It's fun... it's not too complicated... it may seem like it at first, but once you get the hang of things it seems pretty simple, really... Yep... it's fun...


not to mention the fact that a beta black lotus is worth somewhere around 400$ (at least it was, i haven't played for two years)

I stopped playing because I got sick of the whole "ok, it's been 18 months, now you must buy new cards cause we just made yours worthless" BS that WOCT kept churning out.

How do they make them worthless? I know that they ban cards sometimes because they end up becoming way too powerful and stuff, but like if you're just playing with friends, chances are none of them would really care... at least that's how it is around here O.o

But if you play in tournaments or like at Wizards of the Coast stores then they might be like "NOOO YOU CANNOT PLAY *locks the store up* YOU CANNOT LEAVE BEFORE BUYING MORE CARDS AHAHAHAHAHAHA!" or something

I bought a 2 player starter deck a few years ago which I played about 3 games with. I never really got into it that much.

Does anybody remember the ads for it? They were pretty creepy, I thought it was some kind of Voodoo or something when I saw them.
