I played it about ten years ago, but im not sure if its not played anymore or what. I checked at my local card shop and they dont do tournies anymore so Im pretty sure its almost dead. Am I wrong?
I currently reside under the London Bridge.
Does anyone know what I did with my hat?
I believe the pro League is still going to my knowledge. So it's still got some kick to it.
I'm not sure you can ever say I played magic the gathering. As a kid I would get a 5 dollar allowence weekly. I would spend 4 dollars on a rented game.... then spend the last dollar either on candy or a pack of Magic the Gathering cards.
For the timeframe this was during the "The Dark" and "Lost Kingdom" days. I didn't know how to play the game... I just liked the card illustrations. Then one day I decided to buy the starter pack and learn the rules.
Never had anyone to play against but myself... but then i bought the videogame and had a lot of fun. (The PC one you don't pay for.)
I really can't buy trading card games now... too much of a ripoff.
Really I can only judge card games via there videogame versions... as such i really like other ones more.
I was pretty into it during junior high/high school. Travelled around to a fair amount of competitions, etc. Had one of the best DCI ratings in town. Those were pretty fun days.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
I used to, I didn't play bad but since all my cards sucked because I didn't spend much money in them I lost most of the time. Still, every now and then I pick my bro's deck for a match or two with a friend
It's still the best TGC game ever, though
I played for years, from revised all the way up until about when tempest came out.
I had/have a pretty sick ultra fast black weenie deck (black knights and order of the ebon hand FTW!) that's only been beat a few times.
(It's even able to take out the pre construct worls champion decks. The ones I've seen, at least)
I've gotten a look at some of the new cards from the updatd sets,a nd they are stupid ridiculous strong. Shit like indestructible artifacts, and monsters that make you lose the game in one hit. It got a little bit over the top for me. :/
We'll miss you George.

MTG is supposed to come out on XBLA sometime this year. I only hope it's half as good as the old Microprose PC version.
I probably quit playing the card game eight or nine years ago, and I wont pay money for virtual cards.
Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.

The microprose version ROCKS. I have that and the expansion... the RPG mode is surprisingly fun.
Though Red and Green seem really overpowered.
I played it way back in primary school. Got out and sold my cards for $200 without looking back. I know some people who still play.
