White Mana- This color is usually played by white supremacists, Neo-Nazis and religious fanatics who, when not spending their money on crack, heroin, Fascist flags and bibles, buy cheap flimsy cardboards to use as rolling papers. Being racists, they always buy white Magic cards. Like their supreme overlord(Hitler), this color is all about totalitarianism and order. White is a traditional colour of totalitarian nationalists and Ku Klux Klan. It's a huge satisfaction defeating white mana Nazis.
While I am not a huge fan of the type of games you are reviewing, I have to say that your reviews are excellently done. In my opinion these are far superior and professional than those of "professional" reviewers like IGN or Gamespot. Keep it up.
There are too many problems with this game, for one it will not allow you to chose what step goes first in the main phase, you have to go standard-attack-standard. Second when you have creatures with abilities that can be activated, after an hour of frustrated searching there was no way to use said abilities even when it is your turn.
As a seasoned player of Magic card game, do not get this ..It will only irk you off knowing that everything you have been accustomed to, is irrelevant
I'm most probably gonna get this game. Still remember as a teenager starting it with a bunch of cards, and keep buying new decks as soon as i had saved some money xD
Sadly it seems most my playfriends dropped it off, and after a couple years having no one to play with, it's sweet to see this out.
I have been really wanting to try magic. I played DBZ when i was in 4th and 5th grade. I really like the idea of TCG. My question would this be the best way to learn the game and see if I would like it? $10 to try online or $20 for a starter deck and then learn/find someone to play with.
@vinegarchip Learn with the game. Unless you know a place that live people hang out and play Magic and would be willing to teach you. And even then they will most likely have a deck for you to use. It's one of my favorite things to build starter decks and teach people to play and gradually move them into my advanced decks. However if this is not the case then just buy the computer version and learn that way. It will do a fine job teaching you the rules of magic and how it is currently played.
oh shit, reading some comments here makes me afraid of some kids i might find playing this <_<;; i might stick to the cards if i get too many "yu-gi-oh" shit going around xD or stick to the AI.
Man i used to play the heck out of it, started with cards my friends would hand me, and get more on bet-games and winning cards, damn this was my school years right there.
i stopped playing the game when i was 10 and that was during the giant yugio phase. but i think im gonna go back for 10 bucks and multyplayer and mentoring and such
how do i customize my decks? it only allows me to add/remove cards that ive WON from matches. is there any way i can remove the cards that already came with the deck?
please someone answer, itll be greatly appreciated.
yu gi oh is for kids... magic is for Grown up "kids" that have a working brain...
All the kids that started playing magic in these "uh it's free" days on PSN are so dumb and can't play Magic at all.. even with a Classic green deck...
I started playing Magic when it came to PSN... and now i'm a mediocre player... and have a closed full of "Pants" xD
@dildodill13 xD Even if it's free, you're not going to "buy" it? Lol sorry jk It's definitely not a bad game. If you know the card game or are one for critical thinking and light puzzle solving, this game is a perfect change of pace from whatever Activision trash most people are probably worshiping.
@dildodill13 Woooww. Seriously? This game was created AGES before that simplified kids game. And what is the point of using a sexual term to describe something which has no gender. I have to say, that's rather immature, but I digress. I can confidently say that this game takes legitimate problem solving skill that should be appreciated by anyone with a functioning cerebellum.
@dildodill13 LOL ye sure, here you just got the lame-troll-award of the day, what a lame statement, i hope you were trying to be some sort of troll, otherwise i'm sorry to tell you, you are pretty retarded.
This is easily the best Magic: The Gathering video game to date, but I agree with the reviewer, in that the next one should have a deck-builder, and I also think it would be nice if they could go all-out and have EVERY card ever in it, being able to change the rules to suit the set your playing. :-)
started playing as soon as I got it free, never played mtg before so it's a little complicated lol. But I like it, the single player can be tough though
@SuperJoel67 i hope u do know Yugioh is a rip off of MTG as MTG is basically the ancestor of any trading card game. btw, i play Yugioh as well as MTG, i have been playing Yugioh online for about 3 years
@SuperJoel67 just tried, the control is quite awkward on ps3 :/ it is difficult to use trick like apply shivan dragon's add ATK ability after enemy declare block but before damage phase cause there is no clear distinction between stages within a phase
