My Yu-Gi-Oh deck wasn't all that great, until on the last day of school last year. This kid had a really good deck and he was open to some fair trades... I offloaded alot of cards that look good but suck in practice, and gained a very formidable deck that combines only the best in hysteric fairy and soul of purity and light technology

My most feared card(s) are the Bubonic Vermin (partially because I give then a stirring introduction and occaissionally add theme music when one is attacked!

'>... I always have something on the board, and I can pull tribute monsters out of surprising places

'> Soooo many effect monsters... Only problem is, nobody will play me anymore... I always win!

I am a feared and respected Yu-gi-oh duelist. my deck consists of light monsters or to the importance spellcaster monsters. i also have cards such as to modify my monsters and swing the rules! Inaba White Rabbit is my most annoying card and luminous spark is my most feared card. none of my monsters meant for attacking are under 1700 attack points and none meant for defending are under 2000 defense. all my monsters below 2000 attack points except for Marie the Fallen One are level 4 or below. My deck is also based on anti control, so i can blast off your defenses and knock at you with power! weapons plentiful. do not duel with me unless you think you've got some nice cards.

The DB card topic made me curious.

I had to pick 2 out of the four, I am a respected magic player and a feared poke`mon player. I was almost bumped right out of both when all my most powerful decks were stolen but i've managed to rebuild a bit.

'> Magic here. I was playing befor most people even knew it existed.... It came it went... Just like all others. The difference is that Magic has been the definitive CCG of them all and is still played. Can't say much about alot of the others in a couple years.

I used to play Magic (still have a large bin full of cards, in fact) but I put myself down for Yu-Gi-Oh... I just find it a faster and generally more enjoyable game.

Yu-Gi-Oh for me!!

I used to Pokemon. I still have my card collection somewhere.

« **Reply #10 on:** March 10, 2004, 03:06:48 pm »

Pokemon and M:TG.

Plus the Star Wars cards, I used to play and then I stopped, I only played for a few months though.

« **Reply #11 on:** March 10, 2004, 03:11:22 pm »

Magic!! The art on those cards are absolutely wonderful. n.n

And when I was in school, I started the Magic: TG club. We weren't an official club... we just wanted something to do on Wednedays after school. Since we weren't being watched by a teacher, and apparently now they have stricter rules, they may not be meeting any more. But oh well... it still makes me feel all cool 'cause I started a trend or something for a few school years.

I don't really play the games but I have a set of equine cards from "Dragon Storm" that were given to me since I just fell in love with the artwork!

I like the cards for the artistic stuff, WS likes to play the games. He even used to GM some before I moved here and for awhile after I moved here.

Mm. Its been six years since someone first tried to teach me how to play Magic, and I still don't understand how it works to save my life.

Yu-Gi-Oh took six minutes (I still suck at it, but at least I know what I'm doing).

I used to play the Star Trek and Star Wars collectible card games, (but I was really lousy at them, and they were so bloody expensive...) I ended up selling them to the friend who got me into the game in the first place, (no doubt his original goal, the sneaky devil!

'>.

The only thing I play now that comes close is Star Chamber, an online collectible card game you play across the 'net with other people. Buying cards isn't *necessary* but you'll need to if you want to actually compete and raise your rankings and such. It's a lot like the PC game 'Master of Orion', but...well, with cards, and a few new features. :K)

What color was the deck they tried to teach you with, if you don't mind my asking?

My memory isn't that good, but I remember his favorite card was called Sarah Angel.

I love MTG, and I really want to work for WOTC.
I have this evil beast deck that churns out huge creatures, really fast. A 3rd round 6/6 is impressive.
I also have a annoying ping/bounce/sizzle deck. Everyone hates it

I was the only girl ever to make it to the last round at a local tourny.

White then and themed at that, not a good deck to start with at all. If you ever happen to be out my way and really want to learn the basics lemme know.

You probly would of loved my conspiracy deck ( green/black) churned out a striat cast avatar of woe on turn 4 and never ran a single dark ritual, Then there was the beauty of my gryphon deck gotta love white controll

I've never been much of a fan of CCGs. They're usually way too expensive to seriously enjoy. Buying RPG books was usually bad enough for me. ':p'

I used to collect and play MTG, Star Wars (from Decipher), and also Star Trek (First Edition from Decipher). Unfortuneately, I had to sell my entire MTG collection years ago because I couldn't afford buying 3 different games at the same time. I still have my entire Star Trek collection but don't play it anymore cause too many people used to cheat and play so many Rogue Borg cards and such. Still have my Star Wars collection but don't play that either and am currently looking to sell entire sets as is, or else sell the cards as singles. Haven't made any firm decisions yet. I didn't want to sell my MTG cards but at the time I was more into sci-fi than anything else. I still think MTG is the best card game ever created.

I'd tend to agree. My biggest complaint about the game is the cost involved. I really haven't tried many other CCGs because I figure I spend too much on magic cards as it is. (Anyone here use apprentice?)

I play Magic, I love magic, I collect Magic. As I call people who are really into Magic, I am a mage ^^

I started with pokemon, and it was fun. I had a seck, befor pokemon came out in my part of the country. But, one day, I was looking at a card mag, and saw the most beautiful card I've ever seen. Mirri cat warrior. This was just as I came into my furryness. I feel in love with the card, and memorised every thing about it. I started to collect cool looking cards, then became a Dragon mage, and after 2 years, I finnaly got my prize. A mint Mirri. I still play and after 4 or 5 years, I have just about ever Dragon card, and a huge hord of other cards. I no longer bye newer sets, because I don't like the new design. I will still get Dragons, and these Cat warrior cards I heard of. Other then that, I only get old cards.

I love the game, and I am powerful with my Dragon deck. One of it's kind around here. ^^ No one else has near the amount of Dragons I do. I forget, but I think it's to 50 something. not alot of Dragon cards were relieced, but now I think they may be doing more and more of them. My quest, is on going.

Peace

I forgot to mention this, but for anyfur that has a large CCG collection and needs help organizing it, building decks, knowing quantities of cards they have, etc., then please check out www.wolflair.com They have a product there called Card Vault that is a absolute must for anybody that is a serious CCG collector or player. I'd say more about it here, but I'll let everyone check it out for themselves. Trust me, you won't want to be without it.
