I just dug out my old decks and had fun beating the crap outta my friend with them. I'd like to expand my decks a bit since the last time I bought cards was way back when Ice Age was released. :Q

What are the best expansions since then? I've heard Invasion was decent and I read some buzz about the upcoming Torment..
If you have advice or maybe if you want to sell some cards lemme know. :p

Absolutely. My friends and I "brought it back" last year. Bought booster boxes, the whole shebang (shabang?). We play it whenever we are not posting on ATOT :)

Dude, you know it's 50/50 now. You only are winning half of the time. Just admit it. My deck is a biatch.

No more MTG here, I won too easily back in the day when they seperated Type I and Type II. Most of my decks revolved around The Vice, direct damage, land destruction or balance. Heck, the decks I won numerous tournaments with, most of the cards were restricted then and banned now -- total BS.

At any rate, my best MTG moment is when we were playing 2v2. My buddy and I were 4 colors (no white) and basically were direct damage and The Vice kills. The two guys we were up against were Eureka decks. They cast Eureka and throw down some massive creatures and just stomp my friend out. Now its me, against two Eureka decks and they have like 4 8/8 creatures out and are willing to take damage on upkeep.

I look at my hand and cast Underworld dreams and Time Twiser (they had Mana Flare out, so that helped a lot). Each of the guys take 7 damage. Get my hand and I have lots of goodies, my Black Lotus is back, another Mox, land, Time Walk, Regrowth, and Wheel of Fortune. I basically take two more turns, inflicting damage to both guys and finally Wheel of Fortune again. As the next guy takes his turn, I Ancestral Recall him and he dies (he had three life after paying his upkeep, then the Ancestral killed him) and now its his buddy's turn. After he takes damage from The Vice, I double bolt him gone.

Didn't think I could pull it out, but it worked.

I can't stand MtG anymore ugh....

I'm really hooked on MageKnight: Dungeons and Z-G, though...

yup, magic has come back so many times. Its quality game.
Once I finally played it I wish I hadent wasted all my money other card games.
Of course, im not sure if my mother would really have wanted me getting magic cards in 4th grade.
