Long time MtG player (17 years?) and with what's happening to the game rn, i don't really have much interest in any of the new sets.

Sorcery looks like it could maybe scratch that itch. The art is fantastic and reminds me of legacy MtG art. Anybody here play?

I watched a few overview vids, but I'm curious how the actual gameplay goes.

For someone who plays mostly EDH, are there any similarities?

Is it usually a 2 player match?
How long are the matches usually?

Is it as much of a money pit as MtG?

Convinced a few of my MtG friends to give it a shot based off of the art alone. Just need an idea of what I'm up against in terms of learning curve.

It's fun, the art is generally great. Matches seem to go like 20+ minutes depending on what you're doing. There's some pretty expensive cards, but with the rarity card limits for deckbuilding a lot of the time you only need one or two copies of a card.

wow 20 minutes is nothing.

I'm so used to battlecruiser magic where the norm is like a grindy two-hour game.

how big is a standard deck?

I was thinking about just finding like some bulk on fb marketplace (surprisingly, it's out there) and cobbling something together. Unless they make precons, haven't looked into it really.

I don't get it--is this just another Sorcery shill? You are the pig that is keeping MTG slop

This is your example of "generally great" art? This looks like a poorly drawn illustration from an old Christian picture book.

Quinton Hoover was an OG mtg artist, this is just his style.

There are precons for Gothic and Beta, get the Gothic ones. Necromancer is a top tier Avatar. Decks are 60 spells, 30 lands and 10 collection(sideboard). The Ian Miller cards are by far my favorite art.
