Heck yea! SIiver Queen trolololol...

 

There are quite a few new slivers which were released recently too, quite a number from the Time Spiral block and now in Magic Core Set 2014!

 

On another note, it's the last day of Theros prerelease! hope whoever's playing in today's games will get good booster luck and win lots of matches!

i still have my old deck somewhere hahaha... Haven't played for a long long time hahahhahaha.... My favourite block set is Kamigawa   :P

 

Kamigawa is an awesome block! It holds so much flavour and the cards are great too! Impere uses an EDH deck with his commander being Azusa, Lost but Seeking and his deck is one to be reckon with... though our internal joke is that Azusa attempted plastic surgery and had obtained fail results =x hahaha

 

 

Sliver! I got a sliver deck too, but no sliver queen. Instead using sliver overlord.

 

Sliver Queen is so OP and expensive x.x I used to have a Sliver Overlord deck as well and gaining that insane board presence is just so fun hahaha

Just wondering who is still playing this? Got a deck but have not played for years.. Would love to have a noobie game or two.

We have a small playgroup, but we usually play EDH format tho.

Sorry but a noob question, can an old deck be used to play the "EDH" format?

Yes, if you fulfill the following criteria:

  • It is an EDH deck.
  • It does not contain any banned card(s) from the official ban list.
  • It does not contain any banned card(s) from the group's ban list.

Been  about 5 years since I've played Magic, and I picked it up from bunch of guys in camp who got me to play with them because we were so bored lol...

 

Anyway, I got a bunch of cards I wanted to make a deck out of, but I have forgotten how to play or form a deck. Anyone willing to help me out? 

 

Don't worry, I don't want anything in return. Well...maybe a guy to play MTG with/against regularly. 

 

If you are up to the challenge, PM me. No strings attached, and not looking for hookups. I really want to do something with the hundreds of cards I have in storage and actually play, yea? Peace! :)

I used to play MtG in camp as well. Loved Lorwyn and Alara blocks.

I probably still have my modern Merfolk and Living End deck lying around.

You have a merfolk deck as well? I was going for that last time I played! I have a number of those, as a matter of fact! Is there a merfolk Planeswalker btw?

i was going to say kiora but then i realised that 1) she's probably not a merfolk and 2) her abilities have nothing to do with merfolk... so well!

 

@xiaomessy - what's the group's ban list like? just came back to singapore and looking for a edh game or two, though my decks are all pretty stupid (starke of rath?! taniwha?!?). if you guys don't mind insanely stupid edh decks i'd love to join

Kiora IS a merfolk, but yeah her abilities are not relevant to her being merfolk.

 

I can't name what's on our ban list besides Winter Orb lol. It's the only card we unanimously decided shall not see play. EVER.

There are other hated cards of course, but they're not banned in our group, just inclined to attract aggression from around the table towards you.

 

We welcome new players but the group have been playing EDH for a few years so the power level here is not the best for insanely stupid decks. It's fine to bring them but just be mentally prepared haha

Went and did a little research, and found that Kiora is better for like, blue elementals and leviathans than merfolk, in spite of being merfolk herself. But that kind of dealy is quite common amongst planeswalker. I think, if anything, merfolk would be better as a deck without planeswalkers, or would be better with one of Jace's Planeswalker abilities while multiplying.

First off, am I right to say that "EDH" refers to commander decks?

 

Also, how do you find or establish groups to play MTG in? And how are most with newbies and restarters?

if anyone whipped out a winter orb in the middle of an edh game i'd probably punch his face. or sneak a copy of disenchant or shatter into my deck.

 

i think the one time i had the most groans at the table was when i played confusion in the ranks on turn five, and then removed simian spirit guide from hand on turn six to play goblin game. up until then no one had taken note of me because all i had on the table was a norin the wary (with the occasional bolt and volcanic fallout to help me). also helped that the guy playing the arcanis deck liked the idea of goblin game and thus didn't counterspell.

 

anyway, the goblin game took >10 minutes because 2 idiots decided to hide, like, coins and shit. of course i died the next turn, but at least i died happy knowing that i resolved one of the most bizzare spells in the history of mtg.

Appear at any card shops on a weekend and you'll find playgroups lol. But I only know of one other all-gay playgroup like us though.

 

Believe it or not, our group was established from this very thread (which was like in 2012) and grew along the way with newbies. Don't think there been any restarters who've joined us. I can't speak for "most" as we are just one playgroup, but i think we are rather friendly.

Could I join in, then? I've been trying to find one, even went to the Wizards forum, and most seem to be unwelcoming to new players and such.

It was an interesting Saturday with typhoonjoe joining us for the first time and Azorius popping by after a really long break, didn't really expect the thread to still be active but we still are playing Magic the Gathering almost on a weekly basis :)

 

Like Impere, XiaoMessy and SomeGuyInSg mentioned; we play EDH/Commander and Tiny Leader formats and are open to having new people around if you wanna engage in some epic clash of stacks and responses!

 

Hope you planeswalkers out there continue to harness mana and for those prospective planeswalkers, may your spark ignite soon :) cheers!

You can join us when we meet for games on Saturday :) we don't have 'vacancies' to fill and anyone is welcome to join us! with that in mind, we do play EDH/Commander and Tiny Leader formats so do read up on it or ask any of us so that you won't be incredibly lost in deckbuilding >< I'd drop you a PM shortly cheers!

Hello. Anybody here?

 

 

Hello guys,

We play at Dhoby Ghaut usually on Saturdays but we play the Commander/EDH format. Not sure what formats you guys are playing but if you could identify that, it would be easier for people to identify the right group for you :)

I dont have an EDH deck. I used to be a standard player, but its all been rotated into modern. lol

 

If you want to, you can borrow a deck from us and play but usually it'll be quite a steep learning curve to know what's the synergy/theme in the 100-card singleton format. Building a deck isn't the toughest thing, just gotta get over the card sourcing and getting the ~80 single pieces of cards to make the deck which is the most annoying part of deck building. And also playgroup mechanics which can be quite challenging cause some decks are just a pain to deal with and play against.

 

As for Modern you can try the modern tourneys at a store near you and make some friends :) or wait for a Modern/Casual playgroup to respond (if any)
