When the USA went into Iraq the WMD's they were looking for were Chimney Imps! This card starts illegitemate wars and threatens the balance of the world!!

It's a little known fact, but Chimney Imp was originally supposed to be Mythic Rare.

However, on the day of the printing, it turned out that the printer at Wizards had run out of both golden and silver paint. (Rumors have it that this was due to sabotage by a secret society called the Implumminati, consisting of the wealthiest Magic players around the world.) Therefore, Wizards couldn't make it Mythic Rare, nor even Uncommon. Faced with this roadblock, the company had no choice but to make Chimney Imp common, despite knowing how powerful it is. And that's why Mirrodin is broken.

Honestly, did you REALLY believe a card THIS powerful could ever have been intended to be a simple common? Come on, all around the world people sing the praises of Chimney Imp. You think this is just a figure of speech? They literally sing them.

The real game-breaking part is that he has flying. Even Chittering Rats doesn't have that and all for just 2 extra mana. Too broken, I say.

Also survives spark spray, can block fear and flying, can fight off turn-1 Champion of the Parish and Birds of Paradise and un-buffed Tarmogoyf, fizzles doomblade and terror, can't be blocked by darksteel colossus, and forces your opponent to potentially waste a wrath of god. Even then, he still trolls you after dying by slowing down your tempo so you can't top deck something to save yourself. Even black lotus dies to naturalize, ancestrall recal and time walk can be countered with negate Negate. Not Chimney Imp though.

Costs 2-7 Cents on most sites. Great Battle of Wits Deckpadding. Also, it's FRICKIN' CHIMNEY IMP.

The only disadvantage to this card is that you lose it if you use Sorrow's Path. Even so, it's an auto-include in every Sivitri Scarzam EDH deck.

It's hard to evaluate the worst cards in magic based on rating due to the phony ratings on this card. If not for the joke ratings, this might be in the bottom ratings of all cards.