Yeah it was a great game, but just a little bit too slow moving between turns, you cant 'Undo' actions and the lack of deck customization kills it.
It needed a points system, where every game you won a number of points which you could buy single cards or boosters with it. Gah they had a great opportunity to make this awesome but fell short
I play the card game and I'd like to play it on my pc but the cards you use do you have to buy? I mean I have so much money invested into real cards I'd hate to have to pay for them all over again just so I can play online.
One question - Does this game allow for offline competitive play? E.G., my brother and I want to play against each other without spend a billion dollars on cards. Would buying this game for $5 and playing each other through it be possible?
I love Magic - usually playing with Angels and burning combos - as for this game i too would like a fully custom deck editor - let me mix all the cards i want into the deck if i have those cards unlocked. I have a place i can play draft tourneys but usually have to sleep during them cause of my work schedule >.<
Nice review. Been waiting for a game like this since the old Shandalar MTG game for PC. Now if I could only get Steam to work, so I can buy this damn thing.
u play red all u need is land+inst dmg spell+little defenders(if they let u customize)just toss out all ur dmg spells on target player ignoring what its creatures are doing to u really early cus u end game early cus ur spell dont stand around like ur opponent monster next turn. cheap as hell.
if ur black u just want night hawks (yea pice of shit only cost 3 lands, 2/3+lifelink+flying+deathtouch). facing platinum angel? toss in some "hideous end"/"feast of blood"
dont know about actual game but this game DOES NOT REQUIRE STRATEGY if you could just build your own deck sadly prolly why the creator tried to "balance" by mixing good cards with bad. red mages they dont even need monster card in their deck. even blue mages wont be able to counter all red mages's instant damages if his deck is just all instant damages and lands. (yes stupidly countering a spell cost more than spell itself, so blue mages why not just use the spell instead of countering?)
1st no customizing deck suiting your own "personal" taste was the biggest mistake. i know right? any card (video games) i have played always have a customization. just like the vid say you are stuck with some shitty card (if it weren't for "do not eat the cards" comment) and when you unlock a good card you cannot add it to other decks use the same lands.
second problem balancing, no customization=blue mages deck(or anyone who uses blue lands) SUCKS. if you are blue fan yea bitch ur deck sucks!
looks like a good game but i still find Yu-Gi-Oh the best card game ever.has alot of collectiable cars and its very original and involves much strategy and has much posibilities.
For beginers ONLY. You CAN'T modify and create your own decklists which Magic is all about ! Sideboard is only to add cards, NOT switch which is bullshit ! You cant choose which lands you want to TAP FOR MANA - computer does all the job, often which cause you to loose. GOOD GAME ONLY FOR BEGGINERS !
On Steam you can BUy Deck Unlocks, are those special decks you have to buy, or are those decks unlocked normally through campaign and are just for the unpatient people there to buy?
I love the game, and the challenge modes especially, some of them really make you go nuts! However, the deck management option is terrible. How am I supposed to create decks if I can't remove stuff I don't want? Premade decks are boring. Also I have no idea how to activate the LAN option in the game, it is kind of irritating. Good review, good game.
It is not possible to remove the old cards of a deck? Lame, I thought to buy it but now I really don't feel like doing that. I mean, I understand that there is no free deck building system as they want you to pay fore Magic online or buy the cards but that really is weird.
i used. to love playing magic when i was 11 with my brother. then i got bored and lost interest and sold all my cards for $50 (not kidding, some obese guy with greasy hands and a hobo beard jumped on the offer) now i caught interest again, but im not gonna have a shitload of cards again, so i got this game, it is perfect.
also how did u change ur avatar? sometimes ur a human and then ud change to a lava guy..? my avatar stays the same
Excellent game. One of the best made if not the best made card game I've ever played. The AI is very smart and the actual game mechanics and variety is just brilliant.
Ive just started playing magic and I have a PS3, so this looks like its right up my alley. Theres a game shop by where i live that has FNM and tournaments and shit, but i havent been yet. i think ill play this for a month or so before i go for the first time so im not a complete and utter noob.
@luchador1764 you should look p how to do a draft tournament. They're super fun and it basically putseveryone on an even playing field. FNM tourneys are people with crazy expensive competitive decks, but drafts area great way to start once you learn.

