Magic the Gathering

[Happy lil Elf]

No, Cifer, you have negative opinions and that's all you have. You like to bitch like a small child over everything or at the very least try to slam it. You suck at expressing yourself in written form, you suck at flaming, and I'm willing to bet your father has spent many a night wishing he had pulled out at that critical moment. Now go back to trying to gloat about other peoples kills

I used to play it for about five years. Ha, I almost fail Math 30 because I was always skipping to duel with friends. My favorate set was Ice Age and I liked using the Elder Dragon Legends. But I gave up the game, because My friend's played it, and if I even tried I could kick their asses easy, and then they'd get pissed off at me for stomping them, so I stopped trying to win, and got bored to tears playing with them, as they'd still get mad at me, because I could still kick their asses. And then all the many counter spells came out, and then it just became stupider, and stupider to even try to play. My cards were getting countered constantly. And there were times when I'd have to sit through a friken counter spell war. "I counter your counter of your counter...blah blah blah." It was just fun for me because I always played black, and black had some sweet pain card. Even if they hurt me, I'd still use them. I even managed to kill everyone all at the same time, which isn't easy against 5 opponents.

People still play card games

I was travelling 10-15 hours a week sometimes, to travel to Decipher's Star Wars Card league, of course that was all payed for by our sponsors, i quit that years ago though

I played M:TG for a long time. It was what my friends and I always did when we got together. Eventually it kinda broke apart. Some of the guys moved. Drugs claimed others. Some just decided they didn't want to play and sold their cards. Pretty much the only people you find now are 14 or 15 year olds who graduated from pokemon and the 35 year olds who still live with their mom.
Besides all that, the game itself went downhill after it was bought out. They have a card now that makes you discard half your deck. If that isn't a load of BS I dunno what is.

Magic is a card game for the thinking man. Probably explains the responses of a select few.

That pretty much sums up everything i was gonna say to Diluted.

Magic the Gathering was, and still is, the greatest strategical card game ever invented. The rules were awesome and the strategies they allowed were infinite.

Matches between two good decks were some seriuos shit. People who have never played have no idea the level of strategy and tactics that goes into a fight.

I cant believe all the watered down crap that has come into the world since then. Everytime I see my nephew playing that POS Yu-gi-oh i want to smack him and his friends around. That game is absolute BS. No thinking, no tactics, no nothing. I've played games of Solitaire that were more intence.

I havent played in a loooong time. Got maybe 2,000 cards in my old room back home. It was awesome in middle school, the shiznit in early highschool, but I lost interest in playing in late high school once drug dealing and sex started taking over my attention. *shrug* Ill give em to my kid and see if he's got his old man's tactical abilities.

[Pilgrim]

I've never like Magic but I played others

Best is probably Legeng of the 5 Rings from AEG

And speaking of AEG I got to try the new Initial D CCG it's pretty damn kewl.

(yes sadly I go to gaming conventions to try things like this out )

please. prove it with some literal backing.

besides you pissing on yourself over my opinions and statements, which i'm thoroughly enjoying, please give me actual backing to this. what i post on a forum describes less than a single percentage of me - so since you're so vastly superior in all ways, tell me how you somehow know me like a book. and don't pull everything out of your ass while trying to make youself look profound and special this time, either.

[Vick]

wait, did TekDragon just post here?

[Solitudinem]

MTG.. great card game... although I find it amusing that people that spend time dissing people on a WEB FORUM dare call other people "nerds, pokemon graduates, and 35 year olds that still live with their moms"...

[Zodiac]

i just like the card art (i dont play)

[Spider]

Yea 5 rings is a bit more strategical then MTG. One wrong move can get you killed X_x

Magic has now combos that are unbeatable sucks... I mean I have a friend who has a 3000$ Deck and he kills anyone in 2-3 turns

Awwww, the jizz bucket still wants to play. That's so cute. Of course I don't know you, Cifer. I can only know what you choose to put forth on these boards, which is a, well, see my above post. By all means if the pile of maggot shit that's been posting here lately isn't the "true" you, please begin posting as your true self as soon as possible.

Spider; his deck isn't tournament legal then.. i'll admit, to keep a tournament legal deck (that isn't virtual) you have to shell out cash for new cards, but I play online a bit with Appr1.46. It has all the updated cards in it, and believe it or not, it does take of creativity to make a good tourney legal deck.

[Happy lil Elf]

Yeah there have been combos since the game started that were banned from tournaments because they're unfair. Just play him with tournament legal decks
