  • uhm_àñYönè_wÀnnÃ_chÁt_wíth_mÊ_­í_fëÊl_sÖ_lÓÑËly_tÖDåý▼

  • i´ve always wanted to see something like that!

    hymn... response; techings--- cancel... in response... cancel... in response to that... cancel... and in response to that... CANCEL... wow.

    If anyone has seen a better Stack fight please let me know!

  • I've seen this match here dozens of times. Back when I was a bad aggro player this was the match that made me see the light about control and how awesome it can be to play.

  • u say that yugioh is a childrens card game and you are here complaining like fuking childs¿? hypocrites

  • I remember watching this video when there were only 400 views ><. Glad to see it has become more popular.

  • why are these always in the worst quality..?

  • Why so blur??

  • wow a lot of ppl hate yu gi oh here :S

  • fuck yu-gi-oh!!!!!!!!!! nice magic

  • because no one likes yugioh.

  • beacuse yugioh is a childrens card game

  • yeah, even a baby could play yugioh...

  • @flyingtorpedo1997 no yugioh is for people who shouldn't even be people.

  • @flyingtorpedo1997 That has decided the fate of the universe multiple times over.......Yea I dont get it either

  • these folks make a LIVING playing magic alone, what do you do for a living?

  • No they don't...

    :(

  • psych major? to me its just the simple fact we are human, greed, power, becomming stronger and knowing there is always someone out there better then u and u got an obsatcle to overcome. i also want to be a psych major. but this is just a game that people play to enjoy. just like anyother game like pokemon or yu gi oh. ya u choose the element or strongest monsters or w/e / strategy to go with. but all in all its still a game to play

  • why is the video quality for these videos always such ass?

  • i'm hoping not to get attacked, maybe i can just get some advice? my boyfriend recently got into magic again and has spent 4000 dollars on the power 9. he's been playing magic a lot lately. it feels like i haven't been getting his attention and it hurts a bit. especially since we're in a long distance relationship. i wanted to see what it was that he was into...but i just don't get it...

  • 4000 for all nine is a pretty good deal. If I were you I would kill him in his sleep a pillow muffled shotgun blast to the face and sell his cards and go buy yourself a new dress or something.

  • "A new dress or something?" I don't hold myself to be that shallow. Following a time when I was still naive to the game, I used to cheer him on and say "I would like to you in the element in an tournament one day!"; yet, that feeling waned. It feels a little off-setting going into depth in this world of specialized dialogue and references that's not really my interest, and at an additional shot, has to be my opponent for attention.

  • Components in fantasy like mana, dwarves and elves, adventures in "fantasy" worlds are really a far-cry from where I am at. Though ironic in the sense of the straight word, I'm a magic realist, gravitating toward real life's fruits. Is magic an escape? *sigh* I don't know what I'm looking for. Isn't alright to be selfish and have just a little more attention? I don't see him enough as it is (luckily, 2 or 3 times a year), and I just want to understand what he's into here.

  • The problem is bigger than Magic. Long distance is the problem. Even strong relationships are strained by distance. It's rough and tumble and I feel for you. But if you like long distance relationships with guys who play magic... I'm sorry but I'm just not seeing anyone long distance right now.

  • Many people like me don't have a strong attraction to the fantasy, but really love the game just for the game it is. Half of the fun comes from playing it, but the other half is making the deck the way you want it to be. It feels like an expression of yourself.

    And once you get experienced enough, you'll know the third half of the fun called "drafting."

  • @Alicabob LOL XD XD XD XD XD XD

  • @Alicabob LOL

  • Hit a card shop and learn to play yourself. It's more fun if you understand the thrill that people get from playing the game if you've played and won yourself.

  • Magic is about strategy. I'm a psych major and an advocate of Magic, andfrom what I can tell, Magic lets you have control over what you do. It lets you plan out what you're going to do and why. This could be a draw for your boyfriend, maybe he needs something to "control." I couldn't tell you for sure, but maybe because you two are in a long distance relationship is why he picked up playing Magic, it could possibly be giving him the feeling of control in a situation where he feels he has none.

