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

[thedeathscythe]

I tend to play better with black. Most of my favorite cards are black, and I tend to see the positive side of a card even if it seems to have a crippling negative side. I run a really good Hellcarver Demon/Eldrazi deck (which I call 'Helldrazi") that shows this kind of thing very well. All of the black cards have downsides but if you utilize it properly, it doesn't even effect you. I also really like blue and red is pretty good too. I tend to play really bad with white or green, but I have been meaning to change that a bit, so that I can use some cards I've kind of been neglecting.

I play a Tri-colour blue, red and white deck with a few artifacts thrown in and have never lost a match while usibg it so far.......so uh yeah

 

[zauxz]

Black and White all the way.

Ah yes, I too used to use this this stupidly overpowered combination.

 

[tehroc]

Domain (all 5 colors), cause if all else fails there is Coalition Victory (have all 5 lands and a creature of every color you win).

 

[raankh]

Depends on the format; I mostly play Legacy. Lately I've been having some success with a Forgemaster Combo deck (artifact deck). Now that Phyrexian Obliterator exists I'm pretty interested in building a monoblack aggro deck. I miss playing with Dark Ritual!

Usually I play at least three coloured, though. Almost always blue. Often green.

 

[Ganthrinor]

I prefer Black decks mostly, lots of interesting cards for it. Yawgmoth's Will, Living Death, Avatar of Woe, Necromancy, Drain Life, Kokusho, etc etc.

For tournament play and effectiveness, I play White. Just because it is without a question the most powerful single color in the game. Wrath of God, Swords to Plowshares, Armageddon, Path of Exile, White Knight, Jihad, etc. etc.

Oh, and I am a Type I player, with lots of the older powerful/useful cards so yeah... Definitely White for pure effectiveness.

Best deck I ever had was a black discard deck, at the time of the "Fallen Empires" expansion. Hymn to Tourach, Mindstab Thrull, Hypnotic Spectre, and The Rack were the main core, with Dark Ritual and a Sol Ring for fast mana and a couple of surprises thrown into the mix. It was always fun to get two Dark Rituals and throw out a Sengir Vampire before your opponent could even play.

I tend to play alot more control so

blue
black
white
green
red

curently I run a monoblack control deck in standard taking advantage of cheap strong creatures and lots of removal

 

[Red_Serpent]

I have several Peasant decks, 3 Legacy decks and some casual fundecks spread across all colours.

When I find the time, I'll create a Commander(EDH) deck...

 

[Toriver]

Most of my decks are split decks. I have a deck of black and each of the other four colors, a blue/white bird-soldier deck and monochrome black and blue decks. So I guess I favor black and blue, though the deck I have with those together is arguably my worst deck. My best decks are the blue/white bird-soldier deck (the only one I ever won a multiplayer game with against my friends who have far more and better cards at their disposal) and my black/white deck that was basically created by taking two Code of the Orzhov pre-built decks and splicing them together with a few more random surprises thrown in. Though my black/green spirit deck can hold its own too. The black/white one in particular is a beast in straight-up duels, almost taking out a nasty and fast angel deck my friend created, by successfully slowing it way down.

I like blue/black, it makes everything you do feel like a dick move.

Yeah I got one of those too. My favorite move is kidnapping an opponents most powerful creature then sacrificing it a Xathrid demon. It's actually a really effective tactic and it's awesome to see green deck users face go when I deal 8 damage to him with his Big green monster of death and destroy his card in the same turn.

Hey I used to have something similar to that as well. Just the beautiful combo of braids, vedalken shackles and sometimes a grave pact as well. I probably had one of the most broken blue/black control decks out there. Sadly all of my friends eventually refused to play it so I had to take it apart.

Yeah that happened to me too. Not so much because my deck was particuly good or hard to beat it was just not fun to vs.
Also that's a good combo.

 

[lionsprey]

Used to play a Black/Green deck namned golgari or something like that, i really liked it but i never won a single game with it

A thread about what?

About Duel Masters.

What is duel masters? I could Wikipedia it but that's kinda not the point is it?

 

[Jark212]

I prefer a Black Infect deck. Too bad I don't have anyone to play with where I live...

 

[Tallim]

I like blue/black, it makes everything you do feel like a dick move.

So very much this lol.

I'm a very old (by today's standards) player. I think I stopped playing around the time of Weatherlight and I played for years and years before that.

I suspect half the decks I used to play and play against wouldn't be Tournament legal now.


Though my favourite deck was Blue/Red

 

[Nemesha]

I chose black....Just love the things you can do with it

started out with white/black but it was too slow. Then went for a blue/black combo zombie deck with lots of lords to beef all zombies before settling with my black zombie rot deck =D