I ordered this game. Coming soon. Cant wait havent played magic in over 8 years :O
Went through my (real) decks today for nostalgia. Cant wait to play this game. Can anyone tell me if they put a more extensive deck editor in the expacks for this game?
Is anyone else stoked about the new tcg coming out called MEGA tcg?
It is the sickest game ever! all the cards are song names like Stairway to heaven, Enter Sandman, etc. plus it is going to have major tournaments all across the US with $10,000 cash prizes for the winners.
I thought this game had a hard learning curve but I learned to play it in like 5mins yesterday and I dominated my friend with my other friend's deck (white/blue). I'm thinking of getting this game
I had some yugioh experience of course but this game has quite more freedom though.
plz plz plz help me i bot this (long tem magic fan) but when i choose my creature to attack i dont know how to sellect it to attack a enemy creature it attomatically chooses to hit the enemy player plz help
@xblizkx You cannot target individual creatures with your own creatures, they can only attack the player. It is up to the defending player to decide whether or not to block with his creatures.

It actually sucks, Card limitations, no good sets, decks come preconstructed animation is cheesy at best,. Im sticking with the Magic Online for card choice, Shandalar for Effects and role play, and Battlemage for PS1 for all out battle Graphics,. This was the worst version of magic they could have released and im very disappointed in wizards,.
Hello, do people still play this online? ive been playing magic for a while now and this seems like a pretty cool game to play once in a while, only thing still keeping me from buying is the limited dec customisation, and well, online play, if its stil active?
Nice review. I was hoping for a full deck editor with the game but too bad. Tried MTGO and it was cool, but hate buying virtual cards with real money...
I dont like how this game uses set decks. They should let you construct your own deck. 90% of the fun/strategy is in creating your own deck and using the right cards, while with preset decks you simply do with what the devs give you, and often while playing online you will run into someone with the exact same setup as you. Gets boring after a while.
I noted you state "unlocking cards adds more land cards"...i think. I started unlocking mass cards once I got some wins. But now sometimes I'll go eight turns and get nothing but mana/land. Its really annoying. Usually ends up with a rage "return to windows"
Love MtG, but complete fail fail fail without a proper deck editor, making decks are half the fun! Being forced to use huge decks, no one would use that in real life, just sucks. Hope they fix it soon.
@ATacticalWaffle, I'd say it retains its fun pretty well. The first time I played through I used the green deck and unlocked all the cards for that. I stopped playing for a bit, but when I came back there were all of the other decks to try out. And with the expansions, you won't get bored of this game too quick.
Hey, just wanted to say thanks to anybody who watched the review and anybody who left comments. You've inspired me to get back into reviewing. Look out later this month for my next one. Thanks again!
very nice review I just pre-ordered this game on steam but wasnt sure whether the game would measure up to expectations set by the card game itself. Thanks a bunch now I just have to be patient:P
This review just made me want this game so much my only problem is the deck editor that could be game breaking for me since the 1st thing i do when i get a new deck is toss out some cards and changing it to suit my play style hope fully the pc version will have a full editor. Great review by the way
What? you can't remove cards from a deck and make ya own custom one? thats not cool. And tbh I think MTG 3 is better in that respect despite its less graphical effect.
i do like card games and this has made me decide on my decision that i am getting it :)

Grip over MTGonline ???? What are you talking about? Believe me, they have a grip all right, but not over anything digital related.
BTW the Giant Growthing the Raging Gobling was hilarious, nice review.

