Magic The Gathering Cards

[The King]

I used to be into them in a BIG way when i was younder, 15-16. I played them when they first starting taking off and it was great i thought. Also had many good saturday days paying them in Belfast. Entered into a All Ireland Competition and came 2nd! My bro came 3rd!

So i stopped playing them because when they got popular the dirtbags hiked the prices up and up and it was just a money making scheme with diluted down cards.

Has anyone played it or still plays it?

I used to play it a lot, but then I just stopped.

Yeah.. my cousin plays Yu-Gi-Oh now. He enters weekly tournaments and his first in his state out of almost a thousand. The prizes he wins are legendary cards which he sells on ebay for about $80 a card. Good business, he'll end up being the rich one. Lol. I will never forget the days playing Pokemon TCG! :P

What series did u stop on Skittles?. I forget which one i stopped on, but it was after ice age, about 3 sets after, i felt it got too watered down.

I still have my collection of cards, sell them later in life when they are worth loads. I have original Arabian Knights, alpha and Beta cards :lol:

My brother used to play that a lot, he used to get money for winning the local tournaments.

Out of fashion my ass. They are still one of the biggest retailing card game ever. Alot of people still play it, there are tournaments in Belfast sometimes, i dont play but if im free i would watch. I won a few caards, i came first in a tournament and my bro second, got some nice old relic cards from Alpha or Beta i think...........

I have a couple of sets. Still play them sometimes. I wouldn't say out of fashion there bigger now than ever. France is going mad over them. It was on the news the other say that someone a load of money in a massive tournament.
