LoadingReadyRun: It's Magic

[somacruz500]

You sure there isn't a nerd store that supports MTG in your area, though? One was in my area, but it closed. A year or two later, a new one opened up pretty much overnight, without me noticing until like 3 months later.

Well, there are plenty of places that sell the cards, but I don't know of any specific stores to cater to players. Plus, I don't have my driver's license, so I'm kind of limited.

You could try MtG: Online. It's actually pretty fun. I've made a WGR beatdown deck from the starting pack, and there's a bunch of other cards you get once you activate your account. It costs 10$ I think, and you can pretty much buy everything you can buy IRL there. Check it out if you can't find anyone to play with IRL

Sounds OK, but it's a totally separate thing to buy, unless there was a way to log in the physical cards I own so I could play with them.

There isn't a way to do that unfortunetly. MTGO is okay, but Duels of the Plainswalkers is WAYYYYYYYY better.

If there's a store that specializes in DnD, Munchkin, MTG, etc, then you should definitely look in to that.

Nah... I'm talking like Walmart, GameStop, etc. that sell pre-builts and boosters, but that's kind of it. There is a Games Workshop, but it's kind of a bit far, and I don't know if they sell Magic there.

Your GameStop sells Magic!? Luck! I wish mine did, then maybe I'd get a discount with my Edge.

Try calling Games Workshop so you don't have to drive out there.

Ah... Magic. It wasn't about winning. It was about building themes! My rabid wombat deck wasn't meant to win, but to feed him as many enchantments before I died... Or role playing with my pure wall deck. Saying, "Scruvy scum, you'll break my walls with your pathetic killer bees, for I have... FLYING WALLS! I will outlast your kind for the next century or end of lunch!"

That sounds about right for my group of friends. My two main decks right now are "GOOOATS!" and "Ooze consumption". I've had and tested goats since shadowmoor, so it's as good as I'd like it to be, and ooze is still in the first build, looking to make a few changes soon.

Now that was epic, and you know if I had have watched this video before last weekend I would have have cared so much // But was at a gaming con and afterwards go taught how to play Magic // We played for about 8hours straight and I fully enjoyed it

Now I have to go find some Black Planeswalkers

Also, watching you all on Desert Bus live feed

Lol at Kathleen in the back of the card store.

 

[Crimsane]

Alex is officially pretty fucking awesome. He was before, but now it's official.

 

[Azmael Silverlance]

Guys i rly hate you....you make the idea of me going back to MtG seem so tempting -_-`
If i do go back ill buy a ticket to the US find you and maul you to death with CARDS! honestly!!! CAAARDS

 

[itsausernamewhatofit]

Probably my favorite episode of Loading ready run. Magic is the most addicting card game ever but my pals always crush me. Seriously great episode and can someone tell me what the life counter app was?

 

[vxicepickxv]

If it doesn't get posted anywhere else, when I get my angry kitties deck from the desert bus auction, I'll post the list here.

 

[zombiesinc]

What a fantastic episode! After watching you guys play, both in this video, and through Desert Bus, I really want to get into it.

Now, if only I had some friends around here that I could play with. D:

Games Workshop doesn't do MTG. Only their own products.

HaHa,
Kathleen has the same Gorillaz T as me. Only then the girl version o'course. Cool ! Keep them coming girl !

You missed a play in the last game vs. 'Kitties'. When she played the Journey to Nowhere, you could have sacrificed Bloodthorne to its own ability. Thus, when the enchantment came into play she would be forced to remove one of her own kitties from the game, allowing you to deal with the other via Doom Blade.

Sloppy play gets you kittified.

 

[Unoriginal069]

Awesome job guys.

Got me nostalgic for my MtG days of old.
(wonder if I still have that original black lotus in all those rubbermaids of cards in the basement?)

And 'good luck' toya Tim!
Did an awesome job and I wish ya the best!

Am I strange for loving Magic, but never actually playing it with anyone? (I'd like to, but no one in the area plays it.)

No, that happened to me after my friends who taught me went to different schools after 6th grade (it closed).

Just teach your cousin (or sibling). That's what I did.

Two problems. Closest cousins are 20 miles away and not interested. (They'd rather play RuneScape.) I'm an only child.

So there go those options.

It's not strange. I was like that for a while myself. The aspect of magic I enjoyed most was building decks anyway. Interestingly enough, I got my gf to play casually, so at least my crappier decks get some action now. lol

 

[RandallJohn]

Erm, sorry for the lateness on this post (and if this has been asked before,) but what app were they using?

 

[Overseer76]

I was expecting some perfunctory/oblique references to Magic: the Gathering, but they used real cards, real rules and real strategies! Thumbs up for realism. It was a fun vid, but it wasn't funNY until "You're not even playing a red deck!" Combining Magic with magic? Brilliant.

i cant believe i didnt notice the insane clown posse part where alex said magics up in this ***** and then he said about the magnets and graham says how do they work? haha its probably werent meant to be meant like that but i noticed lol
