Well, my wife&#8217;s brother Scott has had some interest in playing Magic. He hasn&#8217;t really played since the mid to late nineties. With that in mind, she invited him over to play some cards with me. As usual, when I get excited about a game, I go full-bore. Now I have a good amount of Magic cards from the last few sets plus some leftover cards from the collection I sold last year. I&#8217;ve also found myself looking up the power decks and strategies.</p>
<p><span id="more-896"></span></p>
<p>He and I played probably 6 games last night. The first couple were his favorite old-skool deck versus my new R/B Aggro deck. He won the first one because I got stuck on one mana and I won the second one when he had the same thing happen to him. We then switched decks and I played a Lorwyn-block goofy Goblin deck. I won that one due to the speed I could get it going. At this point, I started feeling bad, so we both then played one of his older decks. I had the Spiritmonger deck he&#8217;d been playing earlier and he had a W/G deck. I ended up winning that one just based on good draws. I had gotten a couple of smaller creatures well before bringing out the Spiritmonger. Finally, we each then played a Shadowmoor precostructed deck. I chose the W/B and he the R/B. His deck was significantly faster than mine, especially since I got one Plains the first turn and no more lands for like 5 turns.</p>
<p>All the games were fun and so was the conversation. We&#8217;ll probably be playing more about every other Wednesday and he seemed interested in Draft when I told him about it.</p>
