I only play irl drafts (aka, limited)

I don't think I'll ever value digital cards tbh.

There's probably a game store in whatever city is near you... if there is a city near you lol.

I've met some pretty cool dudes at FNM. Keeps me wanting to go back.


I live down the road from a card/comic shop. I forgot to ask them if they have any gatherings there. I'll have to remember next time I'm there buying the kids some comics. I'd prefer to play irl as well for the value and interaction. It'd be easier to learn that way too.

You play irl or online? I've never played and I'm looking to get into it. Nobody here to play the real thing with, although I bought two beginner decks recently.


download mtg arena. it'll teach you how to play. Or do drafts (what terps did). They're 10-12 bucks depending on store, and it's a very good way to learn how to play since everyone is on an even footing (minus experience ofc). Currently in beta

FNM:

Good: Drafted a $10 and $20 card, which paid for 2 drafts essentially

Bad: Got shitty luck against my last opponent (mulliganed and had to keep bad hands); also made a blunder in game two, although I might have lost anyway. At least I came in second, but pretty disappointed because my deck was awesome were it not for shitty draws (also surveiled through 7 straight lands, which is bs).

lolrip. what 2 cards?

also how is your LGS doing? Unfortunately the one i go to is about to go under (pretty much already has, been closed all week). There's another, much bigger store but the parking situation is blah, can't just go outside to smoke a bowl like i could at the shop i go to. Alot of people think that unless you're a big shop then it's only a matter of time before you go under.

I'm sure they do FNM if they sell cards there.

It's going to be hard to learn w/o some friends to play with regularly though.

If your kid's old enough, you might consider bringing him along. There's like 2 or 3 father/son duos who frequent my local store lol.

And like kold said, mtg Arena is, I think, free to download. If you just want to learn the game, playing their precon decks against AI is one way. But it's one of those "free" games where they want you to buy currency to actually have fun /w shit.

I drafted Ral, Izzet Viceroy pack 1 pick 1 (guess he's more like $6 now)
And Doom Whisperer Pack 3 pick 1 (thankfully was going Dimir already)

I like my LGS. No problem getting drafts to fill, good people, roomy location, room for people to smoke outside lol. The last few weeks, FNM has ranged from ~10 to ~22 people in a given night (for limited).

Sorry to hear about your LGS. Bad parking would be a deal-breaker for me, most likely.

This is a general chat thread within a sports subforum within a Diablo 2 trading forum. That's like level 3 nerdception.

It's another one of those games I bought for Steam and never played, same as Neverwinter Nights.

I've played in the Forgotten Realms setting while playing DnD and visited Baldur's Gate though :lol:
