Right but like I said if you want to say work towards being a pro or just want to play in most tournaments and compete, you need cards to build decks and to be good at draft. Sure if you want the cheapest route to tournaments then draft is a good way to get there, but that is a format that probably favors the veterans even more than constructed does.


You can just have fun without trying to be a professional, a you know that, right?

Yep, I am just talking about the tournament scene so people understand what its like. Some people are fine with just playing at the kitchen table with some friends, others want to do well in tournaments.


tbh, I've only ever done one tourney -- a sealed draft release for Planar Chaos -- where I top 8'd but I didn't find any of it fun, partly because of the downtime between fights and the sheer length of the tourney which, afaik, wasn't even *that* big since I played 5 matches (won 4 straight, lost the 5th) prior to my quarter-finals match (where I was badly mana-screwed in both games).

I did get a Teneb the Harvester which I added to my old tri-color zombie deck. Granted, since this happened years after I was an active player, I think I only used that deck again once or twice at most and against another ex-player.

If I ever do start playing casual again, I want to make a gimmick dragon deck using this guy:

ANFHi5q

I figure I could Entomb/Bury Alive/whatever then Exhume Re-Animate him, use him to pop Teneb into the grave then copy Teneb's ability to revive the actual Teneb.

MLNnMRR

From there, I could keep resurrecting dragons placed by Scion into the grave. Granted, I guess I'd win long before that'd be useful >_>

Just sorted up all my old MTG cards. It was a shame I had to put the old elf deck down.

It's okay, I have no idea who I am either.

Yup, go to EDH where nobody cares about that.
It's pretty damn awesome tbh.
