Without a doubt Magic: The Gathering can be an expensive game to play. With the explosive growth in popularity and the relatively low supply of some older cards, it’s no wonder why some cards are literally worth more than their weight in gold. Depending which format you play, you can spend as little as forty to sixty dollars for a top tier Pauper deck, to two to three thousand dollars for a Legacy deck. If you haven’t fainted from the price tag yet, hang on it gets worse. If you started playing Magic since day one, or money's no object for you there’s always Vintage where every deck plays one Black Lotus ($6,500) and one of each of the five Moxes (average price $1200), and decks are well over $10,000. With these kind of prices it’s no wonder …show more content…
On one end there are the ultra high end precision machined Japanese imported sleeves and on the other end are the low cost penny sleeves that are really just meant protect a card while it’s in your trade binder. Most people use the middle of the road opaque colored backed card sleeves, which Mayday Games offers. These card sleeves come in a pack of eighty, which is nice considering your Magic deck consist of sixty cards with a fifteen card sideboard. Compare that to another brand that is simpler in quality, but can be purchased in packs of fifty; it’s ultra …show more content…
Dirt, oil, and grime stick to these sleeves making them difficult to shuffle over time. This becomes annoying when you consider you can easily shuffle your deck over three hundred times over the course of week playing Magic. You still have to replace the high end card sleeves as often as regular card sleeves. It makes financial sense to save a few bucks here and there and buy quality sleeves,like the ones that Mayday Games offers, that don’t cost an arm and a leg. I also like to use Mayday Games sleeves when trading Magic cards with others online. I’ve traded several thousands of dollars worth of cards online in the last year, and I’ve used Mayday Games sleeves in shipping my cards out. Mayday sleeves comfortably fit a playset of four cards and still fit within a plastic top loader. Their inexpensive cost have also helped me lower my shipping cost as well. None of the hundreds of people I’ve traded with have complained about damaged or missing cards either. This is pretty amazing when you consider how rough the automatic sorters are on letters with plastic top

...r experience prevails over deck type and that careful deckbuilding is vital. During a game, a player who can more easily see a profitable outcome is bound to succeed over one who cannot. Despite the deck used, it was clear that Jon was able to defeat Jim. However, it is important to use a deck that is suitable in certain environments, even for very experienced players. A deck that thrives on cards that can quickly diminish life before an opponent can cast a single spell is very suitable, while the opposing one is not. A deck needs spells that can win the game when used correctly, and consequently needs the cards that allow you to use them correctly.
Have you ever wondered how some athletes have gotten so good at a certain sport? Have you ever thought about what they did in order for them to get this good? For some the answer is simple; workout and train. But for others the answer is different; the use of performance enhancing drugs such as steroids. There are some people that argue that steroids should be legalized and allowed in professional sports. Other people argue that steroids should not be allowed. Today I am going to state my opinion and justify my reason. Steroids should not be allowed in professional sports because it can be very dangerous to the athlete’s health, it is a way to gain and un-fair advantage and it can be dangerous in both social and physical aspects.
Eggs came first. Millions of years before mammals, eggs existed, their hard shells unlike her mammalian sister who waddles around, heavily crippled with the burden of her womb. Eggs conferred evolutionary advantage.
“The true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him, but because he loves what is behind him” (G.K. Chesterton). A soldier is a soldier no matter what. If they fight behind a screen, on the front line, or from a controller as long as they’re protecting this country, the people in it, and the people fighting for it they are honorable. Some think that because one does their fighting from a remote control drone means that they have no understanding of war, and in some ways that is true, but they are still taking someone’s life when they choose to press that button just like the solders on the front line takes someone’s life when they pull the trigger. Both people are fighting the same fight: they love the country they are defending the people in it they just do it from different standpoints. Drones
Imagine dedicating your life to a university not only on the academic level, but also the athletic level. With a full scholarship your time is dedicated to getting to class on time, finishing assignments, and making it to mandatory practices while also maintaining a strict workout schedule. With your day pretty much full of responsibilities, you do not have the time for a job to pay for anything that you may need outside of tuition, books, and housing. If your car breaks down or you run out of gas you have to pay for that out of your own pocket which is fairly difficult when you do not have an income to cover the costs and if you accept money or free services from any businesses, you could lose you eligibility as a NCAA athlete and lose your
Albert Einstein once said “Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that is it stupid.” Sir Ken Robinson stated that schools are destroying children 's creativity with their curriculum, there are many facts that support this idea. Students are required to think a specific way, prepare the way teachers want them to be prepared. Students also have their own opinion, because they are not afraid to be wrong, and need a way to move forward.
Video games. They provide an escape from reality to explore worlds and realms beyond our own. However there is a lot of controversy surrounding wether or not video games are good for you, many people are under the impression that video games turn kids and adults alike into mindless zombies hellbent on violence but in this essay I aim to convince you that not only is this untrue but that video games are actually beneficial. I’d also like to mention that too much of anything is bad for your health,for example extremely high quantities of broccoli can be toxic.
There are quite literally thousands of different styles of Tarot cards. Sometimes you may find that you simply do not feel a connection with one kind. Some people believe that you should never buy your first deck, they believe that a deck must be given to you as a gift. In this way the mystical forces are finding you and not the other way round. I don’t necessarily agree with this rule as sometimes the perfect deck will find you in other ways. When I first started reading Tarot many years ago, I visited a Mystical shop and was browsing the crystals when a Tarot deck fell off the shelf in front of me and landed at my feet. What made it even stranger was that the deck in question had been hidden from my view. I believe that the deck chose me. I have used many decks since then but the connection I feel when I use those cards is still a powerful feeling. Trust your own
Most people play a lot of card games like Uno or poker. But the thing that makes a card game customizable card game is that the players have their own deck of cards which are totally different from his opponent’s cards. Even before the game starts each opponent will “build decks” by selecting from a big deck of cards. They can create their deck however they like, as long as they stick to the rules of the game which is not possible in games like poker as a standard deck of cards might be finite with 13 cards for each suit plus one or two jokers.
