Blood Moon
 
This is one of the most context-dependent cards in Magic. In some matchups, it's basically an off switch for the opponent's deck, and in others it might literally do nothing. There's not really any middle ground with Blood Moon; generally you're either winning when you cast it or not playing it at all. Interestingly, it is arguably somewhat less of an H-bomb in its native environment, as there are excellent artifact and other non-land mana producers in the 1994 card pool and many of them help you cast things like Tranquility or Disenchant. If you're getting into Old School constructed, though, I'd still recommend getting some - if nothing else, they help deal with the ubiquitous Mishra's Factory.
