Contemporary wisdom says that you want to play as few as possible, but is this really the case? I take a look at the worst and best things garnets have to offer, and if they deserve their awful reputation among players today.

(We gotta talk about Maliss, sorry if you hate Maliss, but we gotta talk about it.)