  • It could just be an outlet for creativity. That is what it is for me. It's not about loving the idea of elves and wizards. If you learn more about the game it could easier to understand why he plays. It's okay if you do not get it. Some people fall in love with the game and some people are confused as to how someone can love a game like Magic. Things will be okay, tell him how you feel and if he cares about you then he will adjust his habits so that he can have both you and magic around.

  • Thanks you guys. It hasn't been instant but I've been acclimating to my boyfriend's hobby. I don't want to be one of those people that put a leash on his hobby and his outlet. I have had numerous talks to him about it and we've come to a resolution. I let him play magic but he makes it up to me afterward lol. We are playful like that ^^; I feel sorry for him though; he gave up friday night magic for lent LOL :)~

  • @folktalebird If you're in a long distance relationship and complaining about a hobby he has taken up then you shouldn't be in a long distance relationship. They never work out anyway.

  • @Padrino13 we are going on 8 years together now :) we've since talked about his magic hobby, and well, came to a compromise. because i neutralize it with my Halo addiction LOL

  • @folktalebird u have a loser boyfriend jk

  • 4g's is a steal even if they are unlimited in a few years they will be worth four times that...just make sure you get some of the funds:)

  • @folktalebird wow, alicabob was a fucking bitch in that comment. If he wasn't the only person who uploads these, i'd go watch somewhere else. I'm honestly sorry, not all magic players/nerds treat women like that. I'm not sure if he was being sarcastic or not, but still, that's not acceptable. Again, i'm very sorry.

  • cool video man sorry u had to real with retards like EEstelt

  • you have got to be fucking kidding me what the fuck i have no interest what so ever in a shit video or fucking card game like this

  • Then why comment at all? If you don't like it then don't watch it. In fact I don't want you to watch it you fucking troll.

  • Great. Here I thought this might go somewhere and I could have some fun fucking with you but instead you start off using the same old tired stereotypical "your a virgin" remark. Very boring and predictable.

  • How the fuck would you know this? Did you do some kind of worldwide survey? You have no clue to who I am or what I do or look like yet your still making wild bigoted blanket statements based on a hobby that is shared by millions of other people. Sounds to me like you don't know what the fuck you are talking about.

  • This is starting to get ridiculous. Obviously you don't know how to play the game and are probably way to stupid to even get a grasp of how it is played so I'm not even going to get into your last comment. This will be my last response to you so let me just say this...

  • You know what fuck you. your blocked.

  • Don't feed the troll!

    I rofl at ignorant morons who get off on downplaying people on the internet about their interests. Your e-peen must be huge.

  • well u got BURNEDEDEDEDEDED lawl

  • I played magic with your mom and I tapped that ass like it could provide 3 mana of any color. I made your mom scream like I removed her from the game entirely. I inflicted some direct damage like I was playin' with a red deck. I call your mom "Demonic Tutor" cause she lets me have anything I want.

  • lol, nice

  • u know what fuck u man where the fuck are u to judge magic players it is a game of skill and mental capabilities

    but i am sorry

    that ur crack smoking bitch ass mom gave birth to such a waste of a life disabled child (you)

    and that your not near smart enough to play this game

  • why isn't there any quarterfinal coverage on Youtube?

  • ohh wao i forgot how to play this card game =s i used ti have my artifact deck... so wasy to win

  • im thinking of starting to collect magic the gathering. should i?

  • Yes.

  • of course

  • yes

  • No, you should start playing it!:D

  • ta wapo

  • cancel to cancel to cancel to cancel

  • Kind of a slow game. But its awesome to watch pros play. The comentary is kind of annoying.

  • constant shuffling @_@

  • Why run Dreadship Reef when you can run Shimmering Grotto?

  • Lorwyn wasn't out at the time of this PT.

  • Oh yeah, sorry.

  • Also, Dreadship Reef is much better than Shimmering Grotto.

  • this game rocks

  • There are three pro tours a year and I think the top 35 make money. 35 gets $200 and first place gets $40,000. They also have a pro-point and level system. The more points you earn in a season the higher level you get. Once you hit level 5 you start to get money for just showing up at Grand Prix or Pro Tours. I will post some links for you in the discription.

  • Why are they using Die?

  • i dont see any dice here. at what time do they show up?

    ive also seen another vid where they use dice to record life points. but what perplexes me is how you can record 1 through 20 on just 2 six sided dice. somone must have the answer here.

