    I'm pretty sure I'm not the only here that plays. I just got back from FNM and my second brony encounter. A guy who I was sitting across from and he had Luna, Queen of the Moon which was modded a Oona, Queen of the Fae card. Anyone else?

    Yeah, I play. Normally theme decks like my angel and demon decks. I also have a rather good grixis coloured Nicol Bolas deck which plays massive amount of Terminate and Mystic Retrival.

    I also have a cutom pony deck made from Magic set editor.

    I love playing Magic. I don't know if there's a shop that hosts tournaments or sells cards near my college, but I'll be looking for one this Fall.

    Well, I may love it, but I'm not very good. What I really need is more people to play with so I can practice, and somewhere to buy singles, so I can give my decks more stuff.

    For real.

    Used to play and be pretty decent at it but haven't played in 3 or 4 years so I'd probably have to re-learn to play it.

    Bam! *revive*

    I love magic! I play it since i was a little kid, but had some years of a break. Now all my friends are starting to play. Its fun, but its hard to keep up with the new cards, since i play cards from Generation 5 and the actual generation is like 13 or 14?

    I have some hundred cards, but only a few assembled to decks. I mostly play my Goblin deck even though its not the best and im still missing some cards i want to have. ( Every few weeks i go to a shop that is selling single cards, but still havent found the ones i wanted.) I also have a pretty good green deck, which is very slow.

    Oh yeah and like one month ago we played a Booster Draft Tournament (we were 6 people) in which i did a blue and white flying deck, which i want to make better too.

    Sooo... yes... i love Magic <3

    My BF used to play. he has thousands of cards in more than twenty folders. He'll probably be selling them within the year.

    He must have so many cards that are identical to eachother. How many cards are there in Magic: The Gathering anyway?

    I have a love-hate relationship with this game lol.

    I've only been playing for two years and some change. The cards and mechanics are awesome and all, but I can never find decent people to play with. I've stopped collecting them lately because of that and money reasons.

    Favorite blocks are Alara, Ravnica, and Innistrad. :D

    There's a shorter list of cards that aren't in Magic. XD

    I have assembled my own green/white/blue enchantment-based deck, revolving around Greater Auramancy to give shroud to my beasties. So far it's worked pretty good against my friends. :3

    I haven't played in a year or so though. But recently me and my friend decided we should pick it up again!

    The last complete deck I built was a green/white Human deck using strictly Innistrad cards. It was based around, well, green/white being green/white. It didn't have a specific win strategy but relied on general synergy to produce lots of buffed creatures. Stuff like opening with Champion of the Parish and Thraben Doomsayer. Then Cathars' Crusade and Requiem Angel on the later turns, for god mode.

    My personal favorite deck though is my Izzet deck, which I never actually finished retooling (with the release of RtR this year). Gelectrode plus Curiosity, Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind, and then as many burn and draw spells as I could fit. Fireworks!

    I like magic a lot. It's deep with a lot of choices and cool things in it. I like Red, black and green mainly. I don't have very many people to play with though.

    Off Topic: my first thread post in a few months.
