Have you guys played commander? is it a good card game?

@waifu I've played a moderate amount. How fun it is depends a lot on how fun the people you're playing with are. A high power or low power table can be very fun, or very unfun, depending on the people. Personally I tend to prefer lower power tables though

@merchantHelios @waifu

I play Commander every weekend. As far as MTG goes its such a paradox.

It is the worst way to get started playing MTG while also being the most marketed towards newer players.

If you’re gonna get into it, I’d highly recommend low power like they are saying (everyone using unmodified precons) or playing a different format on something like MTG Arena first so you can get familiar with game rules and “The Stack”

@Unit @waifu imo mtg isn't hard to learn, even via commander, but the expense to make your own decks beyond precons is a hard sell. My favorite budget deck is still just under 100 bucks
@merchantHelios @Unit @waifu My R/B deck is the cheapest I own out of 34, and its probably less than $50.00

The Infamous Cruelclaw - $1.00
Obosh, the Preypiercer (Companion) - 0.14
Hit the Mother Load - $0.21
Creative Technique - $1.49
Worldfire - $18.24
95 Lands - $??.??

Yes, I will be playing my gimmick deck for the 5th game in the row.

No, I don’t feel like playing any of my other decks
