I started in 2012. There were 5 of us. My boss, his daughter, me, and two other employees. Boss gave each of us a 60 card kitchen table deck of the color of our choice in penny sleeves and a deck box with our names on it. I got black cause all the other colors got chosen lol. To this day it’s been my most played color. Thanks boss for the lifelong hobby and new friends I made along the way.

Oddly enough I was in rehab and one of the guys had two commander pre cons and I used to play yugioh so I asked him to show me the ropes and we played every single day and the rest is history

Remember this is a beginner box, with two ready to play decks and step by step guide for each one of those two preconstructed decks. Cats and Vampires, that's why they say don't shuffle, and why the lands are mixed up inside. Realistically for a new to magic person, there's incredible value for $30.

I got into magic because I missed playing the other card games like Yugioh, Naruto TCG, and Bakugan. Coming back into the TCG/CCG world, I got curious of the card game Magic the Gathering. I was confused because I didn't understand the lore of it all or where to begin collecting. I saw the universe beyond set booster box of LOTR and i couldn't help myself because I'm such a fan of the trilogy. Had some great pulls including one Nazgul, Sauron the dark lord (foil), an Orcish Bowmaster and other mythics. That began my addiction with these cards. Now I'm starting to get into standard and EDH. currently waiting for my Duskmourn and Foundations bundles. And of course you had a huge influence because your videos are awesome with satisfying pack ripping, charismatic sense of humor, and booming pulls. Thank you Joey!!!

My first deck was Urzas Legacy with the Phyrexian precon. I really enjoyed Urza's block. My brother in law got me started, and he moved away and i sold all my cards on ebay for something stupid like $38. I know for a fact i had Gaea's Cradle, Serras Sanctum, and so much more...

In 4th or 5th grade, i started because of friends in class played d&d and read lord of the rings. His older brother got him into magic, and we all started at our snack break in class. I like that they finally brought the starter/ battle deck back. Why does wizards not see what they do that is wrong? They always remove and bring back products. I dont remember what grade it was, because we were in a 4th and 5th grade emersion program.

Ughh... finally! It took them a very long time to build something that breaks the game down for new players without falling into the "let me talk to you with complex technical terms you won't understand" trap. I appreciate the efforts before, but this? This is fantastic. Starter decks that can be mixed and matched, freedom of choice and expression, cards that do some interesting things when you combine them, and some really fundamental classics that have always been pretty good at showing people what a color is about. Someone new can buy this and have fun for a long time. I love this.

Would love to have seen two or three booster packs mixed in with this set to turn a meh product into a great one. Giving beginners the excitement of cracking something cool for their new decks would be an awesome hook.
@JaeleNistra4 күн бұрын
definitely would be nice for it to throw in 2 jumpstart boosters in this. that way the new players can play around with the ones in the box a bit then each open a sealed jumpstart booster to add to the preset pool and gateway them into getting more jumpstart. the nameing alone makes it fairly clear, and the inserts do mention the other products but it could have been made much more obvious with sealed packs included.
