I started playing just after the boarder changes, so probably near the release of
Eighth Edition, but I understand what you are saying. Everything seems to be moving faster than ever at the moment. I still play occassionally and might even purchase cards, but these days it's always singles and only in the interest of a new deck idea. You still own some - any memorable games, or deck ideas you want to share?
I recently perfected my old
en-kor deck, that uses damage redirection and protection to mess with a strong opponent. Cards like the above can work very well with
Stuffy Doll or
Wall of Souls. Sometimes it's fun to test an interesting idea even if it isnt the most effective (because winning in the most annoying way possible is very satisfying when it occurs!).
