Is there any fan of Magic The Gathering game? - GoFuckYourself.com

...just wondder

Sly_RJ · 06-25-2003, 04:37 PM

Cool game, haven't played in years. Have a box of cards sitting in my closet. Think my little brother still has weekly tournaments with his friends.

KidCock · 06-25-2003, 04:39 PM

I played during the Revised - 4th edition period......still have tons of cards someplace.

strobi · 06-25-2003, 04:43 PM

started playing from beta up until 4th edition than lost intrest... Still have a few moxes in my closet

gothweb · 06-25-2003, 04:45 PM

I think I started playing when the revised edition came out. Just after Legends were out. I still have some of my cards somewhere, probably back at my parents' place. Cool game, though.

jpv · 06-25-2003, 05:19 PM

I started during revised. I competed in alot of big tournaments in the late 90's... Pro Tour Qualifiers, states, regionals, I even went to nationals one year. I played with some of the top players in the world. Very cool times.

The most complicated and involved strategy game I have ever played. The prize money on the Pro Tour is several million dollars per year right now. It is really getting popular. But the game is very time consuming. I practiced for at least 40 hours per week to try to stay competitive for tournaments. I quit when I started working in this biz almost 5 years ago. But I still play and go to tournaments once in a while.

Lane · 06-25-2003, 05:20 PM

I used to love that game.

I had to stop playing when I started wasting too much money and too much time.

MTG online is extremly addicting too.

High Quality · 06-25-2003, 05:22 PM

I have 2 complete sets of 3rd edition (and 8 forks) sitting in my uncle's closet just accumulating value.

It was a good game. Weak tho, as a $20 white deck could beat anything.

bogo · 06-25-2003, 05:23 PM

Return to Castle Wolfenstein is yhe only game you need..

Oh Christ. There's an online game? This could kill me. Fill me in.

fnet · 06-25-2003, 05:23 PM

er, well, i have a full set of the alpha moxes, and i appreciate the highest order of game complexity thing sort of, but i actually play about once every two years.

the new editions are more balanced. you need at least $100-200 for a superb deck.

I warn you. Once you get in, its hard to get out. You can find opponents almost instantly. You can't stop playing and wasting more and more money on cards. Well thats what happened to me. There are tourneys and everything. Its really fun.

Tala · 06-25-2003, 05:29 PM

I have a trunk full of cards that I'm considering selling since I don't have time for it anymore. I have no idea what all is in there, nothing older than 5th edition though, and a complete set of nemesis. Probably around 1000 cards total, plus decks that I've built, (some EVIL fucking decks in there)

KidCock · 06-25-2003, 05:31 PM

Yeah but it was fun building creative, low-cost decks that kicked the ass of kids who got their parents to buy them boxes and boxes ;p

It started getting boring though when everyone started cloning decks (ie. goblin, merfolk, white weenie).....but again, it's easy to build a deck to beat those

Backov · 06-25-2003, 05:33 PM

Ick..

I have a few boxes full of cards. I even bought a few moxes last year when some poor schlub wanted to sell them. They're sitting in sleeves.

I love the game.

I play MTG:O - or used to before I wrenched myself away from it. Was wasting far too much time playing.

One of the good things about it, is that the players on there are SO competitive. You rarely see a boneheaded mistake, like I used to see all the time playing IRL.

tootie · 06-25-2003, 05:34 PM

We buy collections. We love to grab old collections and go through them for fun. We do that on eBay occasionally. It's like Christmas even when we don't get anything really good out of it.

Greg B · 06-25-2003, 06:53 PM

I used to work for Acclaim Interactive's 'Valiant Comics' where I drew comic books.

I recall they either picked up the Magic series or a co-worker went to work for them.

I remember the artwork on some of the cards was great.

TheFLY · 06-25-2003, 06:56 PM

I used to play back in college.

Greg B · 06-25-2003, 07:05 PM

I also did a TimeWalker episode #14. But don't have the cover scanned.

Too straightforward. They removed pretty much every straightforward spell..

Its replacement:

CounterSpel (one l) BBB

Counter target spell unless casting player shouts "I am a big fucking dork!" as loud as he can, and wins a coin toss. Discard a card. Madness BRW

They're really getting out of hand.

chowda · 06-25-2003, 07:58 PM

i have the original cards.. with black borders too.. i just dont know where they are.

man i was in high school.. they banned playing them coz they got stolen

JDog · 06-25-2003, 07:59 PM

use to play it. probably have some cards in my storage! Haven't played in atleast 7 yrs!

jDoG

psyko514 · 06-25-2003, 11:47 PM

I got a few thousand of those lying around. Mostly revised, some 5th edition, Homelands, Ice Age, Legends, etc. I have a nearly complete set of Fallen Empires (ugh...).

I got into it because it was the "cool" thing. Never had much money or time to put into it, so I never had any powerful cards or great decks. I loved my black/green decks made of commons like Craw Wurm.

Honeyslut · 06-26-2003, 12:02 AM

I have some around here from when I owned a card/gift/book/comic shop

SilverTab · 06-26-2003, 12:19 AM

Royal Assassin was my fav....

iroc409 · 06-26-2003, 03:24 PM

lol.. hell yeah, i used to play quite a bit, actually. still have my cards, and even a scrye guy. had my killer blue deck that was worth a shitload of money.. slow starter but pounded the fuck out of people. i'd get down to 4 life before i could even attack someone else, but after that it was all over for them. people hated me. i wish that deck was still worth what it used to be (about $200)... all i was missing was dopplegangers. *sigh*

i was old-skool though, and pretty much quit playing quite some time ago

Beastiepoo · 06-26-2003, 03:29 PM

I HATE THAT GAME.

I played for a while. My boyfriend at the time got me into it. He was totally addicted to it though and started to spend his rent and bill money on cards and tournaments. Before long I was so in debt I couldn't dig out and I ended up hating him and hating myself for what I had to do just to make ends meet.

I'm seething now. Thanks.

iroc409 · 06-26-2003, 03:31 PM

i probably started playing like 8 years ago or so... not really sure what versions and stuff i have, but they're all pretty old. lol.. my blue deck had so many counter spells and everything, it was crazy. i might be looking to get rid of my stuff, but i keep the scrye guy.

did anyone else have a scrye guy??

tootie · 06-26-2003, 03:36 PM

Let me know if you want to get rid of any of it, iroc. When my husband gets back from errands today he might want to talk with you if you decide to get rid of anything.

nophest · 06-26-2003, 03:39 PM

Magic Tournaments were good, competition is exciting

Rictor · 06-26-2003, 04:04 PM

I play Magic. Haven't really gotten into playing it online...tried it...just seems like a waste of money when you can get the real cards for the same price or less.

The deck that won the world championships (and a $250,000 prize) a few years back used several copies of that card. It's a great card, especially in the deck it was used in.

KidCock · 06-26-2003, 04:21 PM

Wooo I found I have the artwork for "The Fallen" (card from legends) signed and framed. I won it in a tourny once, anyone interested in it ?
