Magic: The Gathering

In Magic: The Gathering, the radius of the corners of a standard card is typically 1/8 inch or approximately 3.2 mm. This rounding gives the cards their characteristic shape, making them easier to shuffle and handle. This dimension is consistent across most trading card games to maintain compatibility with card sleeves and storage solutions.

The schedule of a meeting typically includes the date, time, duration, location (or virtual link), and agenda items to be discussed.

If you need a specific meeting schedule, please provide more details.

In Magic 2015, one of the best starter decks is the "Red Deck Wins," which focuses on aggressive, low-cost creatures and direct damage spells. This deck allows players to deal damage quickly and efficiently, often overwhelming opponents before they can establish a defense. Its straightforward strategy makes it accessible for beginners while still being competitive. Other notable decks include "Green Ramp" and "Blue Control," but the Red Deck's speed and simplicity typically make it a top choice for new players.

In Magic: The Gathering, card effects can be categorized into several types, including creature abilities (like flying or trample), spells (instants and sorceries), enchantments, artifacts, and planeswalker abilities. Effects may modify attributes (like power and toughness), create tokens, draw cards, or deal damage. They can also involve interactions like counters, life gain, or card exile. Each card can have multiple unique effects, often influenced by its color and type, creating a vast array of interactions in gameplay.

In Magic: The Gathering, you can equip a creature during your main phase when the stack is empty and you have priority. This can be done as long as you control the equipment and the creature you want to equip it to. Additionally, you can equip a creature during your combat phase if you have the necessary mana available. However, equipping is not a spell; it does not use the stack and can be done at any time you have priority, as long as the conditions are met.

Yes, you can summon an artifact creature and a normal artifact in the same turn, provided you have the necessary mana and card availability. Artifact creatures count as both artifacts and creatures, so they can be played alongside other artifacts. Just ensure you adhere to any specific restrictions or conditions outlined by the cards you are using.

Yes, Wilco sells Magic: The Gathering (MTG) products, including booster packs, decks, and accessories. They often carry a selection of both new and popular sets, as well as singles for collectors and players.

In Magic: The Gathering, planeswalker cards can be obtained through various means, including booster packs, which are sold in stores or through online retailers, and by purchasing specific products like planeswalker decks or bundles. Additionally, planeswalker cards can be found in certain sets or expansions, and players can trade with others to acquire them. Some digital formats also offer ways to earn or purchase planeswalker cards.

Cycling is a card mechanic in Magic: The Gathering that allows players to pay a specific cost to discard a card from their hand and draw a new card. This ability provides additional card selection and helps players maintain a steady flow of resources. Cards with cycling typically have the keyword "Cycling" followed by a cost, such as "Cycling 2," indicating that the player can pay that cost to activate the ability. Cycling can be particularly useful in decks that want to thin their card pool or trigger specific effects from discarding cards.

Magic: The Gathering was created by mathematician Richard Garfield and published by Wizards of the Coast in 1993. The game was initially developed as a way to play a card game while waiting for a scheduled game of Dungeons & Dragons. It combined elements of strategy, fantasy, and collectible cards, allowing players to build their own decks and compete against each other. The game's innovative mechanics and gameplay quickly gained popularity, leading to its status as a cornerstone of the trading card game genre.

In Magic: The Gathering, there isn't a card that makes a specific creature completely invincible, as all creatures can be affected by certain game mechanics or effects. However, cards like "Teferi's Protection" can phase out all permanents you control, effectively making them invulnerable until your next turn. Additionally, cards that grant indestructible, such as "Darksteel Myr" or "Avacyn, Angel of Hope," can make creatures exceptionally resilient to many forms of removal.

It would be almost impossible to "guess" which card from the test Set was created first. I do remember reading somewhere that the original art for the card Heal was Spock and the Dwarven warriors card were the Dwarves from Snow White.

Alpha was the first official printed set and as Air Elemental was the first card of that set technically that would be the first card.

There are two things you might see in magic which are related: lifelink and "When this creature deals damage, you gain that much life." They both do exactly the same thing, with one difference. A creature can only have lifelink once. Lets say you have a creature with lifelink and you put the enchantment "lifelink" on it. Nothing happens. However, if you attach an enchantment that says, "When this creature deals damage, you gain that much life", then you'll gain life from the creature's lifelink AND the enchantment effect.

As far as figuring out how much life you gain: your creature deals damage equal to it's power. If your killing a 1/1 with a 10/10, you still do 10 damage, and gain 10 life. If your killing a player who has 1 life, you still gain life equal to your creature's power. If the damage is prevented, then you don't gain life. If your creature has double strike, picture it as two distinct strikes. The first one deals damage, and if it doesn't kill the creature, then your second one hits. In other words, if you have a 10/10 with double strike and lifelink being blocked by a 1/1, you gain 10 life, not 20, because the second strike never deals damage.

A creature is a permanent that can (usually, but not always) attack or defend against attacks from other creatures. Underneath the picture there will be a short description of what exactly that card is, and it should say whether its a creature or not.

You can also usually identify a creature card by looking at the lower right corner. Two numbers separated by a slash (such as: 6/6 or 12/7) will indicate a creature.

No, all that is required is good reading comprehension skills

Profesional tournaments however may be age restricted, but that has nothing to do with playing for fun with friends or at home.

The box/packs do say '13+' this is likely do to a few things; the aforementioned reading comprehension level, but also the arithmetic involved would make it less enjoyable for younger audiences. It should also be mentioned that there is a darker aspect to the 'flavor' of the game that might not be suitable for some audiences.

Wal-mart, target, and k-marts all sell MTG booster packs. Most comic and table top game stores will sell magic booster packs, singles, and limited run products.

The defending player declares two creatures to block one attacker. The attacking player then orders the blockers, this decides which is damaged first, before the damage is then dealt.

So a 3/3 and a 4/4 block an attacking 4/7. The attacking player orders the blockers, he can put the 3/3 first, 4/4 second. When damage is dealt, it will deal 3 damage to the first ('lethal damage'), and 1 to the second, and receive 7 damage in return. The 3/3 and the 4/7 will therefore be destroyed.

Target and Wal-mart are good stores to find standard MTG packs most places. Most comic and table-top games shops will sale singles and packs, the best way to find a store is to simply google 'MTG NYC'.

Rampage is a triggered ability on creatures and is written as Rampage followed by a number (E.g. Rampage 2).

When a creature with rampage is blocked it, gets +X/+X until the end of turn for each creature that blocked it beyond the first one, where X is the value written after rampage.

E.g. If a creature with Rampage 2 was blocked by a single creature, it would gain no bonus to its power and toughness; if it was blocked by two creatures it would get +2/+2 until end of turn; if it was blocked by three creatures it would get +4/+4 until end of turn, etc.

At the beginning of the game each player draws 7 cards

Well,some time you could rehab mall in Hawally, just in Thursday and Friday.

Deathtouch is a static ability, like trample or flying, that reads, "When this creature deals damage to another creature, destroy the creature that was dealt damage."

For example, if you have a 1/1 creature with deathtouch blocking an 8/8 creature, then your creature will deal 1 damage to the attacking creature, and vice versa. Your creature will die because it was dealt enough damage to kill it, but your opponent's creature will die as well. This ability also works when you are attacking or using an ability that deals damage to a creature, such as Pestilence Demon.
