So we play Magic with a group of people at the store every Friday evenings – while I have someone to help me run the store. So it’s a win-win situation – you would think – but not without a present for the spouse from everlon of course – that kept her happy and she [...]
A friend had invited the entire family for a BBQ - in his cottage – which was actually one of those park model trailers – now I didn’t realized that they were so nice and that there were more than one family in the country having the same kind of model trailers. So while the [...]
Last week – we had the most players/gamers for Magic The Gathering – thanks to our trusty acer netbooks we were all able to get our scores recorded. I don’t know why the others bought their netbook – but when I bought my – it was for traveling – since it was so small and [...]
So we had a bbq at the store during our Magic the Gathering gaming day – invited a few customers randomly to come have a hotdog on a Friday and a few did show up. Everyone who came brought something with them – and one of them broughat a chocolate birthday Sharis Berries which the [...]
It used to have more than just squirrels in it, there were cats and snakes as well, and probably some other little critters I’m forgetting about now. And green lordish type things like Kaysa and Juniper Order Druid. The new version is going to be entirely squirrels if possible, with Doubling Season and some planeswalkers. [...]
Another Magic set is almost upon us and the spoilers are running rampant. So far this set is looking absolutely powerful. Lots of “new” mechanics, I say new because while Infect looks new it’s really just a combination of 2 old mechanics; wither and poison. Proliferate looks like it will be insane with Planeswalkers, and [...]
I’ve finally done it! I built the deck I’ve been thinking of since M11 was released. The Titanic. It was originally 20 Titans and 40 ways to get mana onto the table. Now it’s 20 Titans, 4 Clones, 4 Rite of Replication and 32 ways to get mana onto the table. It’s almost always a [...]
I was browsing through my one of my old card binders the other day, looking to see if any new deck ideas would pop into my head. While looking I realized there’s some cards from back then that could be re-made as new card types. Jandor’s Saddlebags would make a great equipment to put on [...]
I’ve been so out of touch with Magic over the last (great) number of years and so many changes have been made to the game that it took a while to really get back into and know what was going on. I’ve pretty much caught up on everything so I decided to take the Rules [...]
Having our little Magic tournaments on Saturday night just doesn’t seem to be working out that well. It started good, 10 people showed up, but then the next week only 5 and then the following week only 3. The problem is that the other shop in town plays Saturday afternoon, so by the time they [...]
Tonight was the first DCI sanctioned tournament at my store and overall I’d call it a success. 10 people showed up and had a good time. I placed 7th, the deck I built wasn’t very good. Even though I had play-tested an online version of it, I couldn’t find all the cards I needed out [...]
I’ve decided that while I’m not giving up completely on drafting online, I’m going to stick to Swiss drafts so I’ll at least get to play all 3 rounds, win or lose. Since making that decision I seem to be doing a little better. I bought 3 packs and drafted a few days ago, winning [...]
Took part in an M11 draft last night, I drafted mostly red and could have done mono-red but splashed in a little green for extra beefy creatures to use with Fling. I built the deck around 2 Chandra’s Spitfire, 2 Fling, 2 Fireball, 1 Lightning Bolt and some random red & green critters. Awakener Druid [...]
