Magic: The Gathering (MTG) and Gashapon

What are your collections? My boyfriend and I are into Magic: The Gathering (one of the popular trading card games) and Gashapon (anime figurines). These are just some of the cool stuff we’re collecting. While others are into Gundam models, challenge coins or post cards, we are addicted to booster hopping, or the so-called random booster trips. We pick random MTG packs from different magic shop we visit. Sometimes we get the best cards, sometimes the worst. But it’s really worth the fun. It’s like paying “excitement” of opening random packs. The hottest card that we have on-hand right now is Chandra, the Firebrand. I got one last M12 prerelease. I might try the Chandra Control deck so I need three more. MTG seller, anyone?

M12: Gonna Play Magic Again!

I’ve got lots of goodies from New Phyrexia prereleases and I’m hoping to get more this coming M12 Prerelease. My boyfriend and I just bought tickets and preordered M12 box at Neutral Grounds, Greenhills.

So excited to open booster packs!

I’m so excited to play magic again. The last time I played was FNM right afters NPH’s PR. How long has it been? Even if I wanted to play MTGO, I don’t know how it works so I have to content myself with actual games. I really need some play tests now especially that Nationals is fast approaching. Not that I’m playing on that event, I’m into Philippine Open only.

MTG is not a simple TCG. It’s a mind game. My boyfriend taught me how to play and I’d love to teach MTG to our future kids, too. :)

Maybe we could start with easy online educational games. Finding affordable and interesting ones is not an issue here since The Source sells kids games and I’m good with online shopping.

New Phyrexia was a Blast!

Friday Night Magic and then 3 prereleases… that is what we call – MTG addiction! Haha!

My new NPH cards are awesome! Of course there are crap rares, too but not enough to spoil the fun. Hehe. I just kept playing. New Phyrexia Prerelease report here – MTGirl.

Starbucks and Magic The Gathering ’til Midnight

My new favorite frappe. It used to be vanilla, then Java Chip and now no-caffeine chocolate cream chip. Had two tall servings of it last night. First one was before the MTG Gateway tournament at Ongkeco’s Hobby Shop, second’s right after the last round while waiting for my boyfriend.

The result? Insomnia. Kidding. It actually gave me enough time to update my blogs and deal with direct advertisers. Got tons of emails that need urgent reply. They’re all set for now. Thanks to Starbucks!

As for my FNM/Wed Gateway standing, feel free to visit my MTGirl.info blog.
