Magic the Gathering: What colors do you tend to play?

Title says it all what colors do you tent to play?
Personally my favorite is Black/Blue. Black always has high damage out put, not to mention it satisfies my inner sadist.  Blue, put simpally so you don't cast anything I don't want you to. 
My second favorite has got to be Black/Green. Affinity for artifacts and sliver decks are always favorites as well for obvious reasons.

I have been tempted to play online but I just enjoy having the physical artwork too much. I mean WotC employees a lot of REALLY fucking talented artists.
I mostly just play standard or attack to the left if there are more than just two people. The occasional two headed giant can be fun too, I just don't have that much experience. I also used to play in draft tournaments they hold every Friday at the local gaming store. I'm really liking what I have seen of the new set, so perhaps I'll start doing that again.

thats cool, the artwork of the cards is pretty sweet, i dont really take the time to really look at them. i originally started with paper magic but i only have a few irl friends who actually play and it became rarer and rarer that we actually got together and played. i was spending too much money on something that i never got to use. that's why i converted to magic online. unfortunately cards are usually around the same price or in some cases even more expensive than the "actual card" but you never have to shuffle and 4 copies of a card online can go into 1000s of different decks, no more shuffling through decks for cards to put in a new deck, then forgetting you moved it lol.
drafting is a lot of fun too, another advantage of online is the ability to play and test different ideas very quickly at any time of day and you can do drafts or sealed whenever you want. if you decide to do a theros booster draft send me a message i have plenty of experience and can give you some good tips!

Mono-black is pretty evil, especially with the re-intro of poison counters a while back. Got whomped a couple of times...

I was actually surprised to see people still playing a few weeks ago on campus. I used to frequent black/green or red/green. It is pretty interesting to see how much the game has really changed since I last played.

I haven't played magic since like the mid 90s.. actually didn't know it was still around. Was pissed at myself when I gave away my collection and ended up realizing I had given away a few thousand a few years later. Had multiple 'epic' old school cards like alpha Black Lotus'.. Shivan Dragon alpha, Mox Rubies and Ancestral Recall and whatnot. I didn't think they would ever actually be worth something let alone hundreds of dollars per card.
I used to play black/blue or black/green the most if I remember

I still play quite a bit. I geuss I'm lucky i still know a lot of people who are as into it as I am :P
Currently I play a savage mono-green beast deck built around "Gurruk Primal Hunter" and recently just added a few cards from theros like "Nylea, God of the Hunt" and "Nylea's Disciple", as well as a few enchantment creatures like "Nylea's Emissary" and "Leafcrown Dryad". The most damage I've ever dealt in one turn with this 'beast' deck (pun intended ) was 168 (with trample, of course).
Before i went full out mono-green, I used to use a green black gulgari deck, and a vicious poison counter deck (that I haven't seen for quite some time, I sadly misplaced it a while ago :/)
The first deck i ever played well with was a white-blue flying deck. God, that one pissed people off ;P

never really played seriously, thought about getting it for computer, but thought buying digital cards is a scam. But if I played It would be Red/White or just Red. IDK but sounds cool

Usually Black/Blue or Black/White but since I started EDH recently all colors have shown their beauty on the battlefield.
The real question is what style do you play? Me, Standard, Modern and EDH/Commander!

I've got a pretty sick blue mill deck.
I've also got a mono green "boomerang" deck. I use http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=249687 to just keep slinging Acidic Slimes, Pathfinders, and a bunch of other stuff. Once I get a few of these Primadoxes out, it starts rolling pretty hard.
In EDH, I've got a blue/white deck with Medomai. It's fucking NASTY.
And last but certainly not least, I run a mono red goblin EDH deck. I use Krenko and it's pretty unstoppable. I think I've only lost once with it.

I have the game for android, supposedly some cards are unlocked, I have no clue how to put a deck together, but I tried with prebuilt and they suck, I'm a good deck builder, especially with money.

I have a Green/White/Black populate deck. I haven't really put much work into strengthening it, but it's pretty fucking solid.
My other deck is a White/Red Boros deck.
