10 Video Game Bosses Who Will Not Accept Defeat

5. Arzarkon - Magic: The Gathering

I adore the MTG card game. From its art, to it's robust and easy to pick up mechanics all the way down to the sheer thrill of pulling a mythic and waving it in Ash and Rich's face, it's a blast whenever you're cutting decks and tapping mana.

However, the final boss from the 1997 video game is a test that will send even your toughest creatures to the graveyard along with your hopes and dreams because Arzakhon is an absolute nightmare.

Now, to give him fair dues, he definitely should be seeing as he's the great evil that took entire armies of mages huge effort to seal away, but it's a bit disconcerting that come the close of this admittedly brilliant game, the title warns you that for each point of damage you do, you will seal him away for 10 additional years on top of whatever score you had.

Now while this is great because we know Arzakon is done for no matter what, it's more than a little scary to think that all we're really doing is buying time. No matter what, Arzakon is coming back, and you'd be safe to assume, he's not going to be happy about being locked away for so long.
