YGO is fun, but it's kind of like the MvC3 to Magic's MvC2.

Crazy stuff just happens for no reason.

It's more like YGO is Tekken Magic is Street Fighter.

Depending on when you last played, there could be a lot of changes.

Damage change is the biggest one. Damage no longer uses the stack, you can no longer respond to damage. This means that you can no longer sacrifice your Mogg Fanatic and have him deal both combat damage and ability damage.

They also introduced a new card type, Planeswalker. They come in with a certain amount of counters, and can use an ability once per turn that gives/takes away counters in addition to having an effect. They can be attacked like regular players, or dealt damage through spells like Lightning Bolt like players (although the rules has a roundabout way of doing so)

Theyre both pretty what the hell now but Magic is still the better structured game, since the BS there is spread out instead of centralized like in YGO. Though I play standard so whatever, but I know Legacy is full of lol comboes, and no one I know plays Extended and/or Modern.

1 thing in YGO's favor it lacks the lamest thing in Magic at least.


Different Stokes for different folks. Soon as I get money/out of debt (and as soon as MagiMagi comes out) Ima invest in both again.
And WoW, since that TCG isnt half bad at all since I tried it.

I got into MTG around when Innistrad came out because my roommates were into it. Now I'm more into it than they are! It's fun to play...though it is kind of expensive. <_<

Still, playing friends using budget decks and messing around on the online simulators is really fun. >__>

I've had some fun getting into Magic a bit recently; I was only sort of interested for a while (more into YGO), though I did used to have a really terrible deck. In any case, I went to my first actual Magic thing and it was fun. I quite like Innistrad-DA.

So mad I don't have a Sorin yet. Him + Lingering Souls wins games.

I even have an emblem, ffs


*waves my Sorin around*

Makes up for doing so poorly on the draft, too.

We did the last one via Magic Workstation. It's not the best program around, but it gets the job done for the most part.

Saw you talking about him on the MTG board. Congrats and nice pull, man.

I got mixed up between rare drafting and trying to win, but drew a dumb B/U deck. I'll do better on Friday now that my pro friend (seriously) has given me pointers on drafting well. He wanted me to get wrecked once because he knows I only learn things the hard way, haha

Oh and Scep, not asking for a trade but let's say we knew each other hypothetically. What would you trade the Sorin for?


Well, I only really play casually, so I can't really answer that question. Right now, probably nothing since I'm planning to make a white/black token deck myself.

From: UltimaterializerX | #030
How do you guys do online tournaments?


For the last two we all got MTG Workstation; we had a Legacy and Sealed Deck tournament, it was fun.

Uhh there's plenty of OHKO's and infinites in Magic that still arent banned.

anyways yeah, DA is gonna make Black even better now, and Sorin is getting another card.

Ill just stick to Infect and GIDEON. Too bad I still can't afford to make my rainbow titan deck irl :(

To be fair, I buy a lot of Magic product. Box + like 4 (pre)release tournament + prizes. I did have to trade for one though, which was dumb because he's dropping in price already so WHOOPS

I would totally be down for another online sealed Magic tournament, but IMO if it does happen we should use Cockatrice instead. <_<

Sounds good except the Cockatrice part; I think I might still have it on my computer, but I don't see why it's better than Workstation.

in sealed that's kinda unusual, since aggro is often more of a plan B if you don't open any sweet bombs. m12 is pretty aggressive, though, so meh

also i'd be down for any kind of tournament.

Do you agree that Wild Hunger + Fling is the best combo in Dark Ascension?


No doubt that it's funny, but best? I prefer Hunger of the Howlpack + any undying creature right after it comes back.

Also, I won the FNM draft, and then came in second at the release event on Saturday, winning half a box. I'm liking the set so far.

Well other than how it looks I like the deck-building interface a LOT better. I guess there's not too big a difference otherwise.
