Force of Negation.

Really makes Neoform games so much less enjoyable since the control/midrange players can mull to FON and another hate card so I can't keep anything but the 1/100,000,000 chance hands that let me beat two hate cards. If they only had 1 hate card, or a hate card that can't be cast for free The Neoform games can acctually be pretty interesting.

Jhoira of the Ghitu because I have so many bad memories playing against my friends deck which has that as commander and turning up consistent turn 6 eldrazi titans. Like the deck was nothing but counter spells and eldrazis.

Mindslaver

It would at least be more fair if it said, “target player loses the game.” Something about that card makes me feel violated and I always forfeit the game when its used on me.

Thoughtseize crushed my soul enough to make me stop playing 60 card formats. Just because I wasn't good at magic at the time and kept being surprised when it screwed me. I'd be all excited with my starting hand, get a turn one of these, and totally lose traction and panic.

Also, I traded a Blightsteel Colossus for a Parallel Lives because I was trying to build a human tribal tokens standard deck, which was never finished. I regret that a lot and seeing him makes me sad.

Mostly just bad memories associated with cards.

I've made some people hate Slaughter Games a few times. I ran a causal tabletop group in college and brought that as a joke. I knew their decks because we played daily, if not I would Duress to see their hand and guess what to get rid of next I'm sure there is some hate for that one.

I still don't really like The Rack much, but I've gotten over it enough to build Pioneer Shrieking Affliction so....

Although, some of my friends still hate Mindcrank. They'll never be ready for me to bring it back, regardless of how bad it is.

Also, while previewing this post I realized Mindcrank was $2, and I still have 4 in my bulk box. Neat. Bought the playset for like $1-2 back when ICO was just printed. Also back when I thought Masters went into Standard.

Can't stand Lord Windgrace anymore. Not really because I despise what the card does, but because every lord windgrace deck is the exact same thing. It's annoying to face the same deck over and over again.

Actually I changed my mind. Its all cards. Any opponent plays a card and I hate it.

PrimeTime isn't banned in Modern. It is banned in EDH simply because the amount of extra mana it can get you, not to mention Wasteland, Strip Mine and other utility lands galore, is just so much better than just about anything in the format.

Although commander is a world where you can ignore the banlist.

I'm going to terrorize you real quick.

Guess what? PrimeTime is just about the best creature in Modern barring Uro, Titan of Nature's Wrath(aka lifegainy Risen Reef a la edgelord).

It's a constant threat. Now, it doesn't necessarily win with Valakut, but it is still used fairly heavily and to great effect.

Also, if you're scared of losing t4.... I have some decks I'd like to introduce you do. Storm, Lotus Breach, Burn, literally everything in Modern win around then. Makes it a lot harder to keep up, but it's still interesting.
