Your First Card Game?

standard or chemin-de-fer?
Anyways, my first and only card game was a local game distantly related to Bézique.

I would play magic but my expiernce was ruined when people started playing with a deck filled with slivers.

NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO YOU LOSE!

My first Card Game
was
YU GI Oh
i Still have my cards
i haven't been defeated since 1st yr high school ^_^
My deck was Unbeatable hehehehe
who want to have a duel with me >_<

Dude, there are tons of ways to get around slivers....and at this point there are way worse things.

I dunno about getting around slivers man, not a sliver deck... you would have to kill ALL the slivers at once, because they can revive each other. Unless you played a card that did direct damage to your opponent.

Well it mostly depends on which slivers they have out. If they somehow already have all the really good ones out then yeah you're probably screwed unless you have multiple fireballs in your hand or whatnot. If they don't have the crystalline sliver out though you can just unsummon them and counter them when they play them, use pestilences or things that would give all creatures of certain types -1/-1 counters, use your own sliver deck (always fun have slivers vs slivers), use tons of 1/1's as chump blockers and overwhelm them with sheer numbers, instants/enchantments that make them unable to attack or block or ones that let you take control of their creatures work well too, and of course you could just have a red deck with lots of stone rains and lightning bolts or whatever.

The only way I ever one against slivers is by using a fire deck and a bunch of spells to attack directly, and a card that destroys all mana and monsters (including your own). Slivers are OP.

Well they certainly were back in the days before making all your artifacts invincible was a possibility (that right there combined with lack of money to buy cars made me stop collecting).

Pokemon was my first. I had two Mewtwo's in my deck... shit was SO cash

Well, there's Wrath of God, Akroma's Vengance, Decree of Pain, Rout, Austere Command, Damnation, and many others. Better yet, just play a bunch of Engineered Plagues and Extinctions. That will teach them to lay off the slivers.

Slivers have never really been overpowered. Annoying certainly, but there were many ways to beat them, and some decks can just afford to ignore them. Board clearing cards have always existed, and Wrath of God only costs 4 mana to play, so it's not like you'll die before you have a chance to use it all the time. Of course, it's a bit hard to get them, but there are other cards that costs around 5 and 6 that do the job and aren't so hard to acquire. Not to mention, there are many other ways to beat slivers.

First Card Game? Tong-its

Yu-Gi-Oh, FUCK YEAH

Next person better say Magic the Gathering before I fucking DESTROY you.

Wrong shade of red TMS... :roll:
And Pokemon was my first TCG, good times... good times

52 card pick up.

USER WAS TROLLED FOR TMS'S POST

That was actually Nikon, he told me not to do it and I did.

Better yet, play Dark Banishing on them.

Magic the gathering. Funny how I got into it, happened my freshman year in high school. I was walking home from school, when I found a single card on the floor.



The next day I showed it to a friend who said that if I give him that card he'd get me into the game. And he did, so I learned all about the game, and a week later I had already wasted fourty dollars on cards. Don't play much anymore, but still have a metric ton worth of cards.
