sadly, I don't have the online thing. I ought to check it out. I just spent 6 bucks yesterday and got a quire rare infernal tutor for my rahkdos deck. It made me dance.
Yeah, I used to play MTG. I played it 3 years or something ending up with an "affinity deck". The Mirrodin mainstream one .
I'm not buying any card anymore, because my friends stopped playing and I lost interest. Maybe later again...
I love Dissension's Rakdos...got a deck wirth about $40 including the tutor, the blood witch, rat catcher, stalking vengance, nihilistic glee, and quite a few other hard to find cards. It works rather amusingly, I get a certain set of cards going and I hit you with shades and rats, if you block them to kill them then I sacrafice them to do more damage to you than you blocked. Also have a few ways to draw additional cards.
I could never get into these kinds of games for some reason ... probably because i never had a real shot at it. I have heard about MTG for ages but i never played it ... perhaps i should one day.

Yep. Grab a friend who plays it and ask him to explain the basic rules to you. Maybe he's even kind enough to make you a magic deck from his spare cards to start it off.
Once you got the knack of it, grab MANY friends and play a FFA multiplayer game with 10 players. Now that's real magic. But ban mass removal. Getting your creatures killed all the time by wrath of god variants suckz.
nothing to do except watch em scworm!
