Magic the Gathering, anyone?

I've been fixated with this game ever since I got a free starter deck at Geeks, the greatest video game store I've ever been to. So I was just wondering if anyone else plays as well.

I'm watching a LP of the original Magic: The Gathering Duels of the Plains Walkers.

Seems fun. I've seen Red, Green, White, and Black decks so far.

Maybe I'll actually get into the actual game, though I would need to get my friends into it, so I can actually play it. (Green seems like my kind of deck... Or maybe Red.)

Sounds like you'd be an aggressive player. Personally, I prefer Blue and White, with some Green. Mostly, I focus on using outlasting my opponent instead of just overpowering them.

I guess I could be. Haven't seen all the decks yet, so yeah.

Aparently 1 deck is 15 dollars. Must get that much now. XD Or at least it's an intro pack, I think. *Closed tab*

I like the Goblin King in the Red Deck. Helps a lot, from what I've seen. It's really nice in how your creatures get healed after every turn, at first I was like: "...There must be, like a lot stronger cards, if this is the HP for this one..." but then I heard the whole healing thing! ^^

It's okay. I've played it before with my friend. I would've won too, though the bell rang. XD

Totally got a deck and everything. Entangling Webs!

I posted a bunch of info on my blog. XD

I got my friend something, forgot the deck. It'a a blue deck though!

I also can't wait to use Arachnus Spinner, a 6 mana creature, that's a 5/7, which Reach, and can get a card from the graveyard for one untapped spider? Sweeet.

Entangled Webs? That's a pretty good deck. If you want,more cards that'll go with it, try the Innistrad booster packs. Lots of green cards, plus more spiders.

Thanks, Spiders seem fun, with Reach.

I got my friend the Mystical Might one, he wanted a Blue deck, so... Yeah.

Hopefully I won't die, from Blue's habits...

I have a pretty nice starter deck from Scars of Mirrodin. It's a black and blue, with a couple hardy green monsters and I think a goblin in there. I had a green deck once, but it was a bit too powerful for me to use it. Too many monsters costing too much...my deck's main theme is Proliferate.

Blue seems annoying, especially 'Unsummon'

Going to have fun, if my friend casts that on my Arachnus Spinner, which costs 6 Mana...

My deck is going to be, distract, so thatI get to use the big guns. XD

Arachnus Spinner is a 5/7. Can't wait to cast that. XD

Black seems a bit unfair, like revives, and one hit kills. Or at least from what I've seen from this LP...

So yeah.

Oh yeah. Black's a real killer. Basically, you have to get your land out there fast, so you can use your mana to Proliferate. Which basically means damage counters upon damage counters. I have a couple big black beasties, like Carnifex Demon and Skinrender. God, I love Skinrender; he's amazing for Proliferating. When you put him out there, you can put 1 -1/-1 counters on any 3 creatures on the battlefield. <3

Then of course, there's Doom Blade, which costs 1 or two mana and destroys any target nonblack creature. XD

My favorite Green creature in the deck is probably my Alpha Tyrranax. He costs 6 mana and has 6/5. He's just a typical Green Beast, I guess.

It's been a while since I've played...my sister was the only person I really know that played, and she had an Elf deck that kicked my butt royally every time.

...I- Am nervous to fight you, if I could Jinx. XD

Right now I'm going with the actually deck, Green/Red. Red to be itself, block and hold off while I power up Green, then use them.

Hopefully that'll be good. XD Seems like it would work well.

I like the idea of green, I have like 1 Vampire card, so yeah. No black land, so I wouldn't be able to use it.

Wondering if I should sub some card for Rusted Sentinel. It's a 3/4, that is summoned with any 4 mana. It enters tapped, but for a really easy to send out card, I think it's good.

Maybe when I start to make a custom deck, after playing for a bit I'll use it...

Also I love it's quote:

"It has to deliberate a moment on the best way to break your face." XD

I love the quotes. They're awesome. X3

I have blacks to steadily do damage, greens to take hits and dish out direct damage so the blacks don't get royally screwed, and blues because they make for nice artifact/aura play. Though, to be honest, my blues aren't great...I have a few okay ones, like Harbor Serpent and Sky Eel School. For the most part, though, I use my blacks. Carnifex, though he has 6/6, kinda messes up my team, so I don't use him. But I have some good 'uns.

I don't really know why I have Goblins. I don't use them, honestly. They're a bit boring, for me.

I sort of miss the Green deck that my sister let me use. Lots of trees. They were very nice~

Also, here's Skinrender.



Ain't he a doll?

He reminds me of Alien. XD

Green is good at taking hits, especially when they power themselves up...

Unsummon would be a good blue card, especially because they just wasted Mana, and if they had a stradegy, then bye!

Boblins are cool, especially if you have Goblin King +1/+1 to all Goblins.

The more Forests the better! Bring on the big ones, I say!

I was a big fan of the trees. They were hardy and nice. Not to mention lots of pretty pictures. XD

I really liked the Blue/White deck I played around with a while back. I think it was artifact-based, with a handful of Myrs, and it was fabulous. <3

I suppose I'm more strategy-based, though to be honest, I'm still kinda new to Magic. So, I'm obviously not amazing at it yet...

I got my friend a Blue/White deck, so yeah.

I'm not sure what I am... Right now I seem like, patient, then assualt.

I like stuff like that. Sorta like Halo, to be honest. Snipe out, then run in when I have the advantage...

I sort of think about Pokemon when I think about my deck. It's like I've Toxic'd my foe's entire team, and then I switch into walls like Milotic to wear 'em down and keep them from killing me while they're slowly dying. XD

Not that I battle competitively or anything. I just thought it was good metaphor.^^

So guys, got any favorite cards? Any favorite Beasts, Zombies, etc? Obviously, my current favorite is Skinrender...

Right now, mine are spiders. Reach is awesome. Plus it's a Halo game

I didn't know you played, Jinx! Skinrender? *shudders from memories*

Personally, my favorites so far are probably my 9/9 golem token, who I like to call Titan because I use Titan Forge to play him. I also like my Koth of the Hammer and my Mayor of Avaburk.

My decks tend to focus around a mixture of Green and White, with an enphasis on using low-cost monsters to make it easier for my heavier hitters to get out.

9/9...?!

*Shudders*

I'm not going to be able to play, until possibly 2 weeks, so... Yeah...

If only I could magiccly have a Xbox and get the game. It would be really fun...
