magic the gathering

S!
Does anyone here play MTG?

Hate to say yes especially at my age, but yeah. Only problem is, wife just had me get rid of all my cards. Twelve boxes worth (boxes had 3 rows was bigger than shoe box) I didn't sell, i took them to a local card tournament and gave boxes away for winning. Had a lot of fun and most of the kids were really excited about getting the cards as a gift. I also gave away 12 first release packs when gathering came out. Most tournaments do not allow you to use them, but sometimes they have a grandfather class tourney and those are exciting. Stupid wife.

LOL!!! So u just gave away a Ford Fiesta for the kids!! lol
did you have black lotus?

[Hastien]

Yes i had 3 of those cards. Like i said on T/S, it isn't about the money. Most of the kids that got the cards were very grateful and didn't have much money to get cards. I worked with most of the store owners and picked out kids from a lot of different areas to give away most of the bulk of cards. I did have 12 1st addition starter packs that weren't open and gave those as prizes for most of the winners as a bonus gift. The lotus cards were hidden in 3 different boxes which my wife did so i wouldn't play favoritism. i also gave away 6 of my Serre Angel cards and 12 lighting bolts all first additions. My favorite cards were the reds, but i loved my green combo cards of lure,destroy and rebirth. Lure brings all creatures to attack it, destroy kills all creatures that attack it with less health (could spend mana cards for more health) and regeneration (cost of 1 mana) brings the creatures back to life under your control. problem is getting them all out on table and keeping them there. I do have 3 red cards left that are my favorites that wife let me keep. It made me really happy seeing the excited faces of the kids that got cards. Wouldn't have done it any differently.