  • one dice has a 3 on it this represents 5's. The other has a 5 thease are all 1's.

  • you ever hear of a D20? I use d6's for counters but i couldn't tell you how to keep track of life on d6's other that just tracking damage on multiple dice...but once life gain comes into play its really confusing.

  • It's easy to count life on 4 d6, you just set them all to 5. Pow, 20 life. Then you can low the numbers as necissary. OR raise the numbers as necissary.

  • i use a 20 side die i use them for life

  • You also use a dice in order to determine who goes first and in order to determine a target if a card states that something is chosen "at random". Other uses of the dice are representing counters and tokens of all kinds and of course the most common use, counting life.

  • Y tu apénas vales el esfuerzo de mentarte la madre en linea pero bueno....

  • frikis dice... pero mira al k ve naruto anda esto es un hobby no m jodas niñato

  • it should go back on now that i'm playing...

  • why isnt magic on tv any more??

  • So I've seen this on TV a long time ago. what channel do they air it on? and when do they air it?

  • It was on ESPN2 for a year or so back in in think 1999 or 2000.

  • i'm fron uruguay, but here in south america we saw it in 1996...

    that was only 1 time broadcasted

  • do pros need to buy cards? or wizards just give them the cards they need?

  • I think they buy them.

  • Can anyone please tell me how they can play so quickly without communicating?. With all of the creature abilities and enchantments how do they know what their opponents have and what they can do? I don't play magic but I know the rules, I watched "Learn how to play magic". Do they actually memorize all of the cards so they know what their opponents cards are and there effects? Upside down!?

  • they point

  • What?

  • They point for example "they'll point at you meaning your turn" DA!

  • I still don't understand, I don't play magic I guess it's natural for you guys.

  • yes they probably have most legendary cards that are well known

  • not rly, while they use good cards its not hard to guess what they do. like if u drop a blue card on a creature chances are its a removal. It doesn't take that long to read a description of what the card does lol....

  • dude, just looking at the art and they know whether to wait for a response depending on the mana available and color the opponent has. you take note of the field and come to a conclusion of what is occurring on the board. Plus in a control vs. control matchup, each player knows the strategy for the mirror match .

  • Man, playing Magic is kind of unpopular in LIE.

    Damn!

    Is it adversarial playing 3 different manas?

  • not if you have the right mana sources i.e. you have fetch lands, dual lands, pain lands and the like. also the strategy of what each color will provide to your decks synergy must be researched when making a multicolored deck.

  • i´ve stopped playing since 2007... i´m starting to regret it...

  • just to get this out of the way that is a kick ass table

  • i think Randy Buehler's 1997 Tournament deck is still the best...less monsters but more counterspells...

  • so intense i had to pause it alot to catch my breath.

  • i have red/black gonlin deck the best it pwn u all^^ with my shield of kaldra and goblin piledriver and at the beggining of the game goblin lackey ure screwd^^

  • say hello to Bob Maher Jr's metalworker deck. Goodbye :P

  • Right. You can beat all these guys, thats why you're the one winning the thousands of dollars in cash prizes, right?

  • Goblin decks are for little kids, man. Learn some finer points of the game to build an original deck.

  • i got a kick ass deck black red goblin deck fith two plains walkerks

  • Green/black is my bitch o.o

  • Wafo-Tapa rocks

  • there is only a combination and that's it blue/black!

  • boring.

  • Green/white will pwn you all!

  • god i hate standard haha extended is soooo much better i thinks

  • This is Time Spiral Block Constructed.

  • at that time standard and block constructed were very similair, and i get the two mixed up haha, anyways extended is the best format

  • extended will suck after this year and I just started playing competitive too!  Goblins will then be everywhere even more so without engineered plague.

  • I'm italian, i love this game!

  • im a total newb i just built a spirit craft deck from planes and forest by the way my names cathy

  • i havent played in 10 years but blue/white ftw.

    2 blue controlls you bitch.

    angels dont tap ^^

  • MTG is cool i play with my freinds and if u use a blue deck get some stuffy dolls (i have 4) then use flying the enchant on them and if u get all 4 of em like that if owns all

  • put guilty conscience on the doll. Then tap to win. You can do this as if it had haste with the usually-not-very-good rare from lorwyn 100 year elixir. Excellent.

