    That's fucking retarded holy shit

    now realize that this thing has never really seen play because it's not good enough for most formats

    in casual I love this thing and I really wish I had one but competitively it is filled with faults

    this guy might just be my favorite creature of all time just because of how fun it is to play the deck I made focused on him

    I just traded with my friend for him.
    Have added him to my werewolf deck.
    Need to get that card that helps control their transformations... forget what it is.

    My first card was a Thalid. My first 'game' that I played was really early on, Arabian Nights-ish time frame. I was about 8.

    But my mother didn't like the black magic cards, specifically the "Terror" card and convinced me to buy the Star Wars CCG instead. Which I never played a real game of and only really sunk a ton of money into without getting a real return. I was in high school before I started buying my own Magic cards, I got my first deck the summer before I entered the 9th grade.

    Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.

    I was familiar with mtg in high school. Guys I hung with all played it. I liked the pictures, didn't like the idea of spending so much money at the time. I would play occassionally, but it was usuually them playing through me.
    What got me was the little decks they included in the bags at PAX. All that line waiting, and here's a game that a bunch of people knew how to play. @irtehmongoose taught me.
    Took a little bit but I got more and more interested. Eventually started buying my own packs.
    My collection isn't huge and my decks aren't fantastic, but I have fun :)

    you know what's a great card that I used a lot against my friend's Azorius deck? Magistrate's Veto.

    I'm thinking I might like the Commander rules more than normal magic. You get to use so many more cool cards, like http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=87593.

    I was playing this pretty hardcore up until the new phyrexia sets dropped. These new sets are piquing my interest though

    Also there's a new MtG shop walking distance from my apartment

    I love Commander/EDH so much, but I have very little in physical cards that people consider "staples" for the format

    I've made something like 12 decks for it probably, but all except for 3 are stuck online because I don't have the stuff I need to make them and getting it would cost a lot

    Commander/Elder Dragon is the best way to play magic! I have the best goblin deck, it's hilarious

    I just made an Elder Dragon Highlander style deck using all of my most recent G/W cards

    literally the only thing I'm missing is a Legendary Green/White Commander. I have 99 cards, and a commander ain't one.

  • drp527drp527 We sacrifice our own That more may rise in their placeRegistered User regular
    I have made in real life:
    Sek'Kuar, Deathkeeper
    Zur the Enchanter
    Niv Mizzet the Firemind

    using Lackey I have made many many more that are fun to play but that will never see the light of day

    I have the best/worst idea for a commander deck

    The deck would be entirely composed of those "if player does X then X" cards. Also cards like all green spells cost 2 additional to cast

    also my EDH deck had something like 40 counterspells in it

    everyone complained so i took half of them out for card advantage and EDH style bombs

    kinda want to get the red black white commander deck. It has some neat stuff in it. But they i would be spending money on magic again and the only people around here i know that play it are assholes. So that's no good.

  • drp527drp527 We sacrifice our own That more may rise in their placeRegistered User regular
    I bought all of the Commander decks

    probably not the best decision, but all of the new legendary things they had were really neat and fun to use

    i mostly want that one because i like its theme of dragons, angels, and demons.

    These are probably my favourite creature types.

  • drp527drp527 We sacrifice our own That more may rise in their placeRegistered User regular
    Kaalia is probably the most powerful of them

    she is just absurdly good what with giving you free very large creatures starting that early in a game

    FUCKING LOVE RAVNICA

    I'm so glad I'm not alone in this. Most of the people I play with got into Magic in the last year or so, my first full set was Ravnica and all of my legacy decks are old Ravnica guild decks.

    flying creatures could still touch you.

    But then if you have that set up, odds are you've got a handle on them.

    Highly competitive magic talk confuses me.

    I have a bunch of old cards.

    Enough to make like five decent decks.

  • drp527drp527 We sacrifice our own That more may rise in their placeRegistered User regular
    the deck falls apart in the face of any mass destruction of enchantments, but most people don't run things like that

    it still can't really deal with board wipers but eh, it's close enough to unstoppable when it sets up for me

    Man, anyone who thinks Mirrodin is crazy overpowered bullshit clearly never played during Urza's Saga.

    Also, Innistrad did nothing for me but I'm really digging Dark Ascension so far.

    I sort of understand what's going on when people talk about competitive stuff, but for the most part I just find cards I like at random and find ways to build around them

    the results are fun for casual play but godawful for anything else, usually

    Free counter spells?

    What could go wrong?
