What's everyone's opinion on the duels of the planeswalkers game, for the gaming consoles?

I enjoy it. And I thin they did a great job for what they set out to do with it. Meant for new players and its a great starting point to learn basic rules, rudimentary deck building, subtle nuances. Just an all around great intro to magic.
On the plus side, it's still great fun for vets. My buddy and I love playing 2HG online. For vets it will get stale though

Change your settings. Take off auto target, take off damage effects, put hold priority on... That's all I can remember right now

Great tips.

Also don't freak out when the encounter decks play more than 4 of a kind. And bolas gets a God hand every single time.

You know I remember going up against karn and he goes
Turn one: island, {Wafarer's Bauble}, 2 {Mox Diamond}s, pop off Bauble, END
Turn 2: {Show And Tell} into {Darksteel Colosuss}

How my side of the game went.
Turn one: S$@!
Turn two: RAGE QUIT!!!
