Though not new to the
comic world Magic the Gathering to me was a game I never had time for.
Truthfully I hadn't given it enough of a chance. Thanks to Geek and Sundry
(seriously go check out their website : (http://geekandsundry.com/),
and @feliciaday 's stream of the PC version on G&S' twitch channel. Through that I found
@Day[9] , Sean Plott the host of Spellslingers. Here is an awesome episode of Spellslingers here)
I finally asked my boyfriend to teach me. ( He had been asking if I wanted to play for over two years). After a few weeks of
borrowing decks, I picked up a mystery box and a blue deck. They aren't
tournament regulation but to learn they work out pretty well. I like the elements of what a blue deck is capable
of, learning quickly Blue is not a deck to start
out with! Oi!
I was very lucky that
I have a network of nerd (I say that with the highest of compliments). Friends
who know the game of Magic far better than me. They have been patient,
knowledgeable and very giving. Thanks
Adam for my first 20 sided die.
Walking into a comic
shop to buy more magic cards can be an overwhelming experience -especially as a
new player- but from the little time I had played and the white Kithkikin deck
my boyfriend was awesome to share with me to help me learn the rules.
This is where I
developed a love of Flyers.
Check back soon, I
will post about favorite cards, progress in game play and new accomplishments.
Cheers,
W.C. Alex Lightwood
