Is this one of those deep emotional wounds, or does it actually physically hurt to breathe? Shouldn't you go to a hospital?

Oh, okie. Good to know that throat periods don't exist, unless of course you have strip throat, or at I think that's what it's called. I don't know.

I tryed but then just linked them to some youtube videos. Just can't believe that someone made an untap account, made a deck, joined a game just to ask how to play magic. why not google it?

sirbar the same reason you and I played a Commander game. Because playing a game makes it easier to learn.

Maybe they know the basics of the game, they just wanted you to help them develop a better understanding of the game. That could've been the case sirbar. ;)
I'm out again, right after I returned too.

No he had no idea how to play magic. At all. He asked what each card did and how to play them. I get wanting to learn better once you know the basics but idk he could have easily found somewhere better to learn.

Let's talk about how we all got into Magic. Personally, 2 years ago I was just bored and I kept reading into MTG and MTGO. Finally I broke down and invested into MTGO. I never got into paper Magic because of my schedule with University, so I spent my time online. I'm secretly an awful person because I have always loved Blue and denying my opponents their plays. I used to be super into Izzet, drifted to Dimir and now thoroughly enjoy Jeskai.
Find me a more experienced Control player on this site. I mean, sure Epoch, because he apparently is god (or something), but I don't know anyone on this site who has dedicated more time to solely to Control. So, yes I will take that as my claim to fame and significance on this site.
May 16, 2015 11:15 p.m.
I was camping with some friends and they were bored and brought there decks. I learned on a goblin deck. I started with izzet and never stopped playing it. Later moved on to golgari because i love killing everything my opponet does. Never played white because its the worst color in magic. Let the games begin.

@CanadianShinobi aside from a few outliers, like one or two that is, my decks always have some form of control, if not entirely based around control. I got into magic about three years ago when my brother came home for Christmas and brought his cards. I built a really crappy B/U control with a larger than 4 amount of Wring Fleshs. I was just always into control more than anything, attacking isn't usually my style unless it is the only way for me to win. Needless to say, it was another year before I bought my own cards and seriously got into magic. I made sure to learn quick, and I believe I've made some major progress with control. My personal favorite kind of control is W/U that's douche levels are over 9000.

Friend of mine played magic. The very first deck I played was the tezzeret duel deck, and I loved it. I did some searching and saw Blightsteel Colossus, and decided to make a deck around it. My friends all hated me haha

I'm not even going to check what I missed here.
Same xzzane. Love me some Blightsteel.

I first heard about magic from a good friend like, probably twelve years ago. Seemed kinda cool but was in to pokemon cards at the time. Few years later bought a pack of like, 8th or 9th edition. Remember seeing the grizzly bear card, and the flavor text was something about never being able to out run the bears, and that if you climbed a tree, it would knock it over and eat you. Thought that was so cool... and then I didn't buy another card until Gatecrash.

I think it was freshman year in August. My friend invited me over to hang out, and my other friend was there too. They were playing some Magic, and I was like, "Neato." So I tried playing, and my first deck I ever played was a R/G land destruction deck my friend had built for us to learn on. So I decided to invest some money into it, and I bought the Innistrad green intro deck and some other packs. I eventually built a BUG self-mill deck centered around Spider Spawning and Mirror-Mad Phantasm. It was beautiful. And then my friend introduced me to EDH, and I built Thraximundar good/jank stuff. Then I got a bit more competitive and made it a Cruel combo-control deck. But now I'm playing some jank combo group hug deck and Dragon beats. My other friend got us into modern, so now we're hooked on that too. Then another friend just kind of got sucked into it a year later. And here we are, the four of us, playing EDH at least once a week at someone's house or going to FNM. I can say that I'm happy that he got me into it.

Not sure if I said this already, but my super budget Talrand deck, and my Yisan deck played really well. I like them a whole lot.
Picked up a couple foil 7th edition Wind Drakes to use as tokens.
May 16, 2015 11:45 p.m.
I dunno why but lately i've really, really wanted to play a competitive g/r token list.

kyuuri117: I know I've seen a modern R/G token deck on here, and I saw it get deckcycled either today or yesterday.
May 16, 2015 11:51 p.m.
Yea I saw someone playing a r/g token list at FNM two weeks ago. Xenagos, Rabble, Outburst, Hornet Queen and some red enchantment that dealt 1 damage to a player whenever a creature entered the battlefield. Seemed kinda boring honestly.
And I honestly don't really care what format, just wanna do something with tokens. Prob standard though, cuz I doubt G/W tokens could do anything at all in modern.
