I really don't want to get it unless I know someone to play with

Charlie has it. Tibs too. I'm debating it.

I just got it, the demo was fun, hopefully this doesn't turn into the digital equivalent to the thousands of dollars worth of cards sitting in my closet.

Last weekend I unlocked a new deck and completed two of the challenges. The AI is a bit difficult even on the lowest setting.

In that case you suck because I've been playing them on the hardest setting and I'm up to challenge 8 on the campaign mode, and I find it almost impossible to lose at this point. And ZX you should bring a deck along to the LAN, I'd love to play some actual cards with someone.

I so wish I could make it to the next LAN.  The next one I get to I will be sure to bring along some of my decks.  I have been playing the twins but they have just learned the game and haven't really found the knack of building and playing a well thought out deck.

As long as they are at least 40 cards and you can play them yes they are valid.  Most of my decks are Fallen Empires and 4th Edition, which are about 15 years old now.

Jesus...this is turning into dice and card game convention instead of a lan.  We are only going to be here for one day....are we going to get ANY pc gaming in?
That's Mr. Deception to you.

  I would too, but I forgot half the errata and everything is all a mish-mash of insane rules now.  My collection is pretty solid from Alpha-Mirage, after that I stopped collecting/playing regularly.

If anyone wants to play online hit me up, id love to do a two headed giant game sometime.

Second game almost went through to completion.  I won but he quit.  His only hope was some creature he tapped all his mana for that I counterspelled, the rape train was just leaving the station and he bailed.

Still counted as a win, I am now ranked #1300ish of all players.
