Untitled: Magic Anyone? →
While I was at camp one of my co-counselors taught me a game that I hadn’t really ever heard of before: Magic. Let’s just say, I’m hooked. This game is awesome. I’m going to go out and buying a deck a.s.a.p. Now when I got home I thought to myself “Who can I possibly play against now that I’m… Congrats on becoming addicted! Stick with us, and we’ll take you places…

notwolf asked: "Pile shuffling: Remember, that in sanctioned Magic, pile shuffling is a Bad Thing. It may get you an infraction for Insufficient Deck Randomization. "

inthemindofagamergirl asked: About my picture, I always shuffle the crap out of my deck, but somehow it always gives me annoying results. All lands, no lands, a hand full of Eldrazi...haha. But it's an Eldrazi deck, so I don't want to get rid of them. And whenever I get crappy hands in a row I'll just deal the cards into 6 piles randomly and shuffle that so they can't clump together.

Well I figured it was about time to pause Fallout 3, and write about my first time experience with Magic the Gathering, and my subsequent feelings about it after I’ve played more. Enjoy. Considering the first thing we did the second I got back into my hometown was go to Target and buy me and my…

Rumor Mill - Mirrodin Pure and New Phyrexia, Split...
The big rumor is that both sets are releasing on the same day, and at pre/release you have to pick a faction and that booster boxes have 18 (I think) of each.  What do you think of this?

Friend: Ever wonder about other things that could be a Magic card?
Me: Sure.
Friend: I cast Jesus.
Me: "When Jesus enters the battlefield, Day of Judgement."
Friend: Oh God.

Rules - Emblems? Scars?
Source: http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/feature/99a An emblem is a new kind of object, different from a card or a token. It’s basically a marker with an ability on it. In fact, the ability is the only characteristic it has. Emblems have no color, name, card type, or anything else—just that ability. They live in the command zone, which is the same place...

dakinandone asked: Ahh I see now! So I cannot kill a planeswalker by attacking it with a creature, I can only remove loyalty points that way. Correct? But any card that affects a "target permanent" I could use on a planeswalker. Therefore, I could destroy the planeswalker with a spell such as Vindicate? Thanks for your help!

dakinandone asked: Planeswalker cards are probably the most confusing things ever. I haven't really done my best to figure them out but can you give me a basic understanding of how they work and how I could destroy one, if that's possible. Thanks!

The Stack - Boxes with Keys
Q: I activate Sorcerer’s Strongbox, untap it with Voltaic Key, and activate it again. If I win both flips, do I get six cards? A: You do! Drawing three cards isn’t contingent upon sacrificing the Strongbox. If you can’t sac it, you do as much as possible: draw three cards.

The Stack - Planeswalkers, Bolt, and Leyline of...
Q: Can I still Lightning Bolt my opponent’s planeswalker when he has out Leyline of Sanctity? A: Oddly enough, you can’t. To “bolt a planeswalker” is a DCI-sanctioned shortcut (that is, your opponent’s not allowed to complain if you use it) for “I target you with this spell, and when it resolves, I will choose to deal the damage to your planeswalker unless you...
