Anyone here play Magic???

[Crazy Elf Boy]

I was just wondering if anyone on the TPM forums played Magic the Gathering trading card game?

If so can you plz replie to this so we can discuss deck ideas etc....

I play magic.

Right now I have what I hope to be a killer deck in formation that I lovingly call "Chump Block." The principle is very simple, really. I simply just try to get out as many tokens as humanly possible. Then, of course, I stick one with Lure, and possibly Blessed Breath it, too, giving it protection from any one color. Use my Junkyo Bell on one creature, giving it, say +23/+23, and Bye-bye opponent.

Deck list is as follows:

White Cards

3 Cage of hands
1 Pacifism
1 Cowed By Wisdom
2 Ethereal Haze
1 Holy Day
1 Hold The Line
1 Warrior's Honor
1 Charge Across the Araba
2 Indomitable Will
1 Hero's Resolve
2 Blessed Breath
1 Masako the Humorless
9 Plains

Artifacts/ Non-basic Lands

1 Elfhame Palace
1 Tranquil Thicket
1 Pentavus
1 Junkyo Bell
1 Orochi Hatchery (I want more!!!)
1 Fodder Cannon
1 Nuicance Engine (Useful fo blocking those with Fear ability)

Green Cards

1 Hondeen of Life's Web
1 Verdant Embrace
1 Scatter the Seeds
1 Druid's Call
2 Kodama's Reach
2 Journey of Discovery
1 Explosive Vegetation
1 Dawn's Reflection
2 Lure
2 Serpent Skin
4 Sakura-Tribe Elder
4 Orochi Leafcaller
3 Orochi Sustainer
1 Sachi, Daughter of Sesshiro
1 Orochi Eggwatcher/ Shidako, Broodmistress
1 Thallid Shell-Dweller
1 Savage Thallid
1 Living Hive (I want more!)
1 Fyndhorn Elder
15 Forests

As you can see, Most of my creatures and spells either generate mana or creature tokens, or for white, protect me until I can. 78 Cards deep. I would like 2-3 more Orochi Hatchery and Verdant Embrace. But this'll have to do for now. Let me Know what you think.

Gasp. People not talking about Yugioh in TCG? Better continue the trend

I'm playing Standard format Slivers Type 2 ftw.

Land (21)
6 Forest
5 Island
5 Plains
1 Arctic Flats
1 Boreal Shelf
3 Terramorphic Expanse

Creatures (35)
4 Dormant Sliver
4 Gemhide Sliver
3 Harmonic Sliver
4 Quilled Sliver
4 Reflex Sliver
4 Screeching Sliver
4 Sidewinder Sliver
4 Sinew Sliver
4 Telekinetic Sliver

Instant (4)
4 Dryad's Caress

Idea: Get out Dormant Sliver. Play a bunch of slivers. Draw a bunch of cards. Play a bunch more of slivers. Tap to mill ftw. Also, if Telekinetic Sliver hits play, it's stasis. Tap all their lands at the beginning of the opponent's upkeep when priority passes to you. Quilled Sliver means your opponent wont attack. Gemhide synergizes with Dormant Sliver (y)

It works pretty well, at least the engine does. I've only tested it once at a local Standard format tourney. It blew chunks. I can buil.d up a lot of slivers, but a single Wrath of God or Damnation and my whole deck bites the dust. Everyone I played suggested adding in Psionic Sliver, which I'm thinking about tossing in. It would allow me to utilize Dormant Sliver to the maximum potential. Get seven slivers out, tap ftw. Any ideas for making it faster? I was thinking maybe signets, but improvement only goes so far with those things

EDIT: Also, no one was playing Dralnu, Dragonstorm, Boros Deck Wins, Zoo, or any of those crazy popular deck types, so I dunno how well this deck would do.

My friend kind off plays a deck like that except his main combo is

2x Mindlash Sliver
1x Necrotic Sliver
1x Pulmonice Sliver
1x Basal Sliver
1x Dormant sliver

Its pretty much sac the mindlashes to the basal to get up the mana and keep putting them on your deck with Pulmonic then drawing them with Dormant. Repeat until you have enough mana then just destroy all there permanents. But if you get a second Dormant out its a bonus.

Also for the whole wrath of god/Damnation put in a pulmonic then you can just stack you deck with the detroyed slivers.

I play MTG as well. I've played it for 8 years now, which means I started playing when the Urza Block was being released. Currently, I have two little pet decks that I use. The first one is my all-time favorite arch-type: Mono-Green Aggro.

LANDS
20 Forest
1 Pendelhaven

CRITTERS
4 Llanowar Elves
4 Skaargan Pit-Skulk
4 Scryb Ranger
4 Silhana Ledgewalker
4 Groundbreaker
3 Timbermare

SPELLS
4 Might of Old Krosa
4 Giant Growth
3 Moldervine Cloak
3 Might of Oaks
3 Greater Good
2 Blanchwood Armor

SIDEBOARD
4 Leyline of Lifeforce
4 Krosan Grip
4 Serrated Arrows
3 Stonewood Invocation

Very simplistic deck. You just swing on through with large fatties until your opponent as been killed to death. The sideboard is all about anti-control. Leyline stopes counterspells, Grip kills trouble enchantments, Stonewood stops spot removal, and Serrated Arrows does a wonderful job at killing x/1 troublemakers. Fortune Thief is one that gets an Arrow straight up the keister.

I'll go ahead and post my second deck later. I was going to post it now, but I can't find the decklist ^_^;;

Scrub Ranger thats the card i was thinking of ty Seeker_Of_Truth, my friend has made a similar deck except his has a splash of red for Brute force. Same idea though 1/1 weenies with unblockable,flying and trample.

Soon i am going into a Tribal can any one suggest a far out creature type?
