What's the best magic the gathering game if I want to play with old school artworks with early rules?

In other words what's the Yugioh the eternal duelist soul of magic the gathering?m
>>
>>385260472
There is none. You could try mtg online, I dunno if it's still around.
The other ps3 games doesn't have old school cards.
>>
Look up Cockatrice. You can use any card art.
>>
Magic has pretty weak game selection, especially compared to Yugioh, but that old PC RPG one is pretty cool.
>>
I don't mind playing against computers btw. I'd like a limited cardpool, like just unlimited edition and arabian knights and such.
>>
>>385261649
I just want to play the card game though, the RPG elements seem too heavy. Plus 1997 is a little late unless it doesn't include the more recent cards from that era.
>>
There is an old Pc RPG which seems quite okay. Shall i look it up or can you find it yourself?
>>
>>385260472
Search for Shandalar.
>>
>>385261649
The old one that used to be put out on demo CDs?
Shit what was that called?

Theres the Duels of the Planeswalkers on steam Pirate them

or Magic:Online where you have to buy cards, though at a much lower price than real cards
>>
>>385261970
Just called Magic the Gathering, but fans call ot Shandalar apparently. I just googled it lol

>>385261754
Pretty sure its the oldest MTG game so you're probably shit outta luck buddy
>>
>>385260472
There is also Forge, but finding it is kindda tricky after Wizards S&D'ed them
>>
>>385262286
I'm open to homebrews,mods etc and shit as well. I might just have to bite the bullet though, apparently the expansions have old cards. Is there a way for me to make a deck and have the AI use it?
>>
>>385260472
microprose magic the gathering is always updated by the fanbase. search it. it will be worth your time.

yugioh players are fucking autist supremes
yugioh day is literally stinky day at my flgs
>>
>>385261328
But nobody goes for early rules.

>>385260472
Also how early? Pre-M10 where combat damage went on the stack? Predating the stack with fucking interrupts and shit?
>>
>>385262809
No.
no.
fuck no.

Magic is for someone with half a fucking brain. Yugioh is for straight kids and retards. I see why you play it.
>>

didn't know triggering MtG fanboys was so easy
>>
>>385263059
Yea you type like a queer

Look up Forge. Doesn't have the early rules but it you can have old school artworks. It also has a solo campaign type of gamemode which I really love.
>>
>>385263145
magic is literally better than Yugioh
But gimme more lewd magical girl, my god did i toot my horn to her a lot as a kid
>>
>>385262965
I'm not going to be playing this shit competitively, I really don't care about balance. I'd like to play OG magic as possible. Limited cards, old artworks, old rules.
>>
>>385263235

because MtG has no hot girls like this fampai
>>
>>385263284
you'll have to find other people wanting to do the same or play shandalar or some shit
>>
>>385263284
You can certainly find players willing to play with limited cards, but dude nobody's going to play with old rules.

Shandalar is the best for "old-school" Magic though. Nothing like starting your first turn by vomiting out playsets of lotuses and moxes, refilling your hand with Contract from Below, mind twisting your opponent's entire hand away, then dropping a Juggernaut to take em to pound town.
>>
>>385261927
>>385262286
>>385262449

this is your answer right here. It was called Magic the Gathering, but everyone just calls it Shandalar because that is what the single player RPG component was called. It's abandonware, so it's easy to find online. Finding an added cards mod you like might be trickier, but if you just search on torrent sites you can find it with pre-configured cards added and already installed.

Yes, you can make decks and give assign the AI to use them outside of the singleplayer RPG, but the AI will probably have trouble with decks relying on specific combo you designed it around.

Download it and take a look. The single player RPG part is more fun than it has any right to. You go around the world dueling other people and you play for ante to collect more cards.
>>
>>385264473
Are there mods to unlock all cards etc? The RPG part seems really really slow to get new cards. I honestly just want to duel against the AI. Opening random packs would be a great bonus though.

please stop giving me (yous) I don't want to embarass MtG players.

I live in Australia and MtG is dead here because Wizards think its a grand idea to not sell new product outside USA. Yeah call me 3rd world shitter cunt I don't care, no excuse for Wizards cucking me out of their TCG simply because of where I live

Literally Shandalar.

It's the fan remake of the MTG game Microprose released in 1996. That's as oldschool as you can get.

This is how it looked.

Notice how every single card on display is unplayably bad now due to powercreep.

Yeah don't do that unless you are playing standard and you are trying to run a playset of current meta cards that are sold out everywhere.

>>
>>385266317
Birds of Paradise is still playable. In fact, WotC refuses to do 1-drop dorks anymore because they think they're too strong.

Also, you're talking about a game that lets you run playsets of shit like Ancestral Recall, Black Lotus, the Moxes, the original Duals, and motherfucking Contract from Below. The cards being powercreeped isn't the issue here.

You're thinking of Vanguard which was at some point a Bushiroad and Konami collaboration. Still, for a relatively new game it seems to be doing well avoiding several pitfalls from its predecessors.
Plus, who doesn't want to a deck build focused on completing RPG game quests and challenges.

Outside of the single player RPG you can assemble any deck you want and assign any deck you want to an AI opponent if that's what you're looking for.

Inside the RPG, it's slow at the start but there are tricks to get the cards you want faster. Getting lucky with the ante and just buying from towns aren't the only way. I can go into it if you're really interested. Otherwise if you want you can always just cheat engine yourself a bunch of amulets and gold and the second you stumble across one of the random events that will let you trade for any card you can just buy whatever the fuck you want. Most of the fun is in the adventure and making progress though. If you just jump in and create a late game deck you're just going to steamroll absolutely everything and get bored.

>>385266343
Buddyfight lost the card game war the moment they gave it such a shit name.
No one took it seriously. Also the art is 50% good stuff and 50% shit of the animecharacters that looks significantly worse.
>>
>>385266343
>>385268003
The wording on the cards are also horrible
>>
>>385268418
The wording on the cards in fine if only done in a way to emphasize the keywords.
