That's right.
I play myself some casual.

I want to go to events though, but i refuse to even come close to netdecking. So its just trial and error till i make myself a decent, new homebrew. the struggle :(

I don't actually net deck. I think of a concept, I collect a whole bunch of cards that seem to fit together then I build a deck. Then I see what other people have done with similar concepts and similar decks (if there are any) and I take a couple of ideas from a couple of different sources, fine tune them to match my play style then add them into my deck, then start play testing again and fine tune again from there. So even though I borrow ideas from other people its not really net decking. My deck list is always unique and its heaps of fun to build. I would recommend this method to anyone who doesn't like net decking.

There's a guy at FNM who not only net decks, but borrows cards from everyone else to build his decks. He usually owns very little of the cards. I personally have no problem with him doing that, but a few people get annoyed by it. At a recent event him and I were the only undefeated players going into the final round, and I had most of the group cheering for me because they didn't want his 'borrowed tier 1 deck' to win. Alas, I didn't quite pull off the upset, but it was still heaps of fun. Whenever I start to get annoyed by people net decking and borrowing cards etc. I just take a deep breath and think 'at least they are not proxying'. Then I don't have a problem with it anymore :)

I dont have a problem with borrowing cards one bit although i think thats pretty bum of them, the netdeckin however? Yea i dont like that. Id rather they proxy a deck of their invention than netdeck any day

Yeah I understand. But I'm of the opinion that if you can't afford/can't be stuffed/for whatever reason if you don't have the cards or can't get them then you don't get to play magic. If you can get them, however, and it doesn't really matter how you got them, then you can use them.

If I couldn't afford to go out to dinner, it's not ok to print off some cash on my computer and use it. It is, however, acceptable to borrow the money off a friend :)

Haha it is indeed acceptable to print cash, as long as you dont get caught!

Well I suppose it is also ok to proxy cards for a mtg tournament, as long as you don't get caught!

I personally do not mind net decking. Yeah they are a pain, but you learn to deal with them. When you go to a gp what are you gonna see? A bunch of those decks. I would rather go to a gp and at least be prepared for them than seeing that deck for the first time. Also on another point, as a rookie I think a net deck is the best way to go. You at least get a deck you aren't fighting with to work, and can worry about learning the game and starting with a good deck. Then from there start creating home brews to beat the net decks. But at least you know what level you need to be competitive on when you do home brew.

I don't net deck. Well I do but only for 1 deck at a time. Currently my Orzhov midrange. But everything else I have is home brew and it wins. Well my legacy is net decked too I guess. Ok I have to net decked decks
