So I tabbed over to #modhelp earlier tonight and people were making Magic references and I was like ooh Magic and then we talked about Magic. Shiirn and I are thinking of maybe starting up an online playgroup using LackeyCCG, a program that lets you play online for free.

Use this thread to talk about your favorite trading card game. If Magic is your second favorite TCG then I guess that's fine too.

Magic players of all walks, come on out! I don't care if you play at the kitchen table or at the Pro Tour.

I'll start some discussion. Anyone play at the Innistrad prerelease last weekend? It was the most fun I've had in a sealed-deck event for a while.

Hamachi network info
name: osumagic
pass: aha?
(note: network has a max of 16 people I think. If we get more than that I'll work out something)

Note: Skype chat is very, very useful as the built-in chat function gets tedious when you're playing all over.



beware that if you play me, you're going to see counters flying like hail.

I play Magic very casually. Started around Zendikar and play off and on. Used to do drafts a lot and played on Magic Workstation for a little bit. Remmy gifted me Magic 2012 on Steam recently and I've been playing that when I get the time. I like black+blue and black+red mostly. D:

I presume you use a blue & white deck then? If you like to use counterspell you probably like the annoying spells that white has also (pacifism, shackles) XD

This sounds like fun, I haven't been following magic since mirrodin so I might be a bit rusty.

I started from siege of mirrodin, but I got into a lot so I'm not totally inexperienced :P

Started after Nemesis was released. Have like $3000-4000 worth of cards or something idk. Mostly from trading and prize winnings. I almost never actually buy cards, just occasionally buy singles that I either need or believe will jump up in price after I buy them. Also a DCI Judge.

Prefer playing drafts and sealed over any type of constructed.

Oh right and I always draft White.

Like always. Every time.
Isn't cool enough to have a signature.

Oh, a Magic thread.
I have a soldiers deck and a beasts deck, but both are quite outdated now. D:
I hate counters.

I am blunt. Don't be offended by what I say, I don't mean it offensively.

Soly: he actually means counters as in +1/+1 and charge. I play blue-white a good bit myself though! :)

I've been playing off and on since around Urza's Saga... been pretty solidly into it for the past 3½-4 years. I kick myself for having been inactive during Ravnica. I hear nothing but good words about that set.

+1/+1, -1/-1, any form of counters, not actual counter-cards. erm.
I tend to use a green mana ramp deck focused on getting "mana of any color" (it mostly works by starting off with using a basic land to start throwing around overgrowth and fertile ground) so that i can use the best counter creatures (i.e. ivy elemental) and using the best proliferation cards (such as steady progress, which is blue) to multiply those counters, along with charge counters on artifacts, so it's pretty much a "random shit thrown together" deck. It's nearly the same as the one i run in reality.

Combo decks are awesome (except splinter twin, it's boring imo)

I bought a magic deck ages ago for some reason. Even though I don't play...
I enjoy occasionally playing Duels of the Planeswalkers, but that's about it.

I didn't take any news from Magic after the Alara thing. I hate the new abilities and mechanics too much.

I have around 1000 cards (not counting my decks and beast collection), but I kinda quit Magic, so I'm trying to sell them. D:
