Magic is the crack cocaine of the gaming community. Fortunately enough, the gaming community never leaves their comic shop or home, so they don't end up breaking into other peoples cars to buy more majic cards. I used to have a pretty good collection (when I was twelve). Had all three demon power cards and a bunch of other rare things... had a powerfull black deck, blue deck, white and red deck and a green black and blue deck. My black deck had 4 racks, four vices and a howling mines, so I would just kill everyone with cards and mana burn... |

I used to have a very respectable collection of magic cards and played at local tournaments and comic shops, that is untill all my cards were stolen at school. I've never looked back since. That damn science teacher, I told him to lock the doors and check everyones bag, he ... didn't care. |

i was a total magic nuts in my early teens btw, bird of paradise is one mana that's what makes it so powerful and serra angel sure is 5 mana total pfff what a loser remembering all that :D and, yes, i made money off it, but it wasn't cool to rip off younger people who didn't know the real second-hand value of those cards fun facts: they are(were) printed in belgium (carta mundi) well, ate least when i was still playing, thought many times to rob the factory lol |

magic is a weird addiction. the magic company is able to make their printed paper cards value hundreds of dollars. its a fuckin great idea, in fact. money bigger and easier than savetoby.com |

I used to play magic too when I was 12. I was pretty good at it and my complete deck was worth about 200 euros or something. I used to play with a complete red deck. 4 bolts (1 mana-> 3 damage), 2 eathquakes, 4 wildfires, 4 mishra's factories and a couple of other cards I can't remember anymore. it was mostly a destroy deck. |

I went off Magic when they brought out the Artifact heavy ones. Artifacts were cool before then. I still have four Sol Rings!!! |
||||||||
|

|
|
i recently started playing this again after a break of a few years. never spent much money on it, and never will. my coolest card is 'sliver queen' which i got from a booster (teh awesomeness!). sol rings are sweet, but a little too good. mono red sucks. but above all i hate WHITE. stupid protection and life gain CRAP. this game rocks and always will. but the new cards are crap (the ones that look like star trek or something). |

i almost [and probably still do somewhere] had the entire tempest set. all i was missing was that fucking eluvise cursed scroll. oh how i coveted that card. i was all about the black/red suicide-burn decks. who cares if my foul imp takes two life when it comes into play? youre already dead!!! muahahaha |

Played it when I was in school then last year a few of my friends bought cards again. They are really cheap now, the place would let you fill a box of common cards for $5.00. I did that and played a few times, but I think they have just sat in my car's glove box ever since. |

Got into it around the time the revised edition got out. Saw it a year or so before I got into it at a games convention and payed it no attention, so I missed my chance to get a hold of those coveted alpha and beta edition cards, moxes, black lotus etc. From there my schoolyear went to waste as I could only be found buying,trading and playing mtg. at the local comic shop, the owner had his best years, businesswise. I Invested crazy amounts of cash in it, and til this day I still have an insane collection of cards collecting dust somewhere. Also aqcuired quite a collection of the "duelist" and "inquest" magazines. Used to play referee guy for fun on tourneys and loved discussing the rules with others. I quit it some time after they came up with all sorts of new rules and additions I didn't dig, but also because of lack of opponents. Still love the game though, and would love to play it again. That's it basically. Nerds know how to have fun! To iszienot: "I used to play magic too when I was 12. I was pretty good at it and my complete deck was worth about 200 euros or something. I used to play with a complete red deck. 4 bolts (1 mana-> 3 damage), 2 eathquakes, 4 wildfires, 4 mishra's factories and a couple of other cards I can't remember anymore. it was mostly a destroy deck.

Heh.... I just remembered, I had a couple of artifact decks too... fucking deadly stuff. I used to just build up ornothopters with a whole bunch of enchantments, and then make it so that the enchantments would last with the ornithopter whenever I would need to reincarnate them, and then destroy their land with my demonic hordes (always threw one of these in, with a couple dopplegangers), and then keep them just barely alive for hours untill they would forfeit. The game was rarely fun to me unless I made someone uncomfortable. |

clint that should sort you out, I have to play a creature first |

I hate mtg after the odyssey block.... all the cards after that are played with the mentality of "my biggest most expensive rare vs. yours" it's not about awesome combo choices made up of cards that suck on their own, but are awesome in tandem, anymore. its all about having a 13/13 flying trample that doesnt tap when it attacks. I can't stand the new card layout either, it looks fucking cheesy as shit. |

It's a rip-off of Pokemon the trading cards game. That was the only "card game" i ever got into and it will be the only one. Looking back I spent ridiculously huge amounts of money for pieces of coloured card (although..... some of them were shiny *shiny*). |

I used to play this because of a friend, never liked it that much but fell for it, and spent loads of $$ on stoopid cards until I realized how stupid this fucking game is. Now I'm alergic to it, kinda, well not really, but I'll never play again. Not even if they aske me to and I have nothing to do. |

At the risk of defending Pokemon :S Magic cards' popularity soared with the pokemon trading cards phenomenon. It was an underground game played D&D fanatics until pokemon blasted open the way to the mass consumer market. Both games are a huge waste of money at I can't believe I was ever part of it. |

saying that spending money on these games is stupid, is pretty stupid. When you started spending money on these cards, it was a lot of fun. You could have sold most of them when you quit. If you still have them, it's pretty sad to go complaining over the fact that you ever bought them in the first place. I still have a pretty nice collection that i will probably never sell, regardless of the value. I just dont see what good a few bucks is for a couple of cards, which i'll just spend on alcohol now. mtg is still fun because its a very solid game with bendable rules and it has great artwork. fact. Though it did go downhill with the new layout cards. i'm not sure to who this post is directed but thats ok. |

spending money on these games is stupid because you could as well create your own game (or use proxies for that matter) and it would be alot more fun. the thing that made me quit is that I realized that to get into this game game you depended on what wizards decided to create next, wich wasn't anything exciting or original at all, ever. These games are very stupid because geting into them is just pretty lame. and then you got to meet these over obssesed fan-geeks of mtg that could only talk about combos and, in general, just really silly things. |

also, the cards were fucking expensive. |

lately i've been playing some more simple (and not collectible) card games with friends... a good alternative when bored of other games. i especially like Citadels (not sure about the english title, Citadelles in french) and Munchkin. |

still - you said Magic was a rip-off of Pokemon, which is just completely wrong. you're not defending pokemon, you just started to talk about a completely different aspect of these games. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I know it was wrong to call it a rip-off but if pokemon hadn't become so popular Magic would probably still be a relatively underground game. It's true though that I'm only talking about the Trading cards aspect of the two games, in respect with the other aspects I have no opinion and thus my comments can't be used on let's say the gameboy game or the mythology behind the games etc. |
