I'm going to start playing as soon as I get my hands on some cards.
I'm getting decks tomorrow!
Already have like 400 cards but most are doubles/useless, and they're all really old ones, and I'm too new to form a deck with them. So, getting 4 decks and a few booster packs tomorrow, i'll post tomorrow if I get anything cool :D

Wat.
Build some damn decks man. Its not hard.
I fear i don't even have enough lands. Wait, did it say 600? Editing then, cuz i meanth 400, but i guess it's still enough to build a deck.
I'm so new! I only have the cards cuz my mom bought em really cheap, she found they "looked nice", I was too young at the time anyway. Just recently found the thread and I guess it's worth playing.
Hints and tips at building decks?
Hearts, and informations to you!

I think that covers making a deck pretty well.
Also, is there a minimum hand size? If i were to have 1 card in my hand, am I allowed to draw more cards at the next start of the turn or will i just have 2 next turn?
And a few pages back i saw a card that reduced hostile hand size by 7. Isn't the normal hand size 7? Meaning they have to use every card they have each turn, unless they increase it?
[QUOTE=eternalflamez;34957544]Also, is there a minimum hand size?[/QUOTE]
Nope.
The card you're talking about must be the dick blue praetor.
Still getting some decks/boosters though.
[QUOTE=TheWhiteFox1;34946567]Just started playing this about a month ago. I'm absolutely terrible at it though, as my friend managed to beat me with a white deck, that gave him about 15 mana in the first 4 turns, and enchanted a single creature to a 15/15 before I even managed to attack.
Does anyone know good cards for a red deck?[/QUOTE]
Goblins. Never underestimate them, as most do. Get 4 goblin grenades and a bunch of cheap goblins, and you're all set.

Booooringg
Has anyone here ever made decks so effective that you don't even find them fun to play with?

I once put two [url=http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=175035]Ethersworn Adjudicator[/url] in my Esper deck, it ended up me just owning the whole board with it, it was no fun so I got rid of them.
My Red/white deck is also getting ridiculously aggressive and fast its not even fun to play with it anymore.

I'm still gonna work on it some more, it has some pretty cool potential.
[editline]3rd March 2012[/editline]
Maybe I'll make it a little bit slower, use [url=http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=83618]Sunforger[/url] and [url=http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=83572]Master Warcraft[/url]
And throw in [url=http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=89061]Razia[/url] just for flavour.
[editline]3rd March 2012[/editline]
Holy shit lol
the most hilarious thing just happened as I was playing archenemy in the MtG PC game.
I got [url]http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=78965[/url] this guy in my graveyard, then a scheme saying that the life total of my opponents goes to the lowest of my opponents and one of the opponents got just 2 life.
and I have [url]http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=247416[/url] in my hand.
This is so fucking black.
anyone want to play on cockatrice some time? i'm mostly testing/learning decks for modern
I picked up one of these things

Seemed like a pretty good deal.

Yeah, made a mir and artifact deck that destroyed everything. Had [URL="http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=178018"]Draco[/URL], [URL="http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=174931"]Ethersworn Canonist[/URL], [URL="http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=212632"]Karn [/URL](non-plainswalker), [URL="http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=215098"]Kuldotha Forgemaster[/URL], [URL="http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=220532"]Memnarch[/URL], [URL="http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=51136"]Mycosynth Golem[/URL], and a few others. Destroyed the deck because no one would play after the first time I beat them. I know I only worked off of like 10 lands because of the mirs that gave me unlimited mana.

Jesus. Did you have Thoughtcast in the deck as well?
I still have a mono-green Vigor deck built using [url=http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=140227]Vigor[/url], [url=http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=205111]Prized Unicorn[/url], [url=http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=193451]Tajuru Preserver[/url], [url=http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=221559]Green Sun's Zenith[/url], [url=http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=241990]Autumn's Veil[/url] and [url=http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=220210]Dungrove Elder[/url]. Also ramp and hexproof.
dungroves huehuahueah all the way to the win.
Thrun is ridiculous as well.
I've become some sort of ridiculous EDH savant and in the last two days I've won games in the most convoluted, jankiest ways.
Hello.
Remember that time when you said "ha, who would be dumb enough to use rentless rats anyway?"
That was me.
And I built a whole deck around them.
Relentless Rats.dek is bad and sad

Not like it is hard to build a deck around them, you just need a couple of thrumming stones and a lot of the rats with a sideboard of removal just in case
[QUOTE=suppertime;35078761]Relentless Rats.dek is bad and sad[/QUOTE]
Agreed, it's utter shit. But that's not the point.
I'm thinking of sticking a Prototype Portal into one of my EDH decks just so I can imprint an artifact land or a sol ring to it.
Most of my friends play extremely casually and the ones that actually know how to play well usually just want to play Yugioh. So hard to get a decent game in where my casual friends don't want to play a multiplayer game and gang up on me.
Build an optimized deck, if they gang up on you then crush them all
[QUOTE=suppertime;35115798]Build an optimized deck, if they gang up on you then crush them all[/QUOTE]
The thing is, they are so bad I still have a good chance of winning 1v2 while using my standard deck and they are using their decks that run old stuff like painter's servant and grindstone.
[editline]13th March 2012[/editline]
Although I should also revamp my "stasis" deck because that seems to piss them off a lot. I say "stasis" because I don't even run kismet in it

Same here, but they don't play with me anymore because I'm too good.

One guy complains about every deck I use because they are "annoying". The same guy is the guy who runs the mill deck with 4 painter's servant, 4 Grindstone, and 4 Jace, Memory Adept.
He also complains when I target his plainswalker and always says he would have won if I didn't :v:

He needs to be lobotomized
Still a little shaky on a couple rules. If I have a card that gives me colorless mana, does that mana only stay till the end of the turn or does it stay in my pool for the rest of the game. Same goes for creatures that have the ability to give me a certain color.
