Magic: The Gathering is awesome. Lorwyn is going to be cool.
Now I just wish I had friends to play it with.

MTG was awesome. I haven't played for a longggggggggggg time.. I used to have a Tooth and Nail deck.

I play every now and then with my friends, it seems like everybody has a control deck.. those aren't fun

I used to play too. I used a Green Stompy deck.

hey man i play still have my cards. i live in georgia. im always up for a game. not into the newest sets though. The newest sets that i have is onslaughter. I know its kinda old lol. But i like the older cards better for some reason. The only reason why it doesn't have all those abilitys like morph or flip or double strike crap lol. But ya if you have a yahoo or msn msg me on here. and we can play apperintice or mtg online. Or unless you live in georgia. close that is lol. we could play. I have a bunch of diffrent types of decks.

i have one deck i dunno what type you play but its a 1.5 or was a 1.5 dunno if they changed the rullings on the cards yet or not. But its my megrim underworld dreams deck.

also have a invinite power creature deck. i can get my krackklin up to a million / million if i wanted it that high.

ok thats about all im gonna talk about mtg. msg me if your intrested.

Love magic and still play it often, both casual and competitive. And all I have to say is SLIVERS FTW!!!!

i have slivers their so gay lol. I mostly like enchantment cards more

Yeah I used to live in Utah where a whole ton of kids played, but three months ago I moved to Blythe, California which is in the middle of nowhere. Closest Wal-Mart is like an hour away... No places to buy cars... and, as far as I know, no one who plays it here...

MTG is getting crappy (imo) cause of the new shit they keep adding each edition, and taking out stuff...

It started getting old after the 7th edition.........




But I go to card shops and get the cards I want to kick all the 'new school' deck's asses

I used to play Magic: The Gathering, at the most during Onslaught and those days, I've been playing since the Tempest expansion was released. I don't play anymore because it's too expensive if you want to play competitive serious games.

I think I still have my suicide deck somewhere.

I had an elf deck. That's because my cards were always shitty. That one elf that can call other elves out of the deck is pretty sweet. And mana is never a problem. And with growth and other +x/+x cards and that enchantment that turns all your lands into 1/1 creatures... tons of 4/5 creatures coming at you is a bit of a problem.
I got a lot of cards during 4th edition. Stopped completely before 6th edition. It did start getting gay with all the new abilities they kept adding.
Slivers. lol.

i used to play with a soulshift deck and a first attack deck with the orcs and viashino's

its a good game,just not anymore imo =/

Yeah, Slivers are pretty ghay.

I have an elf deck around too, but I had a cool artifact that I could discard my hand and draw as many cards as I had creatures in play. Which is nice cause like you said you have a shit load of mana and you can play alot of cards and your elf's grow almost exponentially with that artifact, and then i added fireballs and ghitu fires for some solid dmg. I also had these cards that let you untap all your creatures and allowed you to attack and use their abilities again which just rocked cause i could get loads of mana and life and like i said unleash a fireball

Used to play it, too. For about a year or so; I usually played white/blue spellblock/defensive decks. Add a few irrealities or other usually unblockable stuff to slowly tear your opponent apart.
I actually liked graveyard decks more (that was before they had those cards with special abilities like if there are this many creatures in your graveyard etc...), but I never got my hands on decent cards for such a deck. Getting a 6/6 in my third turn or so would probably feel really nice... Add black ritual and you could probably get out a huge beast in your first or second turn already.

Uh, yeah, got way too expensive soon. It used to be a great game, but constant addition/removal of cards (en masse, of course) made it crappy. Those 10000 special abilities suck, too.

Slivers can be funny. There was some creature that gave you X colorless mana whenever you got a new creature, where X is the number of creatures of that type. Now say you have the Sliver Queen and 2 slivers out. Sliver Queen: pay 3 colorless to get another Sliver token - get 3 colorless - play another Sliver token and so on. Too bad that such combos were usually forbidden...
I also had that combo where you drew one card every time the enchanted creature inflicted damage on the opponent. That creature had to have a tap: inflict one damage ability. Then you used some other enchantment to discard a card and untap said creature for another round of damage.

The big number of cool combinations (not only instant-win ones) - while still being not too complex - made MTG so cool imo.

I've just bought a green starter deck. Learned some basic rules etc. at the store while waiting for the bus

i played for like three years, then I started getting bored with all those new additions.

If any of you guys are interested I know a good magic site.

Anyway I used to play with a green/blue snake deck and a threshold deck based of some championship deck. And slivers are hella annoying.
