I think my husband has a trick up his sleeve. He asked me to think of a card with my favorite artwork and to let him know. What is your favorite artwork in mtg?

Anyone know what these cheap team bags are called or what brand they are? They look cheaper than conventional team bags but are perfectly usable so fancy some.

I recently thought about starting playing magic again i mainly played yugioh all my teen years and only very shortly magic i wanted to start playing again after almost 12 years i only have my old mono color red deck a friend build for me but I wanted to do a fresh restart by buying a starter deck/kit nothing too fancy just the minimum to play again i don't have intention to do competitive stuff in the near future just having fun any suggestions on starter deck/kit to buy? Thanks in advice and sorry in advice for my bad english

I wonder if anyone knows the artist, because the art style seems familiar and I'm pretty sure it's from the recent artists of MTG...

I've loved the card [[cloudshift]] ever since I started doing magic, but can't seem to make a deck for it. I've tried [[Livio, Oathsworn Sentinel]], [[Mila, crafty companion]] and one of my first decks was an [[Archangel Avacyn]] protect and destroy deck.

Has anyone else made something similar? A deck where timing your [[Deadeye navigator]] activations is just as important as whatever combos with it. What cards do you think are good with that kind of strategy?

My friend played this card in an EDH round the other night and we were wondering how to proceed correctly. I had a couple of effects triggering with my creatures as soon as they come in to play and so did he. Who goes first with all the triggering? Thanks in advance :)

This post isn't me trying to sell anything, but after a close family friend of ours passed, my family and I are helping to get rid of all the clutter in his house. I've had some of what I'd considered to be rare or expensive cards in my own collection.. but nothing like what I'm looking at right now.. I'm looking at graded cards I never thought I'd physically hold in my own hands. Any advice on selling them? Cause I'm genuinely lost on what our options are. Any advice is welcome, my family just wants to see what card shop would offer because they don't understand that they'd be leaving alot on the table. I appreciate any advice.

Edit: I posted from my phone and had random periods everywhere

RULES:

1. No stores or dealers selling on here. We won't stop stores from responding to sell posts with buy offers, though. At that point, it's up to the seller to accept or reject the offer.

2. Do not spam this thread. Your sell/trade offer(s) should be confined to one post per week. If you list multiple cards as separate orders, or multiple lots of cards as separate orders, do so in the same post with a clear delineation. As a seller, you may post whether you want offers within the thread or whether you want a private message. If you want to make this different for different listings, that's your prerogative. State what country you're shipping from and include shipping price+method for your own country. If you are willing to ship to other countries, say so.

3. No eBay posts.

4. If a card is sold/traded, edit your post and invalidate any pending offers for that card. "Short selling" is not acceptable here, since we're dealing in physical goods and shipping times may be an issue, especially if the buyer is a tournament player. Do not short sell cards.

5. Buyers: Post your offer directly underneath a sell listing, unless you are topping someone else's offer, in which case you should post directly underneath that offer.

6. Buyers: Feel free to post a "want" list.

7. For the sake of preventing identity theft and/or harassment, do NOT post identifying information (name, address, paypal info) in the thread.

8. No throwaway accounts.

9. Needless to say, we're Magic players. We don't necessarily have to pay in cash. It's entirely up to the seller whether to consider "2 Force of Will" as a higher/lower bid than $160.

10. There is also a deckbox.org trading area that can be used as well, at

http://deckbox.org/communities/reddit_mtg_trades.

If you have any comments about the rules rather than about a particular auction, feel free to discuss them here.

PAYPAL FEE INFO: (Quoted from Paypal)

Free when the money comes from PayPal balance or bank account.

2.9% + $0.30 USD when the money comes from a debit or credit card or PayPal Credit

MAILING INFO: See USPS Link.

SCAMMER INFO: I will not link it directly here, but be sure to check out the scammer list on deckbox before doing any trading to ensure yourself to having a safe trade!

You probably can't mail off more than one toploader in a normal envelope+stamp due to it being too rigid; and you shouldn't do this for more than $10-20 worth of cards anyway since there's no tracking. Get a bubble mailer and get it tracked.

This is a place for asking simple questions that might not deserve their own thread. For example, if you have a question about a rules interaction, want sleeve and accessory recommendations, or suggestions for your new deck, then this is the place for you.

We encourage that you post any questions that you may have concerning Magic the Gathering here rather than make a separate thread for each question, though for now we won't require that you do so.

