It’s not expensive if you get blessed by rngesus in pack openings.

(I really hate the guy at my local that opened some packs near us and got 2 draconic diagram) [Another 40$ card]

This is why online ccg appeals way more to me than live ccgs.

Ah, but that’s how they get you! One super awesome pack and you’re hooked forever! I don’t remember any significant moments for Yu-Gi-Oh aside from getting a Dark Magician Girl in my first ever Magician’s Force pack, but MTG has blessed me one time. A pack of Alara I opened had a foiled Rafiq of the Many and Elspeth in it (totalling $90 at the time it was opened).

Personally, I enjoy online CCGs for being cheaper and because being a digital game enables different unique abilities and methods of play that TCGs cannot.

YGO has always had consistently bad templating, and power oriented errata that makes cards specifically behave differently from how they are printed, without a sweeping precedent rule change. This is why I stopped playing Yu-Gi-Mons, and picked up MtG. MtG errata is focused on minimal changes to power, but instead is entirely about making the oracle text deliver the clearest, least interpretation dense version of the card that can be created with the game’s current language.

Why should I play a game where my Dark Necrofear’s ability changes and has had even more text invisibly stapled to it, to prevent me from utilizing a functionality I once enjoyed and was encouraged to build around with it? The answer is simple- I shouldn’t. The mechanics are shallow, the internal language is unintelligible, the game lacks any throttling system, and counterplay was stifled by banning the best answer cards immediately. The only resource is cards and life, so card draw is at a premium, which means that the game inevitably slivers down into very narrow combo races.

Also, my friend taunts me because there is a character in that universe with my RL name and multiple cards depicting them.

It occurs to me, I have not seen hide nor hair of maelrawn in some time. I wonder what they’re plotting now…

Grab me on Discord (if you search “Paralykeet” in the Duelyst official, you’ll find me… and my shameful display of “art” that I make xD), I’ll invite you to his hosted channel so that you can ask him yourself.

Speaking of things I wish we’re anime, I recently discovered there was an animated trailer for a game I love very dearly: Soul Sacrifice Delta. I wish it were turned into a full series. I’d watch it in a heartbeat.

I would link it myself but I’m on my phone at the moment and I’m lazy.


I liked the game enough, I’m running a Pathfinder campaign based on it. Having a blast.

You’re maelrawn? I thought you were two different people

lol No. I am not Maelrawn. I’m just in the discord server he hosts, and offered to invite Longshot to it if he wants to talk to Mael.

I have been wanting to try MtG for a while now. Is it worth?

Personally, I enjoy the game. I stopped however because it is very expensive. It wears the nickname “cardboard crack” very well.

If you choose to play, get a starter deck or an online copy of the game to test the water. If you enjoy it enough, I’d recommend theory crafting a deck and purchasing cards online from websites like tcgplayer to build it. It will seem expensive but it’ll be cheaper in the long run.

Also, if you do try it, look into the “commander” game type. It is extremely fun (just make sure you know others who play it as well).

Commander is definitely the way to go. It’s the best way to learn, most Commander players that I hang with don’t spend crazy amounts of time trying to assign speculative dollar value to very pretty pieces of cardstock unless it goes for over $5-ish. Commander also encourages you to acquire over time, and flesh out the decks which tends to run far less on impulse. I’ve probably spend quite a bit of my Commander decks, but over such a period of time that it’s never put a noticeable dent in my wallet.
