I'm serious about sending your magic cards to me for Top Dollar Cash.

I know all the prices better than anyone else and I've been playing since the first set(Alpha) in 1993.

I've won more magic tournaments than footbag events.

I really don't have that many cards! 19 times 60 equals uhhh well I can't be bothered to figure it out. I never take any of my decks apart, I just try to make them better and better. Most of my decks have cost me upwards of 50$ a piece, so taking them apart is not an option hehe.
So then you know about apprentice? I have all my decks on there and they do pretty damn good against most people, cept when I get mana screwed, which happens far too much for my liking.
I like Ravnica more than any other set, it really makes playing two colors easy and fun. Ten guilds to battle it out.

Yeah most of those cards listed aren't worth much, besides the force of wills

I've got 2 foil voidslimes...boooyaa!
I am going to bring at least 10 of my decks to kickass 2, hope ya'll can keep up!

But yeah, seriously, footbag is waaaaaaaaaaay cooler than magic, like monumentally. Just today while I was havin' a cig with my buddies I touched icarus and hit both my mobs like it was syrup on pancakes.
That's way better than a foil watery grave any day of the week

i was thinking about trying magic. is it hard to learn?

Spontaneous Spaz · Post by **Spontaneous Spaz** » 06 Sep 2006 13:00

the only hard thing about it, is the "stack" (the order inwhich certain spells/instants/abilities react).

other than that... its easy:

2 kidns of cards: lands and spells

lands = basic lands (swamp,island,mountain,forest,plains), and nonbasic lands (stuff like city of brass...anything nonbasic)

spells = enchantments, artifacts, creatures, sorceries, and instants.

and each turn is set up like this:

untap step
upkeep
draw step
main phase (precombat)
combat phase
main phase (postcombat)
end of turn
(clean up, if you have more than 7 cards in hand, discard till 7)

you can only play spells during you main phases, and may only play one land per turn
each land creates some kind of "mana" color (black, white, red, blue, green, colorless). in order to use a land you "tap" it
each spell has a "manacost" an example is: green green 3 (colorless) = converted manacolst - 5
you'd need to tap 2 forests to obtain the 2 green and 3 of any other color to pay for the other 3 colorless mana needed to play the spell.

you can play instants and abilities anytime you want, but it goes on the "stack" - which works in reverse...so an example:
the opponent plays a spell that "returns a creature from his/her graveyard to play", in response you play a card that "shuffles target player's graveyard into his/her library"... thus the targeted creature is no longer in the graveyard and the opponent's spell fizzles (has no target and is countered).

i can go on... but w/e..

edit: god i'm such a nerd

It's not that hard to learn.

It's just a major drain on your money, life and time. So if you don't have any extra time or money lying around, you should consider not getting into it. Footbag is a much more rewarding hobby to pursue IMO.

Magic is really one of the more basic TCG/CCG games around. the only hard part, like ws mentioned, is "The Stack"

Its fairly easy to learn basic rules, but as you go more into it it gets harder and more complex(Like the transition from learning delays, to moving into 2 add tricks and being totally tiltless, or whatever it is).

A really hard card game to play is Legend of the 5 rings, and the WARS CCG

thats my magical input for today

Would you be willing to trade any bags for the cards I have. I have quite a few. I loved the bags I got from you a bit ago. If you're interested pm me what kinda stuff you like.
