    Blue is often the most powerfull kind of magic. Mighty Guard and White Wind are classic kick-ass spells that always are usefull. It's also the most well-balanced kind magic, with both powerfull attack and support spells.

    I'm not much of a magic user, but whether you love to just fight, or use magic, white magic is ey to surviving. Black magic is good to take out groups, but they can be dwindled with attacks as well. Blue magic is good, but depending on the game can be more of a pain to learn. White magic is just key to surviving. And when white magic includes spells like Aero/Holy it has those attack spells to help you out if needed.

    SO yeah, white is the best because it is always useful.

    Black Magic. Offence is the best defence.

    Blue Magic is too frail. It's also too contrived of an idea. Realistically, attacking blue magics are black in nature, and healing blue magics are white in nature. So it's hard to say that blue magic even exists, except that humans can't seem to figure out how to teach the spells (And only monsters can? Wierd. Or stupid!?!)

    Blue Magic has to be the most useful in an overall sense; it takes elements of both Black and White Magic, while often adding creative twists. It can also, in certain circumstances, overwhelm an entire body of White of Black Magic with a few spells. In FFVII, for example, White Wind, Angel Whisper, and Big Guard are undoubtedly more useful than all of the typical White Magics combined. Normal Black Magic in FFX-2 consists entirely of elemental spells; something like Supernova or Annihilator is clearly more destructive.

    Blue Magic also has twice occurred as a Limit Break set for a character. You can't tell me that Shockwave Pulsar and Degenerator (FFVIII) or Nova (FFX) are weaker than the Black spells in those games.

    What about Time Magic? Or Yin/Yang Magic? Or Summoning?

    White Magic, because I love female White Magic Users. :<3: My little closed heart's beating fast, ah, I feel I'm becoming young again!

    Despite it not being an option, I have to say Time Magic. Who can say no to haste?

    Jikuu magic rules-- pity they had to degrade it into black and white:/

    but white magic gets teh most of it that I use, so I voted for that (regen, slow/slowga haste/hastega, float, compared to demi, stop, comet, meteo, quarter, mute, and 'death')

    Rydia.

    Also, sometimes White Magic can be just as powerful as Black Mage, with Holy.
