Are you doing anything this Saturday? Do you wish you were?
Go out and play magic! Many places are doing a sealed event for the Amonkhet release.
What happens is you go the store, pay 30 bucks and get 6 packs. Open those packs and make your 40 card deck with those cards.
The events usually last around 3-4 hours, depending on the size.
You don't need a 4000 dollar deck to enjoy magic.

If you are going, and have not played Magic before, make sure you take some time to learn how to play.

For those who have never built a sealed deck, Channel Fireball did make a neat primer. https://www.channelfireball.com/articles/the-amonkhet-prerelease-primer/

>its a major company trying to do viral marketing on r9k episode
well fuck
>>36640703I just want to play magic with more people.Also I want to get rid of the notion that Magic requires expensive decks.

I already know what would happen if I were to go to one of these things, I'd just be quiet and alone.
This morning I was street preaching and I'll watch boxing tonight with parents (Joshua v Klitschko). Just relaxing in between.

>This morning I was street preaching
Provide greentext ?
Why do you street preach ? Is it comfy ? What would happen if I talked to a street preacher ?

Even if like me, you can't start a conversation, it's fine. It's a casual tournament setting, so matches are arranged for you.
>>36640257
I'm not smart enough for strategy games. Being stupid really is the worst feel.

I do it with my church. Group of us take turns do it for five minutes max in between songs then we disband and speak to people.
Long preaching isn't very effective because it just makes you look crazy and unless somebody is actively listening to the whole thing they won't get the message.
If you spoke to one of us we would try to share the Gospel and invite you to church. If you were very open we'd try and get you to accept Jesus and say a prayer of repentance.

1) Magic is a shitty game
2) fuck off viral marketer

>>36640809
Do you actually believe ? Why are you on r9k and where are you from ?
>>36640826
Rude.
>>36640843
No. I'm on r9k because it's my online home. From England.
>playing shitty collectible card games
>not playing glorious LCGs
Netrunner's where it's at.

Why do you do it if you don't believe ?
Magic isn't shit. It's fun to make one uber 1v1 deck.
>>36640257
Why don't you advertise a CHEAP format with superior gameplay such as Pauper instead?
Oh wait, you're a Hasbro shill.
>>36641490
There is like one person at my lgs that plays Pauper.
>>36641818
Well, that's why you need to advertise it.
>It's cheap
>Doesn't rotate
>Diverse metagame
>Can play some of the strongest magic cards without restrictions (Ponder, Preordain, Probe, Brainstorm, Gush, ...)
What's not to like? It's the perfect format for newbies and experienced players alike.
I wish I had friend to play with
I'm too shy to go to an lgs and online is a tad boring after a time
>>36640257
