Magic: The Gathering Thread

[Kamen_Sentai]

I know there is a dueling thread, but that's mostly Yu-Gi-Oh, and I think Magic deserves a thread as well, and I'm hoping there are fans and players here in HJU. I started playing back in may, made my way up on my local friday night magic, was invited to join the crew of Dueling Grounds through a tournament (lost) but it was fun. I been playing standard. and I'm moving my way to Extended, and heading to the Grand Prix on January for a chance to win $25,000 (first place) wish me luck.

if there are not fans of MTG, then let this thread die. but if there are fans...let us talk.

also, Jace TMS is OP, but awesome.

used to play Magic until i gave up 3 years ago

good luck with the Tournament :thumbs:

 

[Kamen_Sentai]

3 years ago? wow, that's 3 sets.

and thanks, making an extended deck is hard...is not like standard.

 

[ClydeHowlyn]

My last set was that dual coloured one. Ravnica, was it?

I used to have a sweet Counter-spell deck and a Goblin deck

 

[Kamen_Sentai]

why did you quit?

 

[ClydeHowlyn]

lol i dunno..
guess it was realising how much money i put into making those decks
still played when Time Spiral came out but i didnt bother getting new cards and eventually i.. just lost interest, i guess :\

I still read their novels, though
The Kamigawa arc's my favorite

 

[Kamen_Sentai]

nice, i'm gonna start with the novels soon.
and yeah it kinda sucks money...a bit. me and 3 other friends just buy 2 boxes every set, we all pitch in and we each share cards from our large card pool. so we don't have to spend a lot of money on each other.

Haven't played since Time Spiral.

Good game though, the sheer amount of options it affords you is staggering.

making a 4 color control deck for the grand prix. works fine. needs MORE PLAY TESTING! :buttrock:

so my red deck won me yesterday's friday night magic, 45 bucks of store credit. getting better at this, those 25k looks closer now.