  • jez if u think its nerd then dont watch this video .. god..

  • Technically, the term is geek, not nerd. (And by the way, I'm a HUGE magic fan. Just bought 12 booster packs yesterday ^^.)

  • I am a little confused as to when this game happened; the announcer said, "Everything's gonna' change with Future Sight..." so is this Ravnica block? I thought that 9th Edition didn't have a "Cancel" to it.

  • Their playing with Damnation and other cards so it must be after TS

  • Yeah, I noticed that too. =)

  • guys plz post here about your decks im really interested tnx

  • My Magic decks include: Simic deck, Rakdos deck, Azorius deck, Decay deck, Gruul deck, Playing-with-Fire deck, Sliver deck, Soldier Alliance deck, Evincar's Tyranny deck, Elf deck, Islandwalk deck, and a black-red-blue deck. Twelve decks in total. Reply to me if you want to know what each deck's specialities are.

  • Tell me plz, i have 5 decks and 1 i made, its an artifacat deck. i love magic, tell me.

  • I left a comment in your YouTube page explaining the decks.

  • sry mate, u havnt. says ocmment box is empty. :( odd

  • srry guys im pretty new at this game. why do those cards have different backs?

  • card covers

  • whats that

  • what is a card cover?

    And this time can you answer nicely?

  • A card cover is a slip where you put your card in to protect it

  • Thanks!

  • they are also called sleeves

  • Everyone is good in their own way. This is a copout because I'm sure the smartest person in the world is always the happiest and vice-versa. Now can we find other debates?

  • Fuck off troll.

  • touch a nerve????

  • Whew, a match with wafo-tapa. Watch the master at work, people.

  • black and blue usualy are the color of the champions.

  • I love my burn deck mmmm instants an sorcery I kill anyone in the first 3-4 turns

  • betcha cant get pass blue control.

  • One of the soon to be classics of Magic history.

    Really good game from both players, showing their capability as world class players. Another classic that should be upload is

    Olivier Ruel vs Kenji Tsumura in Tog vs Tog.

  • this this the mother of all ccg's if it wasent for magic then you wouldnt have magic the gathering if you really wanna play a kickass card game it would be magic its been here since 93 and it will be here long after yugioh and pokemon

  • these came out before yu gi oh

  • and before some idiot says anything: it came out before pokemon too

  • " ilike2smellgirlsfeet, " Magic the Gathering is nothing like yugioh; and anyone who says that it is, is a fuckin retard.

  • Hi my name is dylan i have just got a load of magic cards and i don't know how to play is magic worth playing

  • yes, just go to a local tournament and if the people are nice they'll probably help you learn

  • Does anybody know if there´s a tv channel who broadcast some magic games in the present?

  • There is not right now to the best of my knowledge.

  • People used to kill other people to get into the Pro Tour. I guess that does not happen anymore.

  • hi guys. Just would like to ask a question: Does worship prevent a hellbent demonfire or does it not? Hope u guys can help. thanks

  • it doesn't stop the spell but it does stop you from dying.

  • in iambic pentameter crushed underfoot, the slime oozing from the chalice, the obedient rally to slurp through carbonized eyesockets

    the glop of the dead gods

  • HI I hope someone can help me. I have just started playing magic again after 10 years with a buddy of mine. We had an argument yesterday about the following; When I bring a creature into play I know it is affected by summoning sickness, and it cant attack. But in my opponent's turn straight afterward, can my creature block if my opponent attacks with a creature or does i still have summoninhg sickness? Pleasae help thanku very much

  • Yes. Summoning sickness means you cannot tap it for abilities or tap it to attack until after the end of the turn you summon it.

    You don't tap to block, so you can block with it. And summoning sickness wears off by the time your opponent attacks, so you can tap for abilities as well.

    -AHMAD

  • no thats not right you can block but you cant tap for abilities until the upkeep of your next turn thats when summoning sickness ends

  • You can tap it to use an ability as long as long as the word "tap" is written out, not the tap symbol. EX: Drowner of Secrets from Lorwyn. To use the ability, you have to tap target merfolk you control. You can use the drowner as a target and tap it the same turn you cast it to use its ability.

  • he can block

  • much as i love MtG i wouldnt classify it as 'sport'
