global neutral ramp cards, but if we consider SV history as a whole, it's hands down the best card. As for Augmentation, despite supporting one archetype, it provides near infinite value so long as you don't brick your draws. During artifact portal's prime, it's the core engine that broke unlim format's ceilings with 50+ win streaks, 200k+ GM scores from several players. Also, honorable mention to Despair Reborn, which for its short time (before getting nerfed), gave every class a T4 win con.
I agree with a lot of this list, but for me I'd go with Vania, Crimson Majesty as the most insane wrath card printed. She also takes advantage of other gift of the bloodkin and Nightscreech in your hand
Sure, Skeleton Raider was THE meta defining card for like 3 and a half expansions. But imo mostly due to Cernunnos. At release he was just a meme, then with her and Suzy he turned into meta. I would say Augmentation Bestowal is the best card, at least in unlimited. In Rotation the card was okay, but it imediatly broke unlimited apart and turned the format into either hyper aggro or combo centric decks, because play for board was stupid against Artifact, unless it was some massive ones like Atomy or 2pp Elana at release. Gremory definitely deserver a higher place too, as she was meta defining for most of her time in rotation, as well unlimited until very recently with the Soultaker buff (and later Despair). Imo, she's better than Skeleton Raider, even if we just consider rotation. Seductress should also get more credit, imo the most busted card in the game, that often turn games into gambling to see if you can draw it early and them get a bunch of op effects for free by blanking one draw. No idea why she was unnerfed in the first place.
Shadowverse: in our game, an anime card is the best card in the game Excellent list. Tho I do feel that Gilnelise ( craving ), Atomy, Olivia & Sylvia, Genesis Artifact and Drazael could’ve gotten honourable mentions
Kirisaku number 1 is definitely deserved like they are the most busted enabler for OTK with even possible extra reanimate via ceruunos Also my choice gremory on 4th is good for me as number 3 and 2 is really arguably broken as hell 😂
And the most tilt-inducing card is Dragon Oracle for sure, since it's in every Dragoncraft list forever and it always feels like the outcome of the match is hinged on whether dragon has it by turn 2, so unfun
Yeah I definitely considered Gilnelise, one of the most flexible cards ever But I ended up not including her because she was more often a convenient thing to have rather than a card that gives you the win, even with the Invoke
That card 🎴 was mostly so good because it was the only good mass healing effect. And some decks really needed one. The card has brilliant flavour though. The Omens learn nuance in Omen of Storms and become more self-aware. Though unlike the others, Gilnelise decides to go even more into consuming everyone, because she likes it.
Can you try to speak with an American accent or Transatlantic accent for a video? Sometimes I have to rewind because certain words or phrases are difficult to understand. I understand this may be an impossible request. I really enjoy your content.
I'm trying my best 😅 Thank you for watching despite that, next video I will try adding subs to make it easier to follow, and I'm gonna keep working on my accent

For me, Gilnelise, Ravenous Craving is definitely among the GOATs, though she was pretty well designed.

You said augmentation bestowal is the only card still banned in unlimited. Restless parish is still banned. :)
