One of the phrases that makes me smile, a compliment to the discussed card of the moment, is one casually saying "best card in the game"... which gives one pause for additional thought and reflection of the card in question.

Dear Richard Garfield I am a college senior and I have been playing Magic The Gathering since my freshmen year of high school. The summer after I finished Middle School, my family moved from Texas to Boston, so when I started high school, I didn’t know anyone around me. One day, I saw a group of kids around my age playing a strange card game they called Magic. I went over, sat with them and watched the game. I didn’t know the rules at the time, but I just wanted to know. I had a quarter on me at the time, so I bought a card off one of the kids to get my deck started. I believe that Magic The Gathering not only helped me get acquainted with those kids, but with the rest of that high school community. I kept playing Magic The Gathering since then, but during my second year of College I had a second experience similar to my freshman year, but this time, I was helping someone else get aquatinted with the community around them through Magic The Gathering. I was hanging out in the common room of my friends dorm when this new student walked over to us. She explained she was a foreign exchange student from Kuwait and she wanted help finding her room. I decided to help her and we paused our game to assist. At the beginning of the semester, I saw her around from time to time, but she wasn’t p socializing with anyone. Eventually, she found her way to a hang out session between me and some fellow Magic The Gathering players where she sits down next to me and starts watching the game. She begins asking about the rules and my friends and I teach her how to play. I had a deck back then I was not using anymore, but was good enough for starting players, so I just gave it to her freely. She started hanging out with us more and more and the more she hung out with us, the more I noticed her talking to other students and making friends. Eventually I had the courage to ask her out, and we have been together for eighteen months. Mr. Garfield you may never read this since it’s just a comment on a KZbin video you were in. If somehow you read this, all I want to say is, Magic The Gathering not only changed my life for the better but for the lives of thousands of people, like my girlfriend as well. She has admitted she was at first scared of studying in America, but has also said she wouldn’t give it up for anything because it’s where she learned how to play Magic The Gathering and met me. I now know that many players have a story like mine and they would never be told if it weren’t for a simple game you created.
@Blackadder758 ай бұрын
What a lovely story.. Richard does know about you. (well not you, but people like you) He often wrote columns for WoTC and in those writings he explained that he saw playing games as some kind of universal language between humans of every race sex and cultural background. I am sure he had heard stories like yours often and is extremely pleased that his creations helped people connect in this way. I was lucky enough to play in a world championship event of magic. I think we had 50 or 60 nationalities at that tournament , all playing the same game. I played against people from Portugal, Japan, Argentina, Sweden and others. I won games, I lost games it was all good. I loved the experience. First you played only with players from your own city, then your own nation, then your continent and eventually the whole world. It really was an international movement and I have often seen people from far away being helped by magic players, hotel rooms shared, friendships being made. it was a golden age of magic (for me this was about 2000-2010)

Every other recent time it seems as though he's somewhat disappointed or even annoyed at how much the game has changed over the years. This being the very FIRST version of Magic it seems to bring him back to his roots of why he loves making games, because it was much simpler and more based around fun than it is today. It's nice to see that passion again

This is like Egyptologists finding and uncovering an unspoiled Pharaoh grave. I remember almost 30 years ago when the game was new, reading the Pocket Player's Guide, checking the card list, finding the cards of my revised starter deck (Fast Bond and Lord of The Pit as rares, I remember it to this day) and reading about these people who playtested pre-pre alpha.. the names of these playtested were so alien to me (who in the world is named Skaff?) and their legendary decks... The alpha testers stories are also familiar in another way. about 10 years later me and my friends were beta world of warcraft testers, and it took over our lives in the same way, we would spend almost every minute of the day thinking about WoW when we were not working or sleeping.

KingBobXIV timestream navigator and part the waterveil are mythics. A game of telephone guarantees you at least one with purchase.

Edit: buy a box rarity is artificial and $300 could net you the knowledge that you are neither a fog or eggs player or it could net you 30 some drafts or ~150 standard queues both of which will make you a better player. We're in one of the widest formats ever, make a point of searching for and exiling it in your meta. If someone is telling you there is roof yet to be reached for a 7mana instant post rotation or even mid season it might be because they somehow got a number of them already.

I love everything about this video. I discovered this game in the summer of 1994 after just having graduated high school. My friend bought cards back from Seattle Washington where he had been living. We lived in a suburb of Tampa Florida. Those first few years were a magical time for me. Revised was the currently available base set and the Dark had just come out. You couldn't get packs, but people in my area had tons of alpha/beta/unlimited, Arabian nights, Legends, etc. and those original sets are still to this day what I find the most fascinating about the game. I stopped playing with any sort of regularity in the early 2000s and I sort of follow the game somewhat casually today, but I’ll never forget the long nights spent playing cards at that time in my life that I sometimes wish I could go back and relive.

But if WoTC acquired TSR back in 1997, doesn't that mean they'll own the rights to all the D&D content and would be able to reprint the illustrations pasted onto these playtest cards? And they could easily replace any of the artwork they don't own with something similar from their huge back catalogue. It'll never happen, but still, it'd be so cool.

@raulperez23085 жыл бұрын

@JBergmansson5 жыл бұрын
Oh, ok, that changes things. But it seems the card made you sacrifice an island when you played it, so that's still something. I don't understand how they though it reasonable to buff it for alpha. The question is, would "Alternate Time walk" costing 1UU and making you sacrifice an island still have been good enough to be part of the Power 9? By the way, what do you reckon is the baseline these days for getting an extra turn, 5 cmc? 6? "Temporal manipulation" is 3UU, but that's pretty old now. "Karn's temporal sundering" from Dominaria costs 4UU, but has some other effects and conditions. "Part the watervail" is 4UU sorcery with an optional upside. Oh, ixalan had "Time warp" for 3UU, which is just an extra turn immediately. And that has not seen any play.
@raulperez23085 жыл бұрын
Jonas Bergmansson well time warp does technically see play in the old blue turns, but yeah, nobody plays that. and idk, i'd say the base cmc would be five. I mean, there's time warp and also that portal three kingdoms card that is exactly the same but you don't see people complaining about them being broken, because they are not. On the other hand, a cmc4 timewalk effect could definitely be tried, but of course giving it a significant downside

From Rochester, NY, we were a test city, and it was great. My tourney's competed with official ones in the area. The sad thing about MTG, is it's current complexity, which in the first five years was nothing like it is now. It was more fun. These days the endless mechanics and formats allow for decks that are seriously, over-the-top, broken, defying the spirit of the game, exacerbated by how those at your local store are playing not their own ideas, but a bastardization of tourney winning decks they see online. Now, add the cost of being an enthusiast. Back when my friends and I only owned a few boxes of cards, we would just haul our collection around, and build from scratch in 20-30 minutes as we jabbered. Great as it is, I miss the early days.
