[MTG] The discussioning!
So yeah, seems we have a decent little cult of Magic players that have crawled out from under the woodwork. Maybe we can get a discussion thread going?
How long have you been playing? Got a favorite deck? I've been putting together some theme decks over the last few days. I've got some pretty funny ones: The Lion King Beauty and the Beast A Caribbean Adventure! Folklore of rabbits and tar... And then into a more serious deck: My current Legacy toy. Death at the Disco Anyway, what do you guys got to show? I've been playing since right around Arabian Nights and have been to a handful of medium profile tournaments in my day. My only claim to nerdy Magic fame is that I've actually played a hand or two with the game's creator, Richard Garfield. |
Was introduced to it long ago by my older brother who gave me his leftover junk cards (over hundreds of them, but still...). Have played Apprentice making 20+ decks for kicks including a few that made my friend want to kick me in the teeth.
However, I don't have anyone who is interested in playing nearby to actually buy cards to play with, especially since it is an expensive hobby (like many others) that you can't play by yourself with (without making fun of yourself or playing solitaire version or something). Stopped playing mainly because my firewall decided to go hating on Apprentice and I haven't gotten it to work since. Hoping it won't be the case now. |
Well I want to give Apprentice a shot but putting some of my decks into it seems to be an exercise in futility. I almost got my Dark Clerics deck loaded except they don't have Recurring Nightmare in their card list. And most of my other decks seem to have cards that are too new to be supported.

There are patches, apparantly, which give you the later sets. I think it also has a card creation thing, so you can add in new cards that aren't patched in?

I was able to find up to Scars in apprentice, I'll go in and put a link to where i got the patches when Im home. My current favorite deck (read: Only deck :P), I have it on paper and in MODO

I've been picking up packs of the newest sets recently. I especially like Decimator Web because it actually uses the word "decimate" correctly.

I understand. I used to run a pretty neat blue/green spirit/arcane deck that used the Unspeakable search combo as well.

Hm, I'd post my decklists here but I don't actually have my decks in front of me right now. How annoying. Oh well, I'll go off of memory. Keep in mind I'm probably definitely forgetting some things if the numbers don't look right.
Another thing to keep in mind is my friends and I play Legacy, so we kinda try and make all of our decks efficient as possible, goofy concept or not. GOBLINS! Sadly I can't remember every card from the deck, but there's the meat of it. Skirk Prospector + Siege Gang + Sharpshooter = DEATH. And, ya know, everything means death too, but what can ya do? Can't believe I forgot my longest running deck, though... Anyway, moving on! B/R Discard Again forgetting some cards, but that's that. This one's fun if only because it's just so generically dicky. Discard? Control? Oh the humanity! Now, moving on! Mono-white Soldiers More forgetting I think! But this one's pretty self explanatory. Soldiers and all. So simple! Life Gain! Still forgetting some for this one as well, I think, but just note that Proclamation + Martyr is ridiculous. I've actually legitimately gotten over 1000 life with this just because my friend was stubborn. I don't think it'll ever happen again. Anyway, that's all from me for now. But just know that I also have a Blue/Black/Green mill deck that uses Lord of Extinction for laughs and the almighty BEAST DECK. FEAR THE BEASTIES. |
