What do you do with utter shit cards like pic related? I have a stack of them accumulated and was wondering about some creative uses

You could put together a low-powered cube. I currently have a large box slowly filling up with draft chaff, and am running into a similar problem.

I run a FLGS and people give these to me usually.

I sell them for like $0.50 an inch or $0.05 individually.

People will spend literally hours going through the boxes so I like them. Makes the store look fuller, those people usually buy a drink or a booster.

After prereleases I almost have a perfect standard sans rares.

Point being, give them to your store. Sometimes they won't take them because we are usually up to our dicks in this shit.

Use them for tokens.
Stack up enough and give them to a kid.
Save them on the really off chance they become useful in some format for retarded metareasons

Can't you blank MtG cards with acetone or some other chemical?

It only really works with foils.

Mega fucking garbage cube sounds pretty fun.

That reminds me of the box of commons I got from a distand relative three years ago, took me a good while to put them in order.
This is the box in its messy glory.

And this is the same box of cards after three days. That small plastic box contains double lands, in case you can't make out the text.

Was that Nekusar in the box? I also see an Apostle's Blessing, it wasn't all chaff was it?

A lot of shit becomes playable in Pauper EDH, but then you're left with shit rares to deal with.
>>
Turn it into wallpaper.
>>
>>48760432
Use them to practice altering or paint over the face with an entirely new card alter. Turn those shitty cards into a EDH deck that's 100% alter

Yes, there were some good cards mixed in the box, including six Goblin Electromancers which I still use. What surprised me that there was not a single Pacifism among the white cards, but at least wenty Killshots. I lost count how many Trumpet Blasts I found on the reds.
And yes, He gave me the nekuzar because he had no use for an oversized card. I get to use it on my commander deck, though.

If you're an arts & crafts type, there are some interesting things you can do with them.

You can make 3D magic cards, basically by taking multiple copies of the same card, cutting sections out, and stacking them on top of each other so the stuff in the background of the card art is a few layers behind the stuff in the foreground. If you have some jank cards with art you like, and you're good with an exacto knife, you can probably make some pretty cool-looking pieces. You can also make them life counters by adding a dial wheel in between the layers. Google "how to make 3D magic cards", there are lots of guides and references out there.

There was also an article on the mothership years back on how to make a Menger sponge out of magic cards:
http://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/arcana/menger-sponge-2008-04-15

I also recall seeing a similar thing with making something like an icosahedron or the like, involving slits cut into the cards to interlock them together, but I can't find it for the life of me.

This page also has several good ideas:
http://tallystreasury.com/2011/01/7-craftsy-things-to-do-with-magic-cards/

Or make a photomosaic out of them.

Or, if your arts & crafts skills aren't all that hot, you could just stick a few together to make coasters. Pic related.

Super garbage with super synergy is best cube.

Let it be known that there once was a man who threw out a small pile of Serum Visions because Preordain was printed. That man regrets it to a mild degree to this day.
