I have a self made dragon deck, black and red.
It runs Bladewing the Risen, bladewings Thrall, and Dragonspeaker Shaman, right?
I also owned a white green deck when I was in high school (1995) and it was awesome. That deck got stolen from me though.
I had that happen once. It was a R/G Land Destruction deck back in Onslaught/Mirrodin standard (Think late 2003) and it had playsets of Birds of Paradise, Wooded Foothills, Ravenous Baloth, all back when they were money cards. I'm almost positive I know who did it too. A Kid with a cooked head asked to look at it earlier, then it dissapeared when he did. I saw him once about 5 years later (seriously, his head was crooked, he's pretty distinctive) and considered confronting him about it but decided against it.
No one asked for it, but here it is. A thread all about Magic the Gathering!
Here's a link to my two favourite (and by far most expensive) decks:
Elves
Goblins
It's not very often that I feel really nerdy posting things on here. But right now, I feel really nerdy.
I don't have a link to it online but my favortie deck is my foiled out Zombie commander deck. Its not all that good, but it makes me happy.
My favorite deck I played in a tournament was probably
THIS. Damn thats worth a lot now... That tournament was insane. We drove to Detroit for it, which is a good six hours away, then I had to play Patrick Chapin in round 4 or 5, and this was a most a month after he took second at Worlds. We ended up drawing. Then look at that top 8. Chapin, Phillips, Boggemes, Yurchick, thats a Pro Tour top 8, not a PTQ.
What's important is that Friday is not part of this thread.
I don't build decks anymore because I can't be arsed. What I do is by a 4x playset of all the commons and uncommons of the sets and just draft them.
I buy a common/uncommon playset when each set comes out but I don't use them to draft, I just got tired of a few random uncommons being $3-5 a pop. I can get a set for about $20 and not have to worry about anything else.
Ice, there's a bunch of ways to learn. I believe the easiest might be Duels of the Planeswalkers which is a video game. I don't know what consoles it's on. Magic is an expensive hobby, but I think that's one way to learn. Another is intro packs. But the best might be going to a local gaming shop on a Friday and getting someone to teach you.
Duels is probably the best way to get familiar, and its on the XBOX and PS3 as a downloadable game. After that just go to the shop and play some. most players are friendly and would love to bring someone else into the fold.
...one of us. one of us. one of us.
