Define really old. Lol

:X

I am guessing you are 21-22.......I would define really old as older than that.  He is right about the kids thing.....very condescending.  This forum has been going for a while with no issues until we had this Eneishi guy.......you don't know him do you?

How far have we come from Net Decking.  roflcopter

And I try to stand up to the bullies around here, because I'm trying to look out for my peeps.

If you feel I'm out of line, please tell me, publicly or privately, I don't care.  Just put it somewhere I'll see it.  Don't hide it in Trades or something.

Lol sorry. I'm a young buck myself at 25 so I'd say 42 (dads age old fart) :)

Pretty close. Haha

My post was a joke I was also highlighting how you can tell I was kidding.

Poof

Don't mean to interrupt but my topic was closed because of this guy with pretty much the same content this guy defending how he's being mature and trying to have a conversation and me obviously disagreeing.  I thought he was trolling.  But maybe this should be closed as well it's only fair.

Poof makes a good point, let's talk about Net Decking.

I look at net decking like gathering information.  I like watching YouTube vids of pro tout matches.....so yea I am cutious about their deck list.  If I get inspired for a build then why not look online to see some similar decks.  You never know what card is out there that you never knew existed.

BlackJester

I don't like the idea of new players thinking that they can just CTRL-V a deck that top players play and expect to win.  But, I do think they find out pretty quick there's more to it.  Magic isn't that easy.

It really is how you play the cards.  I believe this game is equal parts luck, strategy, and the quality of your deck.  I am not a fan of a direct copy and paste either.

I watched my first pro tour quarter finals. It's like a different level. Haha

This is my opinion, again and I limit my comments as to keep it friendly.

Do what you do best.

when you build a deck yourself, you know the intrincate details of it, you know it in and out, and you can adapt it as you see fit to play in your local and regional formats.

Tbh If you developed your own home brew of a net deck you'll have similar results to my first comment. But it's still like this if you have a net deck, there are awnsers for you, there are current standard decks And if your used to playing against them you'll be more apt to deal with them

Another thing about netdecks is mirror matches, whose to say you'll be any better than the next guy, and if it's the same deck you may just find that your not apt to deal with your own problems.

If your just a habitual net-decker, well welcome to 85% of competitive standard. It's to be expected. And you only see the net decks as competitive because that's what you expect. That's why when your at a regionals and you lose to like "scrub u/r burn" or "5 color beasts" you dismiss it as "random Jank" while those people have been working their decks since the beginning of a format

In closing, once again expect net-decks. But you know what the great thing about net-decks is? You can build one to, not to play with, but to play AGAINST! Have your friend play it against you, or vice versa, figure out how to make your brew work against it.

Peace

It might have been said already but people out there see these net decks and build decks to beat them and some of people are like card prodigys. To me it seems more fun to show up with a deck no one has seen before and win rather than with a deck everybody has cause they are not prepared for it. Just my thoughts

Useless.

Why must there be names for people? Lol if you enjoy to play the. You enjoy to play. Whether it be casual or competitive, why not just say you're that. Instead of the ridiculous names like "spike" and "bob" or whatever. Lmao.

Waste of time in my opinion.

It's a slang or jargon...also the same reason I wouldn't understand what a code xxx would be if it were a medical code or a military code. The whole purpose is just give them a name to keep track if what types of people are dominating the consumer base..

I can't believe nobody made a Konami  code joke...

Konami makes me angry, well when they try to make card games work anyway
