Poll: Magic the gathering. What color do you prefer?

[Circusfreak]

i like black and red together. sometimes green is nice aswell. Go phyrexia!

 

[TheTaco007]

I have a badass mono green I call "Green does everything (except direct damage)."

Basically, it has aggro, combo, mana ramp, and lifegain all rolled into one 60 card deck. Got some Baloth's for aggro, everything's beefed up by a Leyline of Vitality, so I gain life every time I play a creature, too. Several Khalni Heart Expiditions combo'd with Grazing Gladeheart for lifegain off of the mana ramp. Then we of course have the Protean Hydra who becomes basically un-killable when combo'd with the Leyline, and then you put Canopy Cover on him, and just win the game.

But yeah, I used to like blue a lot, but I'm not a big fan of counter-magic. I just feel like too much of a dick, and I can't get used to leaving 3 untapped lands every turn...

Mono Black is my favorite just because Vamp decks make my life. Deathtouch/Lifelink/Necromancy? Yes please.
Followed by that would be a blue/black. Controlling the battlefield as you wittle down your opponent.
But 5 colored EDH with my "Fuck you I'm a Dragon" deck with Scion of the Ur-Dragon as my general is extremely fun to play.

I always tried to use a split deck of Red/White. Though I always ended up having way too many cards and I never had enough low level monsters at the start to survive very long.

Really? with a red deck that's unusual. Cheep cards is sort of it's main advantage isn't it.

Yea I forgot to mention I was pretty bad at Magic. My decks consisted of WAY too many mana cards and loads of really powerful creatures, so I'd spend the first 5 turns putting down loads of mana and get one creature out just before losing.

if magic the gathering online is still up i suggest you play the free version of it(just lets you use starter decks) get good with them then put together a deck it will help you get the basics down

OT i have a few decks i play depending on what mood im in(or if a buddy needs a deck)

black/White: cleric deck

green+4 blue cards: unlimited mana deck put this together as a joke only used it once was rather funny when my buddy was facing down about 3,000,000 centaurs on turn 4

green/red: beast deck

white: soldier deck

red: goblin deck

black: card burn deck

yea i have too many card

 

[Mana Fiend]

I'd say Green. I think it's that I love Elf decks and Garruk as a Planeswalker. My favourite deck type is Naya though (R/G/W), had an Ant Queen/Mycoloth deck going on once with some Goblin fodder to feed to my big bads. So annoyed that Alara has cycled out... Loved that block.

 

[Neo10101]

I usually rock Esper colors, which for those who don't know is white, blue, and black. The white and blue I use for control, also the white has some life gain and decent creatures, power and ability wise, also the blue I use for draw power and countering, and finally there is black which is just damage and life loss. My #1 deck right now is an esper ally deck.

 

[Davroth]

Blue. I dig the control it gives you.

 

[Zakarath]

I have a few decking in various colors. #1 is Red(with a little black and green). Dragons FTW! (Dragons and Zirilan. Zirilan is awesome.)

Additionally, I've got a green elf deck that combos heritage druid with token generation, a blue deck that combines Forced Fruition with Psychic Possession, among others.

 

[Life_Is_A_Mess]

Mostly Black, defensive. I like Red/Blue aswell, it creates some awesome mixtures.
I don't play alot, nor do I own super kill-o-trons... T'is a simple hobby.

 

[Heartbreak One]

Every deck I can play well with has White or Red (preferably both)

 

[-Dragmire-]

Pretty much anything but blue...

My artifact deck rocked though, no option for colourless though.

 

[Kavachi]

Blue/Green. Sounds weird, but its awesome.

also, I once tried a rainbow deck but that failed horribly

 

[LCP]

Wait It's real! I always thought it was something family guy made up to make fun of jihad!

ohh the ignorance of me

 

[Quellist]

I haven't played for a few years but i won a few regional championships with a really nasty black/red/green deck i designed. It was all about destruction and pain and used a lot of early cards like Sinkhole and black lotus. The focus was to destroy land and punish my opponent for everything they did with cards like Dingus Egg and Worms of the Earth.

It would have collapsed in a heartbeat if someone used Blood Moon on me but no-one ever did. I'd have to say the pain and frustration that deck caused people make that combination my favorite.

 

[viranimus]

Well... back when I did play, I played with a tri colored deck. Typically, swamps/mountains/Forests.

Typically from what I saw, Mountains allowed me to use quick momentum goblin types, Swamps acted more as my magic reserves and Forests typically held my bruiser type mobs.

But the game has changed so much and gravitated away from the casual and toward the hardcore (and back again supposedly) that I doubt my playstyle would be viable any more

 

[MattyintheHatty]

I am shocked that Blue is not winning this thread. I am typically a Red Player cause playing Blue is lame.

 

[Rednog]

Red because it has goblins and I pretty much love them to death, especially since a lot of them just always have really odd abilities.

 

[CrazyCapnMorgan]

One word: Trample.
Green for me: Big scary beasts that get bigger and scarier is awesome.
"Its diet consists of fruits, plants, small woodland animals, large woodland animals, woodlands, fruit groves, fruit farmers, and small cities."

Go go Enormous Baloth! I love that caption.

I somewhat recently got back into the game, though hardly anyone around me plays it anymore.

My main deck is a Naya deck - red, white and green. However, it is very versatile: I have elves for enhanced mana production, the greatest of which being Scuttlemutt with Bloom Tender, I can produce "weenie hordes" with Rhys and Creakwood Liege, or I can quick summon powerhouses from my deck with Mayael the Anima's ability (which I can grab with Elvish Harbingers) that include Empyrial Archangel, Doomgape, Duskdale Wurm, the afore mentioned Enormous Baloth and many, many more. Should those methods fail, I can fall back on Helix Pinnacle and just pour mana into that with multiple Bloom Tenders with Mistveil Plains being able to put cards back into my deck from the graveyard.

Unfortunately, it isn't all that complete. I'd like to get that ultimate artifact creature into my deck, the Phyrexian...something or another. A 15/15 indestructible from what I remember.

 

[Airsoftslayer93]

Green ftw

 

[Polaris19]

I prefer blue but I'll play any color so long as it's not red. Not a fan of red.
