Has anyone played the game Magic, The Gathering? I'm a big fan. My goal is to teach Blossom how to play tonight and have her ready for a draft tournament on friday!

Yeah, I don't think I'll be ready for a tournament by Friday. I'll go to watch, and then maybe in a week or 2 (or the next draft one) I'll be able to go to the unknown and buy some cards and make a deck and play. It's a good thing there are so many people in Burger's apartment who can teach me to play (ie - everyone).

I play. Rather frequently.
I usually play a quick-aggro/beatdown deck, or a control/some-obscure-combo deck.

I really do like it, but I think I'd be better at it if I actually sat down and looked through all the cards and read all of what each of them does. The deck I've been using today is an all white deck.

I prefer control decks, but lately since I've been playing only type 2, I've been leaning more towards weenie token decks. I had a red-black aggro deck, but I can't stand playing aggro. Red black is one of my favorite color combinations though. that and black white and blue black.

I honestly love playing aggro. Getting creatures onto the board and attacking before my opponent can do anything's always been fun for me. whee
Especially with red/black. Jagged Poppet's one of the coolest cards ever.

Jagged poppet is second only to the avatar of discord. I like dread slag a bit too though. Avatar of woe is one of my all time favorite creatures though. THere's nothing like a 6/5 that can tap to kill and is hard to block for 2 mana.

I wonder how successful a blue white deck would be. Perhaps I should make 2 decks if I ever get really good. A deck for attack/slaughter and a deck for "strategery".

I really wish Blue Green wasn't as strong as it is, because I can't stand green, even when coupled with blue.

It really depends on how you use them, but red and green decks are usually my second least favorite. I even prefer mono-white to red green.

And you get direct damage spells with red cards. YOu know, like Shock and VOlcanic hammer and such. 3nodding
I had a red/green metaweenie for awhile, and it did alright, but it gets realllly boring to play.
