What do you think is the worst card in StS?

[Cowsep]

Of course, with the exception of curse, status cards as well as strikes and defends, because these cards are supposed to make your deck suffer.

In my opinion, after beating A20 heart several times, watcher's "Alpha" card is the worst.

I mean, it is basically a "slimed" status card, except it takes away 3 draws and 6 costs. 50 damage per turn may sound nice, but watcher can easily deal more than 50 damage each turn just by taking advantage of wrath and calm stances.

The thing that I don't understand is, why is this not a silent card? Silent has better draw and infinite deck cycle potentials than watcher, and unlike watcher, other than Grand Finale and double Catalyst+, Silent hardly has a card that can deal tons of damage each turn.

So what are your opinions?

The worst card is Membership Card, because that ♥♥♥♥♥♥ sells it to you again and again every time you resurrect instead of honoring the first one you bought.

First thing that came to mind is Pressure Points.

- Only card that does the Mark, no support from anything else.

- Does not synergize with any of the other base watcher mechanics like stances.

- It's not even strong on it's own.

- Because of both of the points above, it's even terrible as a "one of" option or tech against other enemies, as soon as you get literally anything going it's a dead card.

- Because it's the only card that does the Mark, it's close to impossible to build a dedicated deck for it (since you would need multiple copies for it to be consistent).

- Even if you somehow manage to build a dedicated deck with multiple copies and proper support that allows to play it a lot, it still feels worse than every other Watcher archetype, especially if you factor how unlikely it is you will ever make such a deck and how hard is it to make it work

- Because of all of those reasons, I think Pressure Points is actually worse than most curses. Because, unlike curses, it can appear in your card choices, does not work with curse synergies, cannot be played if you have blue candle, and just in general does not interact with things as curses would. It's a curse card without curse synergies.

I can't think of any other card that's worse than this from the top of my head.

Recently did a "pressure points -almost- only" deck and it was just so overpowered (but not overpowered enough for the heart). Also had a "signature move" that came in handy in early parts of combats when I need 40 dmg for just two mana.
Now, I had incredible luck during this run. Deck was 13 cards in total. Throughout the run, I managed to get rid of all strikes, all defend and also eruption and replace all that with third eye, evaluate and pressure points (4 of them, all upgraded). Only card missing to be perfect would have been spirit shield.
13 cards, only 5 "attacks" and only deca&donu managed to hit me in act three. Damage with pressure points accumulate FAST. And with third eye and evaluate, you can manipulate your deck so that you defend when you need to and attack when you need to. I think I could've beaten the heart, but I lost way too much life against that fracking mini-boss before.

Should have read the fine print.
