Making my Girlfriend a deck

[IntoFire]

First of all,when I say "girlfriend" I mean my friend whose a girl that wants to start playing.Should I just give her the deck I made for her or just go with an Intro Deck?

[Spikepit]

What is the deck you made for her? I've found over the years, the girls I've helped play have liked {W}{G} because they have the cats, bears, wolves and humans and healing, fixing, protecting and nurturing. That's being very general and pigeon holing but I've taught a lot of girls the game over the years (especially lately being a school teacher) and that's averagely the outcome. Blue Faeries with cantrips is another one due to the choice from a full hand ... and cute Faeries.😃

I've actually taught more just straight RDW than any.

It's really easy for someone to understand play land and turn creatures sideways.

I made her a {U}{W} Azorius deck.She liked thise two colors the best so that's what I made her.

My gf has a thing for faeries so I put together a dimir faerie deck that actually plays pretty well and is fun and very straight forward to play.

Well with the zombie craze I have seen a few girls playing stacked zombie decks "casual"

I played against a girl at FNM who was borrowing a deck from her boyfriend.  She was playing BW sacrificial zombies.

My girlfriend plays a mono black deck with lots of buffs and enchantments

Start with mono color. Most new players learn with green, as it's the most straightforward of all of the strategies, but depending on her personality, she might love black zombies, red burn, or white weenies to start with. In any case, I'd rely heavily on creatures for (and against) her first deck. Don't overwhelm a new player with a lot of instant-speed shenanigans and certainly no manipulating the stack just yet.

When I made a deck for my friend (Not girlfriend) I taught him about the rules, and let him use my cards, and he liked it. I then explained each colour and each guild, and he chose Golgari, moved to simic, then orzhov for a long time, and has finally settled (for now) on rakdos. I would recommend Rakdos, as it's very simple to play and make but can be extremely overpowered. I could post the deck list if you want.I think the easiest guilds are Gruul, Selesnya, Rakdos, and anything else simple Aggro. You could do Azorius, if you left out counter. Then it's very easy.

A girl I like wanted to play magic when she saw me and her friend playing once, let her use my RB innistrad vampire deck and she went nuts.  Since then I try to stay as close to standard as possible since I don't like broken combos, so for her b-day I gave it to her permanently.  Not throwing stereotypes around or anything, but girls certainly do love vampires...

RB? I thought girls liked W vampires, because Edward Cullen. Not saying anything, but...

Idk, all I know is she loved it more than life itself.

It's because {Rakish Heir} is such a stud-muffin.

[IntoFire]

That is pretty sick.
