I used to play until the rules changed so much it wasn't fun anymore. I also got stuck playing with people who wanted to play every game with tourney rules which banned or restricted most of my decks.

It's been about 9 years since I last played, I do kind of miss it.

You guys should sell me your cards then.

Also the new set is pretty good. Some wicked new mechanics.

I think you're talking about "the stack," right, Jonas? I didn't care for it that much either. When I started Magic it was "fast-effects, interrupts, instants, sorceries." Now it's some "first in last out" BSry.

I played this game years ago. I liked it but the rules seemed to change with every new set. Plus, with my zombie and comic book hobbies, MAGIC had to go.

I played when the first Generation decks came out, and quite sometime around the Fallen EMpire pack, and 4th gen standard deck release.

I have an Undead deck, mostly Vampires.

I friend of mine tried to get me into it 10 years ago. But I could not get into the grove of playing it.

I never really liked Magic: the Gathering and thought it blew an ill wind into the tabletop gaming community. A plague wind.

I'm sure it's not all that bad though. :)

A pox on it! And all it's kind!

It was sort of a side thing for our group. And we still do the classic tabletop RPGs you know. So no real ill effects were had.
