“At the time, it was probably the most powerful deck you could play,” one player from San Francisco told the outlet. “I infer from that that he’s ruthless and wants to win at all costs.”
On Reddit, a subgroup for “Magic” players concluded that any deck built around Yawgmoth’s Bargain would be associated with “greed, ambition, dominance, wickedness, the dead and undead, vampires, demons, blood magic.”
“The idea of [the card] is a deal with the devil, right? You’re selling your soul for power… It’s power at any cost, and that seems to be what he’s into,” Kunce added.

Those are, in fact, largely the in-lore associations of the color black. Obviously, playing black in the game doesn’t mean someone is actually evil (lol), it just means they enjoy certain types of effects and playstyles. That said, I would like to see all the SJWs stop playing Magic out of protest for the game making “black” “evil.” That would be a nice ironic fate after WOTC has spent so long charging leftwards.
(Also, you can do this for any of the colors. He plays white? I guess he wants to impose tyrannically strict order! He plays red? Guess he wants to super aggressively burn everything down. Green? Anti-progress. Blue? Anti-nature).

Imagine the pathetic cope one struggles with to look to a 30 year old card game to find a criticism against a political candidate.
