Damn, I'll bet.

I started with The Dark, and exited after Ice Age. Fallen Empires and Homelands were just awful. The game is so much better now IMO. Every once in a while we buy a bunch of boosters and play a little closed tourney with 40 card decks.

do you remember "the deck"? 60 cards, only two of which dealt damage, one serra angel and one fireball timetwisted/regrowthed repeatedly? the last tournament i won was in north new jersey, i cant remember the name of the town..new carrollton? a necropotence deck. my final hand was swamp, 3x dark ritual, necro, hyppy, 2 knights, and contagion.

lately, i just have to enjoy reading all the cards in the decks i get lent to play against my friends new decks.

i myself am much happier in skyrim.

edit: i would me totally into those closed deck games. anyone in tokyo/yokohama wanna play?

Ha! A favorite of mine was a first turn ritual/hymn, and a second turn animate dead on a kid's discarded craw wurm. The look on his face was so great.

LOL. Sorry. I know it's like a recovered junkie staring at a bag of coke.

LOL That's a good feeling.

I had a ridiculous discard deck back in the day. All black, and all the regular suspects (racks, hyppies, hymns, underworld dreams, drain life's, rituals, etc.), except for 4 scrublands a Mox Pearl, a couple of disenchants, and two rocket launchers. Everyone always laughed at my rocket launchers, but they won so many games for me. Colorless damage that could be divided was so often a clincher. I was known as Mr. Tourach where we used to play. -Good times. :)

EDIT: There was a guy there with a version of 'the deck' that just had jade statues. I was his nemesis. It used to drive him nuts to play me.
