Footy TCG General

Discuss and arrange matches for Yu-gi-oh, Magic: the Gathering, Pokemon TCG, and other collectible/trading card games here.

I used to play Yugioh casually among friends and acquaintances. I won't claim to be particularly good, but I did collect a good number of cards over the years, whether they came from booster packs or others passing their collections over to me. The four decks I had were a Crystal Beasts deck, a Naturia deck, a Mermail deck and a somewhat generic earth deck with loads of insects for getting out Doom Dozers. I did also occasionally get my hands on a few Pokemon cards, and I have a bunch of old ones in the attic. I probably played my first few and only games of it just over a year ago when I was down the old internet cafe we used to have here, and I enjoyed the little I got to play.

However, last year I got into MTG, and I've been hooked ever since. The resource management aspect of it in particular really appeals to me, since it offers the opportunity to face many choices as you play which may bring you closer to or further from victory. I've been attending pre-release events for new sets and competing in modern standard and block-based limited games, arranging sessions and drafts in the backroom of the local pub, usually buying whole booster boxes to do so. It's been a while since my last game, but I'm already itching to get back to it.

If anyone would be interested in a game of any of these three online somewhere, or even another card game, I'd be stoked to play. I may fail to provide decent competition depending on what it is, but I like to think I grasp things quickly.

I got into MTG in middle school. That was around 2000, with Odyssey block. I fell out of it for years and then got back into it in a casual way in 2014 with friends.

I fell back out of it soon after but I still have all my cards.

I have a new EDH deck, since Commander is the only format that gets played amongst my friends. I'll post the list tomorrow. Mono-blue battlefield control/leviathan beatdown/superfriends. Missing a Tamiyo, The Moon Sage and a chain veil, though...

I played commander with my playgroup in 2014-2015 for a bit, along with pauper 100-card singleton. I never really liked 100-card singleton formats though. I think I'd like pauper more as a regular 60 card deck format.

And I've decided to build Painter/Stone, kind of like described above, but with some major changes to hopefully be a legacy deck eventually.

I've been running a Red/Blue SS3 Goku deck in Dragonball Super and it's fun. I'm trying to optimize it as much as possible. You have 51 cards in a deck counting the leader.

All players start with 8 life, which are represented by cards you draw from your deck and put under your leader at the start of the game. When taking damage, that life card goes into your hand unless the attacking card specifies otherwise.

At the start of every turn, you have the option of putting down a single one of the cards in your hand as energy. Red focuses on aggro while blue is about energy management.

Here's what I'm thinking:

Leader
Son Goku // Heightened Evolution Super Saiyan 3 Son Goku

Red
Saiyan Cabba x 4
Raging Cabba x 4
Hit x 4
Lighting Fast Hit x 4
Manipulating God Champa x 4
Furthering Destruction Champa x 4
Destructive Terror Champa x 4
Assassination Plot x 4
Vados's Assistance x 2

Blue
Energy Boosted Majin Buu x 4
Whis's Coercion x 4
Majin Defier, West Supreme Kai x 4
Powers Combined, Kibito Kai x 4

Sideboard
(These cards are all black. Black cards can usually be played without paying energy, as long as you have cards in "warp" - (banished))
Unrelenting Assault Trunks x 2 - 4
Haru Haru, Attacker Majin x 2 - 4
Shun Shun, Protector Majin x 2 - 4
Supreme Kai of Time, World's Protector x 2 - 4
Time's Judgement x 2 - 4

tl;dr: Does anyone who has more experience with card games and the patience to look through all that have any thoughts/advice?

i've separated all of my legacy deck ideas into three decks:

mono-blue draw-go control
MUD (artifact ramp with metalworker)
red-white painter's servant combo

only the first two are built in paper currently, the third was broken down and the cards used for the first two.

made a list for a 2002 mono green deck. odyssey block with some masques cards. if i cut out the mercadian masques block cards (vine trellis and blastoderm), it could be a legal deck for standard as it was from Nov 1 2002 to Feb 28 2003.

I'd be up for some games of TCG sometime Alakazam, or anybody who wants to play, on https://tcgone.net. It's very easy to use, and free, although you obviously need to know the rules of Pokemon TCG.
