supernerds: MTG discussion, vintage type two legacy you name it.

[Knugget]

fuck i want to play.

[ProfMonnitoff]

What's that shit where your deck is like 250 cards or whatever? As I stopped playing, it got sort of popular around here. That always looked fun.

are you thinking of highlander? you could play only one of each card in that gametype. there was also some ruleset where you played no lands, but could choose to play any card as a mana source. shit was weird.

then there was this great card in odyssey called battle of wits that allowed you to win the game if you had at least 200 cards in your library, and tons of dudes tried to make it work, but nobody ever really got anywhere.

i'll probably be in new york early september so still a while away

[sawn-off chef]

if you are in the east coast you can totally join, i have spare places for dudes to crash. this could be fun, but i might come off as creepy as hell.

moneytuff thats mental magic, and it is so much fun. and battle of witts was a good deck idea but it just didn't have the power to work.

[Knugget]

fuck i'm a westie.

Yeah, I think it was highlander.

If I end up moving to Philly, I'd be down for some eastcoast nerd meetup. Being in Chicago now sort of makes it unfeasible.

[sawn-off chef]

well anyone that needs a place to crash my house is open, and if you ever do move out east or visit here let us know, nothings solid yet date wise.

I'm down if it's over the summer (when I'm in NY).

I can help out with rides and shit.

Type 4 is so good. Just pulled out my deck and there's so many shitty cards that get amazing (Glarecaster)

FUCK YES HOLLYWOOD YOU BETTER BRING IT. and yes it'll be over the summer, you can count on it.

[Jkissi7]

I'll attend just to stare

[sawn-off chef]

josh you are more than welcome hahah.

[ProfMonnitoff]

what the hell is type 4

there's block, type 2, extended, 1.5, and 1

[nickthechibi]

I never learned to play any of these game types or w/e

just played the normal, tourny way? but like informally between friends

yo anyone cop any of the newer sets? my cousin pulling some treefolk deck shit that I haven't beat yet without a bunch of flyers

turning all his shit invincible, got trample

shit plus they like 10/10s within 4 turns

any way to counter this? no blue deck. fast life burn isn't fast enough

[Mewtu]

yeah I don't think I could do it soon either because of school, summer probably.

counterspells and WoG? In short, 5c control or faeries or any tourny level deck really.

[sawn-off chef]

this is definitely going to happen in the summer, it'll be great. but type 4 is a player created game where you have a deck of around 400-1000 cards and each player gets to pick a card out of 8 cards dealt and then the players make a deck out of the cards they pick. then each players get one spell per turn, and on top of that its infinite mana, so in essence you could win first turn, it's a sudden death game but its amazing and has so much fun involved.

[ProfMonnitoff]

that sounds really stupid

any creature with a half decent ability that doesnt require tapping is basically a stupid overpowered machine

[sawn-off chef]

well the idea is that there are around 8 to 20 people playing, it's honestly so much fun.

[xh0llyw00dxx]

It works because everyone has a stupid overpowered machine.

And ridiculous counters for free like Decree of Silence and Spelljack

And Plague Wind, etc.

[ProfMonnitoff]

so is it like

decree of justice infinite 4/4 angel dudes

fireball, 140 damage to 7 targets

stroke of genius draw the entire deck

[sawn-off chef]

it's a game of brokenness, everything has a response.

[sawn-off chef]

pretty much, then someone uses a card to destroy all creatures, another guy destroys all enchantments its ridiculous.

[Guest barbarian]

holy shit didn't know sufu had any mtg following at all

played so much back in the day, mostly with friends, only sanctioned games I played were limited because I hate standard and didn't have the cards/skill for extended.

Started when I was fairly young around Urza's Legacy, stopped right after Invasion, got back into it for a bit at around Torment. Funnily enough, my friend told me yesterday that he had the urge to play mtg again so I think we're getting together this weekend to play.

[Mewtu]

word. Next Friday I think I'm going to go play FNM if it's limited. Frat parties are getting kind of beat.

[ProfMonnitoff]

i just really want to play sealed

6 (sometimes 7) boosters, any amount of lands

its more chill than draft if youre playing with people of varying skills, also drafts are pretty much only fun if it's 8 people at a table

[xh0llyw00dxx]

You can buy randomized boxes for sealed, comes with lands and 60 or 75 cards

[nickthechibi]

yo, anyone MTG du's near Reno?

you can hit up a bunch of cardshop places/convenience stores that stock mtg shit. packs for like 1$ bunch of starter decks for 4/5/6$

[Mewtu]

sealed is normally tourney pack and 2 boosters.

[bernt]

Sealed is the shit. Booster box and 2 packs. My friends and I would do that all the time back in like 7th grade. Save up allowance and lunch money/lawn mowing money and blow it all on a friday night playing magic.

[sawn-off chef]

man guys this thread has gotten me so pumped to play, we seriously are doing a meet up this summer.

[nickthechibi]

^^^ word

also, to anyone in Irvine, there's a store that's in the shopping center right by the UC - sort of by where In&out/Albertson's is that sells tons of vintage rares from older sets for like 10cents a pop

[moland]

Wow, I cant believe there are so many MTG players/explayers on SuFu. Not something you would expect... I havent played in like 4-5 years. I started around Prophecy and stopped at Scourge.

Used to play a black/blue deck, based around Psychatog, was unbeatable back then. I used to play at Hurricane in Flushing for tourneys and stuff, shit was serious there. If there really is gonna be a Magic tourney or something, I'll nerd it up and break out the deck.
