I can't count the number of times I've gotten a Hypnotic Specter out on turn 1 and started wailing away.

Best art for this card (5th ed. is very close 2nd).
This art SCREAMS out for a promotional foil.

Amazing card. A staple for black players. This particular version has one of the best art for this card...as well as amazing and slightly amusing flavor text. I shouldn't have to explain what you can do with this card--it bumps you up 2 turns in terms of how much mana you have to play with and is perfect for another of the strongest cards in black: Necropotence.

Congratulations Dark Ritual on #1 magic card on the Gatherer!

Tied with 20+ other cards for a score of 5.0, but it has more votes than any of the rest.

Most of the ways to win a game of Magic: the Gathering start by saying "Swamp, Dark Ritual, Dark Ritual...."

This card is hilariously dumb and powerful. You need a playset. By the way, unlike Black Lotus, you can actually get one. Swag. B|