Rules Questions

Rules questions and interactions are allowed to be posted here, but if you need an answer quickly it may be best to use a dedicated resource like the 24/7 Magic the Gathering Rules Chat.

Deckbuilding Questions

If you're trying to get help with a deck, it is recommended that you post your decklist to a deckbuilding website so that it is easier to view. Some popular sites are Aetherhub, Archidekt, Deckbox, Deckstats, Moxfield, MtgGoldfish, and TappedOut.

Additionally, please include some description of what you are trying to accomplish. Don't just give us a decklist with no explanation, and don't ask extremely vague questions such as "what cards should I add to my deck to make it better?", because it's hard to give good advice in those cases. Let us know details, the more the better. Are you building with a particular strategy or theme in mind? Are there any non-obvious combo lines or synergies that people should be aware of? Are you struggling with a particular matchup, or are you finding yourself missing consistency in an important area, and need some help specifically for it? Let us know.

Commonly Asked Questions

I opened a card from a different set in my booster pack, is this unusual?

Don't worry, this is completely normal. If you opened a set booster, you have a small chance of obtaining a bonus card from a previous set. This is an extra card that does not replace any of the other cards in your pack, and is from a curated set of past hits that Wizards of the Coast has selected, which they call "The List".

You can view the contents of The List on Wizards of the Coast's official website. For example, the contents of The List for Streets of New Capenna boosters can be found here.

My foil card has a shooting start symbol over the bottom left. I can't find anything about it online.

All old-bordered foils have the shooting star symbol. Most sites that display card images just overlay a generic foil graphic over all foil cards, which doesn't include the shooting star. Your card is normal.

I realise I'm probably in the extreme minority of people who actually might care about this, but I really enjoyed the Team Modern Super League back in the day, and wanted to rewatch and look to update some of the decklists (GB Rock with Ramunap Excavator Field of Ruin lock) but found its been made private.

Does anyone know why this might be?

Every game has things like this that are "known" to the player base but would trip up a new player. Complex interactions that aren't explicitly spelled out but have been part of the game for 10 years so it's "common knowledge" anyway.

What are some MTG examples of this? I'd love to know the lay of the land, speaking as someone who is a newer player.

If i have this cards on the Battlefield. How many damage take my Opponent when i tap for 1 damage?

Is it looked down upon if I don't want to buy multiple sheoldreds, mana drains, tithes, ect. So I but proxies to put in multiple decks while having the originals in a binder? My play group doesn't mind but I'm wondering about LGS game play for commander.

Any Advice for this Deck: https://www.moxfield.com/decks/F4rNPu1jsEyi0sVR5YBWzg

Hey guys, new player here looking for two commander decks for me and my wife (who is also brand new to mtg).

I understand it is cheapest to buy singles, so I am looking for someone to point me in the right direction for deck lists. I am looking for two cheap commander decks that would be great at playing against each other and have loads of replayability. REALLY emphasizing that we want to stay on the cheap side, especially since we are brand new to the game.

Dinosaurs and dragons sound cool but aren't that important :)

Thanks so much for all the help!

As a kid (25 years ago) i loved finding new cards in bulk at the lgs. The dozen stores i have visited this year have no to very limited bulk to search. Do stores still do this?

I live in minneapolis.

Like, lets think about this for a moment. Slivers are adaptation realized. Every sliver bring a unique ability that the hivemind will adapt and utilize. A sliver hivemind on earth could turn life upside down, (as they did on their original realm, where they essentially turned the exiating civilizations and every living thing in it, into their cattle). Then theres the Eldrazi. A living diastaster, but not neccisarily malicious. So, whos worse? Who would be scarier?

If an eldrazi titan manifested into our reality, and started just taking a stroll around earth, who would be the worst for us? Ullamog, thanos snapping everything, just be existing? Kozilek turning everything into a bizmuth maze? Or Emerakul turning people into flesh blobs? Like from a lore standpoint

Any tips of suggestions on this deck?

Is the best commander card bar none. Change my mind...

It ramps everyone and advances game play. It cuts life down. It shortens games and gives you the resources to execute your game plan at the same time. Frees up time for more games.

This card is so GOAT, friends and I were discussing making it a planeschase type of global enchantment when we meet up to play.

I’m confused. What can this card do? I’m new to magic the gathering, and I can’t quite figure out what this does.

Alice in Wonderland

Im new to MTG. And i wanna have an Alice in wonderland themed deck. Any suggestion or up to date deck builds would be nice please and thank you in advance🤩
