Therapist says I need to get out more, says find a hobby. I used to play magic back in the day 20 years ago finally say why not get back into that looking to buying cards what the hell is going on with the prices, every single nerd subgroup hobby is now overpriced. Are you telling me Pokemon cards ,mtg , old school Nintendo and Legos are now valuable assets. It's not gold it's not silver it's not houses or classic cars it's the nerd garbage
>>536270155Pauper cube nigga. Just put all your common and uncommon shinies in it and don't put in too many hyper specific tribal effect cards because those suck in draft
>>536270155mtg has been dead for a while now. black lotr characters, ninja turtles, spider man, the discord ran by trannies. it's over fren
>>536270155You could play YGO.YGO has been designed and printed with sole objective to be played.>Play YGO>Collect PKMN>"Invest" MTG

>>536270838I dont like black people
>>53627015>TherapistTherapists sit there getting their mortgage paid while you whine like a little bitch about your life and then they might rattle off some cliched response every now and then. Then it's onto the next sad twat who walks through the door for some easy money.
>>536270899Women have no hobies
You can get a playable Commando deck without spending a fortune. This thread belongs on /tg/ not /pol/.I am not happy with the current state of Magic, but I grin and bear it because I like going out to the LGS to play and socialize.
All the cool mythics from before they started the flashy era (2018) are dirt cheap. Make a cube and have fun with friends, anon
>>536270503trump won cause of black aragorn
>>536270155just fish local ponds and piss off retards
>>536270155Magic has also become 6x as complex. I know it's a game for nerds, and I have a 93rd percentile IQ so I can handle the complexity... But it's also a fucking card game. It's supposed to be fun. I shouldn't need to think so hard to enjoy it.
>>536270155What your therapist won’t tell you is that you’re a pussy who wouldn’t be missed if he an heroed. Make something of life or don’t, but the fact that you’re at a therapist in the first place is the first sign that you won’t. Pathetic whining is disgusting.
>>536270155My best bro always says to get into drugs, it's far cheaper than Magic. He's a super Magic nerd, he also has all the old shit like P9 or whatever the fuck these overpriced shits are called in the nerd circles that you can't even play with. I once took a random new land card, just pretended to tear it up while he was going through his old cards. (You know the fake tear while you make a pfft sound shit), he did not find that funny at all.
>>536270155It's dead Jim.
>>536270400>"Pauper cube" doesn't mean commons onlyFix yourself, faggot.
>>536270155Played mtg, had black lotuses and stuff. Would of liked to play with my son's but wotc had to be racist, ban cards, make it extremely tedious and complicated for a card game, priced out players, made black aragorn and other "woke" sets, scalping, etc.. I just couldn't do it.
You dont buy cards. Thats a fucking scam. You go to Friday Night magic every once in a while to do sealed/draft tourneys so the playing field is mostly level. The best is pre-release, as with the exception of a few gigantic faggots, the cards are new to most players too. Cheaper then a night at the bar.
>>536270155We haven't see anything yet, their nerd garbage will be like how boomers treat their homes in the future. Look at Gen X with the beaniebabies. Are Labubus a thing still or did it die?
>>536270155I just made a budget EDH deck for my buddy that ended its last game with 27 mana, 7 exploding 5/5s, and 13 6/2s on the field, and it only cost me $50. Git gud.
>>536272095My bro only has a couple of old friends he plays with. He used to go to the usual playing places, but these people are severely autistic and half of them don't shower even once a week. I watched him once or twice when we were younger just to see what he's on about when he says "I'm going to a tournament." For a non-Magic player it's about as exiting as watching paint dry (paint with severe bo). If I had to put a number on it, I would say 98% of his Magic time is spent going through his cards over and over again like an autist, thinking about deck ideas/building decks, buying and selling cards on some Magic Marketplace site, the other 2% he's actually playing.
>>536270400>I have no friends>better get into cube, the format that requires you to already have a regular playgroup to play>in a format that literally requires you to buy overtly expensive commonsRetard.
>>536271611What is remotely complex about Magic? Yu-Gi-Oh is still to this day the more complex game.