So... You can't edit your own deck?... Can you attain multi-coloured cards (eg: from the ravnica block?)

PC version its so smooth, A very sloppy port from console. Online doesnt work, lots of bugs.
Wizard need to get theirs ass together and give us an update -_-
I really hope they make a deck editor, that would be sick.

It is not possible to remove the old cards of a deck? Lame, I thought to buy it but now I really don't feel like doing that. I mean, I understand that there is no free deck building system as they want you to pay fore Magic online or buy the cards but that really is weird.

i used. to love playing magic when i was 11 with my brother. then i got bored and lost interest and sold all my cards for $50 (not kidding, some obese guy with greasy hands and a hobo beard jumped on the offer) now i caught interest again, but im not gonna have a shitload of cards again, so i got this game, it is perfect.

Ive just started playing magic and I have a PS3, so this looks like its right up my alley. Theres a game shop by where i live that has FNM and tournaments and shit, but i havent been yet. i think ill play this for a month or so before i go for the first time so im not a complete and utter noob.

@luchador1764 you should look p how to do a draft tournament. They're super fun and it basically putseveryone on an even playing field. FNM tourneys are people with crazy expensive competitive decks, but drafts area great way to start once you learn.

Nice review. One thing though: Mtg Battlegrounds actually looks a lot better than the pixelthing you showed and is a great game for it's time.
Only problem there is that it's not magic. It uses the creatures and some mechanics from magic but you're playing a different game.

Is anyone else stoked about the new tcg coming out called MEGA tcg?
It is the sickest game ever! all the cards are song names like Stairway to heaven, Enter Sandman, etc. plus it is going to have major tournaments all across the US with $10,000 cash prizes for the winners.
They have some pre-release cards for sale already
go to google and type in:
enter sandman trading card
should be the 2nd search result

great Review mate!
I thought this game had a hard learning curve but I learned to play it in like 5mins yesterday and I dominated my friend with my other friend's deck (white/blue). I'm thinking of getting this game
I had some yugioh experience of course but this game has quite more freedom though.

@xblizkx You cannot target individual creatures with your own creatures, they can only attack the player. It is up to the defending player to decide whether or not to block with his creatures.

It actually sucks, Card limitations, no good sets, decks come preconstructed animation is cheesy at best,. Im sticking with the Magic Online for card choice, Shandalar for Effects and role play, and Battlemage for PS1 for all out battle Graphics,. This was the worst version of magic they could have released and im very disappointed in wizards,.

Hello, do people still play this online? ive been playing magic for a while now and this seems like a pretty cool game to play once in a while, only thing still keeping me from buying is the limited dec customisation, and well, online play, if its stil active?
Thanks,

Nice review. I was hoping for a full deck editor with the game but too bad. Tried MTGO and it was cool, but hate buying virtual cards with real money...
kii064 1 year ago
I dont like how this game uses set decks. They should let you construct your own deck. 90% of the fun/strategy is in creating your own deck and using the right cards, while with preset decks you simply do with what the devs give you, and often while playing online you will run into someone with the exact same setup as you. Gets boring after a while.

I noted you state "unlocking cards adds more land cards"...i think. I started unlocking mass cards once I got some wins. But now sometimes I'll go eight turns and get nothing but mana/land. Its really annoying. Usually ends up with a rage "return to windows"

Love MtG, but complete fail fail fail without a proper deck editor, making decks are half the fun! Being forced to use huge decks, no one would use that in real life, just sucks. Hope they fix it soon.

For someone who has been playing Magic for a few years now, is it still fun? I could see it getting boring with the same decks.
ATacticalWaffle 1 year ago 5
@ATacticalWaffle, I'd say it retains its fun pretty well. The first time I played through I used the green deck and unlocked all the cards for that. I stopped playing for a bit, but when I came back there were all of the other decks to try out. And with the expansions, you won't get bored of this game too quick.
