my understanding is that it was removed to simplify the game
and make the rules easier for beginners
It forces a certain level of mana management
mana burn was/could be a legitimate tactic and discourages cheap tactics like infinite mana

my straight green deck is all about mana management
I can easily produce 8-10 mana by my 3rd turn
and have creatures with their power/toughness equal to land/mana in play

Cheep?
Theres absolutly nothing cheep about equipping power artifact to my basalt monolith. :wink:

And ya, green mana ramp can be a little rediculous at times but the deck synergy can be hard to pull off some times and blue players will make your life hell.
I mostly only play green in a green/black or whenever I feel like running an elf-ball.

Magic is one of the best table top games out there. I personally have over 35,000 cards and sixteen decks that I play frequently. You can't trip and play magic though, I usually just look at all the cool artwork instead lol.

If anyone is interested, here is a comprehensive guide on OCTGN, for free MTG here: http://www.mtgsalvation.com/forums/magic-fundamentals/magic-software/337138-the-new-official-octgn3-mtg-thread

Unfortunately, while there once was an active chatroom full of players, I cannot seem to find it anywhere. Perhaps we can still benefit from this wonderful software? I'll be on it during the weekends, myself.

OCTGN is a great program though and also runs these games, so it's worth checking out:

7th Sea CCG
A Game of Thrones LCG
A Game of Thrones LCG 2.0
Android:Netrunner
Call of Cthulhu LCG
Cards Against Humanity
Doomtown
Duel Masters
Duel Masters OCG
Dune CCG
Kaijudo
Legend of the Five Rings
Mage Wars
Magic: the Gathering
My Little Pony CCG
Netrunner CCG
Pathfinder Adventure Card Game
Romance of the Nine Empires
Sentinels of the Multiverse
Spycraft CCG
Star Realms
Star Wars: The Card Game
The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game
VS System
Vampire: the Eternal Struggle
Warhammer 40,000 Conquest LCG
Warhammer Invasion LCG

If your interested you should learn how to play it is a really fun game. There is a reason why it is referred to as cardboard crack lol.

Yeah, there's a lot of depth to it.

You start by looking at the pictures, maybe play a few games. Some people get lost in the imaginative aspects. Soon after learning about the different mechanics, people usually start building a few decks; there are SOOOoo many themes out there. Before you know it, your whole life is gone! No money, no job, on the streets giving handjobs for boosters. I think it'd be perfect for you, go.

Been years, Lets just say the last time I played, my black deck with phage the untouchable was the damn near best thing you could play with.

How many handjob's did you have to give before your first booster?

I've been working pole for 2 days now, and nothing to show for it.
