it's a fun game but i recommend Virtual Playtable as opposed to buying all the cards

there's a pack that comes with hundreds of pre-built decks that a buddy and I were able to play over and over without re-using a deck

i'm sure you can build decks too, we just never bothered

I kinda wanna use physical cards. it's part of the draw.

I tried to get into it. I used to have starter noob decks for each color. and I played a few games with some people at a community college but then it stopped. it's basically kinda like Hearthstone. that game is based on Magic the Gathering

Never get packs, just buy the individual cards. You'll be saving so much money that way. Also, don't play stadard, buy into Modern. It'll be much more expensive in the beginning, but you'll be saving a lot of money in the long run.

Individual cards are the way to go if you have a vision for a type of deck you want to run. But I also find Draft tournaments really valuable where you open packs, and pass them around, then get to keep your cards at the end. Most shops will give you packs as rewards, too. It's a good way to start a collection so you can build multiple decks.

Buy a digital version. No need to memorize anything and you get tons of cards.

Theyre releasing some pretty good pre constructed decks soon, if youre wanting to wait a month, the challenger decks look quite legit.

you could also just use cockatrice, which gives you access to everything, along with a free form interface for whatever sort of game you want to play

I love mtg and wish I had somewhere to play. Place I used to go to has been shut down for quite a while. I get a pack or two every once in a while. Love opening booster packs. Hopes are usually shattered though lol. I did get lucky and score some used cards a while ago. Got around 300 cards for $9. Would be great if I could do that more often.

I play Hearthstone digitally and i dig it. I used to play Magic back in high school. But that was 13 years ago.

Lol at scrubs whose dicks could fit inside a Magic card. Maybe when I was 5 mine would have.
