| I'd half your deck size. 60 cards is just the right amount for a tight mana curve, consistent draws and ability to win consistently I'd give more advice, but I'm very tired right now |

| 120 card deck? no no no no no. 60. what cards did you get, like an intro pack or something? I'd recommend picking up one of the dragons maze intro packs as they're pretty good - rakdos, orzhov, and gruul are the best ones this set. Once you've got your head around the intro deck, how it works, and how decks work, you can start prototyping your own online on something like tappedout.net otherwise.. come to forbidden planet or excelsior game nights (sundays and tuesdays respectively) when there's casual or standard going on (modern you will die soooo bad it wont be fun). I think next week is casual at excelsior, and not this sunday but next sunday is the dgm games day (standard play) at forbidden planet. |

as in that quote I said to simon.. get an intro pack. They're £13 here, you get a 60 card deck that's pretty good for what it is,plus two booster packs. Lets you get into the game,then I'd search on the MTG website for events near you, there are often weekly events called friday night magic that go on all over the world, I'm sure there's one nearish you go to them, meet people, make friends, and you'll slowly get into it. OR there's MTGO, but that's another expense and hahaha mikkel that is epic. especially the flavour text, it makes it like 34098230498 times funnier XD |
