Magic: The Gathering
Mar. 14th, 2004 07:38 pmDusted off the ol' Apprentice online MtG program today. A bunch of peeps from CBR have been getting together over AIM to play, and I haven't had a chance to what with my busy weekday schedule and my parents.
But today, I got a chance to play. For some strange reason, my computer won't connect to MunchKING's, so I didn't get to play the guy who it seems everyone else has been beating to the ground *g*... but I played Daemon (Dantrinoth on AIM), and won 3 out of 3 games. Not bad for having not played for over a year. ^_^
Well, actually, I only won clearly for 2 of the games. The first one really didn't have a clear outcome when he said he wanted to just forfeit and start over. But at that time, we were still pretty even. Both with over 40 life points (the game starts off with 20 life points each) and a multitude of 13/13 elves (most critters are around 1/1 to 3/3 or so in their natural state). It was funny, 'cause he had a vastly pro-elf deck, which gave him oodles of bonuses for every elf in the game. I, by "coincidence", also had an elf-heavy deck, which normally would've only benefitted him, if it weren't for that I also had a smattering of blue-spells which I used to take over his bonus-generator cards. *eg*
Yeah, yeah... that's probably waaay too much info for those of you who don't care a whit for MtG. I'm just feeling good about myself right now. It won't last, I promise. :D
