Sorry I know it's something you have little to no experience with buddy

turn ten top deck an azure drake to top deck a *3* damage consecration for the huge board wipe and the ultimate win feels soo good.

I have little experience, women suck and are a waste of time unless your 100 percent committed to settling down for good. Why bother putting effort in if you don't think it could work.. Single is the way to go until you're ready for the big step.
EDIT: I'm actually being serious too, if anyone was remotely wondering if there was a hint sarcasm there.
second EDIT: I guess I should clarify, I have a ton of women friends and even consider some to be best friends of mine but I just never saw the point of dating/breaking up/dating singling out your friends cause a girl said so or having to turn down plans because it may not be able to include your gf.. lol
third edit: TL:DR commitment issues.

My mom doesn't go for little boys. Maybe once you hit puberty.

Hey good comeback

Hey guys, I need some help.
I'm going to be in a beginners MtG tourney in around a month, and I need help building my deck.
The cards can only be from Theros/Born of the Gods, though I can also use guildgates.
I have never played MtG, and I don't own any cards. My idea on how to get started building a deck was to get a Born of the Gods battle booster pack, and then get a couple cards packs. I have around $150.00 to spend on this little project. I was also looking at getting individual cards off the internet, but I don't want to just netdeck a competitive level deck, and I was hoping to get some input from one of you more experienced MtGers.
For what kind of deck, from my Hearthstone and other TCG experience, I like playing control, and some of the more combo oriented mid-range decks. I play mostly Watcher/Undead variants of Priest, Handlock, and some later game Shaman, if that gives you some perspective.
Any ideas where to start?

Take a look on the decks here: http://www.mtgtop8.com/format?f=BL
lol it seems like the block format is dominated by Naya midrange
|
Play naya or just GW/RW Heroic. The white Heroic Dudes are really really good in block. Either that or try and do something stupid with Pack Rat.
|
Cool. Would you start out buy buying card packs to get the basic cards, or just straight buy the exact cards you need from a site like www.magicstronghold.com?
|
if you know what deck you want to play, buy singles directly. I recommend tcgplayer.com for buying cards.
|
Thanks. I'll have to spend some time deciding what kind of deck I want to run, and then do some theory crafting. For lands, do most people run things like Guildgates or shock lands, or are base lands sufficient? If I'm running a GW deck, is it necessary to buy 4 of the Selesnya Guildgate?

Don't listen to this guy, he doesn't know MtG at all. Instead just play mono red burn.
Enjoy your win.
P.S. I'll accept any prize earnings you throw my way.

it depends but I'd imagine a GW deck would run 4 temple garden and 4 temple of plenty.
