so who else is excited for mirrodin besieged? the spoilers seem really cool so far, but then again so did the SoM early spoilers and that set turned out to be a steaming pile of feces. im just pissed because i only get cards from drafting and that means ill only be getting one pack of MB every time and two packs of shitty ass SoM. oh and seems like infect is going to get a huge boost in limited. pisses me off because i hate drafting infect. its so annoying to just have to pick infect cards and then have alot of packs where its like pick 5... no playables. | ||

Besieged spoilers are looking pretty good. Even if the rest of the set ends up being terrible cards, there's already stuff worth picking up from what's been spoiled already so shruggggg. So many good green spoilers though, maybe it's time for me to track down all my elves... | ||

What my friends and I used to do was that you were allowed to draw the 7 cards as many times as you wanted (shuffle in between obv.), so you'd at least start off with a decent 7 cards. I guess that's not feasible with people who really know what they're doing, but it was a nice system for casual play. | ||

This works in any 52 deck cards... just put all the cards you want in a certain section of the deck, just shuttle by sliding the cards ( in groups ) andmake sure that group is always clumped up together and you'll get what you want... ( kinda like putting dice in some oven for a few minutes... | ||

Tezzeret is pretty good, the -1 ability could be pretty insane in artifact infect decks. Inkmoth Nexus is probably my favorite of the spoiled cards, I am going to try working with it in my Legacy Stax. | ||

I'm playing Blue/White flyers + 2 splashed arc trails. Other guy is Green/Black infect. At one point he gets Hand of the Praetors, plays a Mindslaver on me. I hold on just barely, drawing to the only out in my deck. A foil Mindslaver of my own! It's the 2nd last card in my deck, pull that baby out, force his guys into my chumpers, draw my last card with 0 cards left in deck and hit him back for lethal. | ||

Drafted an Elspeth! AMAZING. Was feeling good until deck construction when... servers went down. -_- Great, so basically the one time I get a sick card, technical error. Refunded, and drafted again. Game 3 after a close game and I'm about to win... Myr Battlesphere. Okay, fine. I still am about to win since I tumble it and attack with everything then, Sunblast Angel. Yeah, fuck MTGO. Go die in hell. | ||

I've always wanted to try Magic, but I don't want spend a fortune on it, just want to have some basic fun every once in a month or two (or more). Pauper doesn't cost much you can a buy 4x playset of all the commons for a set with <$10. If you want to play standard: B-R Vampires is the best aggro deck it runs about ~$80 and Valakut which is the most popular deck is pretty cheap as well. Online play most people just play draft. | ||

Just to take a example of what I mean, in League of Legends there is a system were you can either buy points to get skins and heroes or you can just play and you get points that will allow you to buy runes and hereos provided you play a ton of games. To me paying for virtual cards with real money just feels wrong. | ||
