Pablo Nergigante posted:I got back into MTG during Covid and got really competitive and into the meta and poo poo and a couple months ago I went 0-3 and dropped a big tournament and stopped playing and I realized the other day that I don’t actually care about it anymore lol. i had a similar break with competitive but it was when i realized i wasn't having fun when i was learning kaldheim draft. seeing people talk about standard or being serious about draft does nothing for me, but i am interested in finding a chill commander group and maybe messing around with prereleases. in-person social poo poo rather than grinding to mythic on arena.

trading card games seem real neat except for the whole part about trading the cards or even worse than having to trade/buy/sell for them, gambling on opening random card packs it's always neat to read about funny combos or cool decks but im not touching that stuff directly, too rich for my blood

There’s nothing that compares to the sense of joy and wonder of opening a brand new booster pack as a kid and finding something rare. I loved card games growing up but they really don’t hit the same way after elementary/middle school, when everyone just buys the cards they want and use the same types of decks. Also, yeah, it’s way too expensive. I don’t play Magic anymore but I really felt this when I played the online Yu-Gi-Oh client. It was usually fun enough until I get to a certain rank online and then it was just the same couple decks I’ve never heard of using mechanics I barely understand to kill me excruciatingly slowly on the first turn.

Captain Invictus posted:the MTG Arena client is pretty good for that, in that while getting a collection quickly is going to cost money, wildcards that can be used to craft any card equally are semi-frequent and packs have dupe protection past the fourth copy of rares and mythics. If you get even a few wins a day it's entirely possible to get a complete set of the current release for little investment besides time. And poo poo like Sheoldred, The Apocalypse costing 90 loving dollars in paper is meaningless when a single mythic wildcard gets you a copy in arena. there's also cockatrice if you want to play online for free. it doesn't have a rules engine though, and the player base can be a trash fire

every wed night at a local dive bar they do a commander tourney. you get one free drink if you show up and play magic whether you play in the competitive games or just dicking around with friends at a side game. winner gets a $25 bar tab.

Every single "reaction" YouTuber is the kind of person I see sit in front of me at the movie theater and instinctively start the mental preparation for when I need to tell them to put their phone away and shut the gently caress up.

other than arena, the best way to play magic if you're gonna spend money is probably just to learn how to draft

Speaking of draft I started a fictional league in Out of the Park 25 to learn how to play and I am already more furious with non-existent ballplayers than I ever thought possible.

I've only played Commander but the local shop has sealed pre release nights and I tried that a couple of times and it's probably the least fun I've ever had playing Magic
