Well, look at it this way - the loss was only for that event, but the foil Scorpion God is yours for life. Nice pull! smile.gif

I missed the pre-release events as I didn't have time on Fridays or Saturday, and so only managed to buy a couple of pre-release packs on Wednesday. Went home, played a couple sealed games with my son, and we ended at 1-1. My son drew a Scarab God while I drew an Overwhelming Splendour (and which won me the second game). Our promo foils were a bit meh, although I did get a God-Pharaoh's Gift.

Nice. The prerelease packs are great. They have all the right stuff inside for a good pickup session. You can even do 4 player drafting with 2 prerelease packs.

I didn't play prerelease for this set but got in a draft session for this week's Draft Weekend. Lost all the way but it's great to meet some new faces.

The problem with all these card games is the new generation is getting stronger and stronger. I am hoping to look for a collector.

C/UC sets can be bought for very cheap. So your collection is only worth the rares ... good luck with that price tag.

Yeah, minimum C/UC prices quoted online also usually refer to the price you have to pay if you want to buy them for whatever reason and can't find them lying around unwanted, instead of the actual chance of you getting that money if selling them too.

Are there any shops around Orchard Road which sell Magic the Gathering cards? I'll be staying there for one night tomorrow, but I don't recall ever seeing them.

Anybody still playing? Recently just pick up this game.
Went to a local game store but don't feel like going again before I can play "fluently". As I am still new, so I made silly mistake like I play a land card before I draw, take longer time to read the cards, need explanation on what my opponent cards do...etc.. People seems not interested to play with me as it might be quite annoying...

So if anyone willing to meet at cafe/Starbucks for a game or 2, i am happy to meet up, thank you!

Welcome to the game. There is an upcoming event caters to new Magic players. It is on November 19th and called Magic Open House (Rivals of Ixalan). It's free of charge, you get free cards and most of the Magic shop around will host it.

Since you are in JB and I'm in KL, I'll suggest you to Google Magic shops in JB or SG for that event.

temped to try commander (or some likes to call it 'elder dragon highlander'), owns no cards prior to kaladesh block...ended up exhausted all my reserved $$ this month for iconic masters box sad.gif

2.6 billion donation, plz...

*sigh*

@CreamMilk
welcome to the game. smile.gif

there are few stuffs you need to take note of:
1. get singles - sometimes our luck just... bleh... and it'll made you ponder what directions you took in your life... when a dude next to you pulled nissa out of 1 pack, glory bringer from another then a foiled niccy...

2. FNM was better last time due to the reward but it's still good to practice the phases and get to know the rules (keywords like 'dwelve', 'exert', 'prowess', 'fear', etc) and familiarize with many odd mechanics (like EOT sac, blocking sac and most importantly... THE STACK!!!)

3. card vulture - people will crack packs to try their luck and often would they leave some, it's a good way to get cards (you can get rares if lucky). remember to ask them about their discarded pile before taking any cards

4. start cheap - dual lands are usually a good way to fix mana but they are f**kin' expensive (cheaper if you opt for tap lands), use basic lands instead. always look for deck alternative instead of following latest deck trends cause they cost a lot. build up your financial

wat ashburn98 mentioned is a good way to get few cards to play. go visit LGS during that day and shamelessly request additional decks (if possible). you can store those decks in your cars, your room, your garage and it's a good way to party with fwens, all you need is just a bunch of basic lands...

fyi, there would oso be an event held somewhere in SG next month, no points required to enter (unlike the one at quill city mall... *sigh*). i was encouraged to go and try my luck (LGS owner was like, 'woooi... go laaaa... help cut down the cost, we can share room wat... sg got lotsa lenglui oso...'), but izzet prowess deck i made is still unstable... prolly scrap it for mono black tokens... becoz... TOKENS!!!

ofkos there are few alternative ways to play the game, such as the official wotc product like MTGO (initial registration, booster packs requires $$, in game tix is more important) and it's b*st*rd line of 'duels of the plainswalkers... or just use unsanctioned clients like c*cktrice, xm*ge to play but those would lack interaction, plus familiarizing controls are always an issue...

Wow, thanks for the tips & guide, I could not understand most of the jargon sweat.gif
I might look into MTG Online too if I could not visit LGS frequently, just that I am very reluctant to spend more $$$ to get digital magic cards.
Yes I have heard about the Singapore GP, as told by the LGS boss which I visited that day, the registration fee is kinda steep though and most importantly I am not around on 15th December, will only be back to Singapore on 16th December, most likely. So probably would drop by on 16 or 17 to look see look see.
