Learning To Play Magic The Gathering

I posted these videos 2 yrs ago and some things have changed in the game and these videos weren't done quite the way I wanted them to be. I am planning to do a remake for 2012. Please be patient. I think I will break up the videos more and make a lot of short ones with labels as to what they are so if people have questions on a specific part of the game they can find it easier.

I have no "Basic Land" cards..... is it still possible to play without it? PLEASE ANSWER

[Dynorider2001]

If you have no basic lands at all the only other way of playing is with either non basic lands or 0 mana cost cards. You need mana to play the game! It is like trying to play monopoly without money...

[Dynorider2001]

If you choose to have 58 mana cards in your deck and 2 creatures that would be legal but the chances of picking the creatures before your opponent kills you... not too good! Why do you ask?

[Dynorider2001]

Please let me know what future videos you would like to see... and don't say "How To Maintain My Nails" :) Sorry I didn't realize my nails were a focus in the video but I will make sure they are presentable next time ok :p

[Dynorider2001]

NOTE: Some rules have changed since I made this video so I apologize for that!

Mana burn no longer exists.

Since 10th edition in a multiplayer game you are allowed a Mulligan w/o a penalty once... then after that one less card is drawn each time. Yes you may Mulligan if you dislike your hand or mana is low or too much...

Terminology has changed a little too instead of "in play" it is "on the battlefield".

[Dynorider2001]

Hand size is maxed at 7 cards at the end of your turn. If you have 9 cards in your hand during your turn and you can play 2 of them before the end of your turn then you don't have to discard any. If not, then you must discard 2 cards at your discard step. The discard step knocks your hand back down to 7 at EOT. Cards like Spellbook alter this cap on your hand...

how much vagina can one expect to get once building an elite deck?

[timbitztvisawsome]

@wisird no??? you obviously need land cards! were you even watching the video...of coarse if you have other sources of mana i suppose you could use those but you should always have land cards

[JConnman1]

@Dubs427 That's hilarious. If your really looking to score some Vag though, check out my Vids on MTGO.

@wisird buy a land pack, fairly cheap and u can't play w.o them!

Can you mix different decks together like mixing Scars of Mirrodin deck with a Zendikar deck so both players get different planeswalker's mana, spells, instants, and creatures? Or should they stay seperate?

0:53 there are actually 10 basic lands in the game