>>536272506Oh yeah you cant go to those things on anything resembling a regular basis. I try and make it to one twice a year. You just have to embrace the stank and refrain from showering yourself in the days leading up to it.The lustre has worn off, so I see far fewer women these days ruining things. Of course there will be a few troons, but when they are jacked construction workers wearing pink dresses it is just funny.
>>536270977(((Therapists))) are just trying to get to you before you try and talk to God. They're like the priests of modernity.
>>536272506Building a deck is literally part of the fun for some people, yes. Especially once you get into developing pie charts to represent your mana ratio and bar graphs for your mana curve. Every single stage of playing Magic is designed to be addictive, that's not even a secret. They made it this way on purpose because white people know how to have fun. Statistics are fun..
>>536272763He kept all of his valuable cards in my place for years while he had a flat in a shady area. I must have had cards that were worth several 10k EUR just sitting on my cupboard in some boxes collecting dust. He wouldn't keep them at his mother's place, she would have fucked those "devil cards" up like a pitbull. Every few months when we had nothing better to do and we chilled at my place, he said "let me see them" then he just sat there for an hour with a Gollum expression on his face going through his cards. I don't know why, but that was always the funniest shit to me. I remember once or twice during a phone call, he randomly asked "Are they still there, bro? Please check!" I don't know why, but I piss myself laughing just remembering this shit.
>>536271994Uhhh well it works with uncommons too on my machine. >>536272617>requiresYou can put literally anything in a Pauper cube so long as it's cheap. Idk what literal definition you guys are using but in my world, Pauper cube means 300 cheap cards
>>536271866That's George Floyd isn't it damn it. I just wanted something to do besides be angry all the time
>>536270155if you have any local game stores I would ask if they have any pauper nights. the point of regular pauper is you can build a decent deck with 30 dollars and a silly idea. If you like EDH you should give it a look too, there is even a pauper format where you pick an uncommon card as your commander
>>536273674Just because it's all commons doesn't mean you're actually playing Pauper. Words have meanings.
>>536270155Imagine if therapists actually were interested in helping people and doing what it takes. A therapist could easily organize an MTG group for her lonely patients. She could easily organize dates for her incel and femcel patients. She could easily go out to places with her social phobia patients. But they never do these things. Instead, the typical sessions are just you talking bullshit and the therapist doing nothing, or you filling out standardized forms and the therapist counting whatever score you get on this week's bullshit questionnaire, or a therapist organizing some retarded group therapy session where everyone is forced to do arts and crafts meant for literal toddlers. 99.9 % of therapists are worse than useless.
>>536272617>buy overtly expensive commonslmao at this literal hobo
>>536270155Get into building AR's. Super fun and useful skill.
>>536270155Yes. Inflation means that people will subconsciously spend on assets. That's why all hobbies are so expensive now.
>>536278938If you're just playing with your friends, why wouldn't you simply print these cards? 100 euros to buy a printer, some paper, and sleeves, and you can play any deck you want, or thousands of euros to buy whatever it is you have there. Seems like an obvious choice to me.
>>536270155Incel slide thread Thanks for shitting up the board. U might as well be a pajeet. This goes out to all the other limp wristed faggots. Anyone that plays magic is an automatic faggot imho. Lift some weights faggot.
>>536270503Mtg? Marjorie taylor greene?
>>536271866We iz elphs and shiieett
>>536279590>why wouldn't you simply print these cards?Because that would make it a game of chance or skill, instead of pay-to-win.The whole purpose of collectibles is pay-to-win and this can only exist if you enforce artificial scarcity.If everyone has a Charizard the whole friggin economy will collapse!
You can buy lots of 1000 cards for 20 bucks online. Make a few shitty decks and play with them.Faggots with their specialized hand crafted win In three turn decks ruined the game when it used to be fun
>>536279590>whybecause victory isn't enough, i must flex on my opponents too.
>>536278938Yes because you are soooo cool for knowing Underground Sea while still wasting money on bic lighters.
>>536280612Changification
>>536270155>>536270838Lol pay up OP bitch, and remember to tip your therapist.
>>536270155I grew up playing but never went to Friday night magic or anything. Just around the neighbourhood. Fun game.
>>536270155MtG is gay and retarded now. Try blood bowl instead.
