Magic : The Gathering

so recently i just started playing magic.

for the lulz and all, you understand.

so, naturally, i wanted to know whats with the long history.

so i took a look at the alpha - test cards.




wat.

so does this mean you take an extra turn or does the opponent lose the game on the next.

oh, and also, for the older cards (like 2000 and below) it is possible to see horrible images drawn with colour pencils as the card image.

such is the most popular card game in the world.

meh.



anywayz, apparently, the game is played with life points. same with YGO, i had difficuklty tracking my 20 lifepoints at some points and use this to my advantage =P [hehehe]


anyway, its just a lulzier version of duelmasters, just more complicated and more mindfuck.

theres a card that says,

discard half of opponent's deck.
DO EET.


and it can be played in 4 or 5 turns.

and u can have 4 of that card.


and there are some cards with similiar effects but different names, so u can put those in too.


moral of story ?

old, babyboomer, retro games are weird.
