Philosopher's Stone at #5? You'll struggle to find many to even rank it in the top five Potion-cost cards.

Why I like it is because one time my uncle got it from black market and he kept on getting 10, 11, 12 from just that one card

Have we done a large favorite cards ranking recently? Not suggesting we do one, but I wonder what cards would gain the most ranks compared to their power ranking.

The Qvist rankings also include a favorite cards ranking, but the results have never been made public, and I don't even know if they had enough participants.

I participated in the favorite rankings in 2016 but didn't do it in 2017 because I realized nothing would come from it.

Poor house and leprechaun suck. For your worst 20, you literally named all of my favorite cards.

Do you mean top 20 as favorite or top 20 as most powerful?

Do you mean they're weak? Sometimes weak/niche cards are the most interesting.

Also, since my worst 20 isn't a mirror image of your top 20, I didn't "literally" name all of your favorite cards.

It's not on anyone's list but Vampire is the sexiest suckiest card by far.

Vampire and Exorcist are neck and neck for my favorite Nocturne card. Vampire's attack can carry a real bite, and I think being able to gain Duchies should count for a lot.

Fool, idol, tracker, werewolf and cobbler are mine. None of them are in my top 20 list, though.
