Magic: The Gathering

Sadly my Target never haves any Magic, but their prices should be normal retail price, ~4$ for a pack, ~12$ for a intro deck, 40$ for a fat pack, ~30$ for premium decks; unless its older, likes slivers. And i know Target sometimes has little 'special deals' like most big name retailers do with tcgs, I've seen two kinds, one is a two deck pack for ~25 or ~15 (it was a while ago, i apologize), usually intro decks, that can be very profitable (some have come with one commander deck and another random intro deck) or a huge waste (Like one intro deck and a 'deck' of basic lands, which is what i got of course :( ). They also have a 'throwback' pack, containing one new set (Scars block usually), and one older set pack (I've seen odyssey all the way to shadowmoor), these usually run at 12$. Hope this helps, and sorry if you live outside of the U.S.

This question is very subjective. it comes down to what you play and what you like to play and what you are comfortable with.AFAIK "Keeper" has never won a major tournament, best placing that I can find is 4th.In Vintage the most consistent decks are Noble Fish/Fish, Tezzeret, Dredge, Affinity, Painters.Dredge has the potential for a firt turn kill and can more consistently win by the third turn, as can Liche's Channel.Legacy: CounterTop, Thopter Depths, Dreadstill, Mono Blue Painter's Stone.

A Planeswalker is someone of a sapient species like dragon or vedalken who can traverse the multiverse in the Magic: The Gathering story. Most stories now revolve around these Planeswalkers as they are certainly more powerful than most other characters simply because of their amassed knowledge of other worlds.

A permanent with shroud cannot be the target of spells or abilities.

For the most part, Phage was a servant of the First of The Cabal, the leader of an evil group of black-magic aligned summoners and sorcerers.

Magic has 5 different colors, each of them has specific characteristics (e.g white is good, green is nature) Black colored cards often represent the evil and dark side spells and creatures. Black characterizing creatures are vampires, demons and zombies among others. In some older cards' illustrations a pentagram would appear, these illustrations have been changed when the card was reprinted. This was to avoid any discussion about relation of Magic with satanism. There is no proof of any relation with satanism as the cards often have only a name that could generate controversy, and never describe anything similar to a satanic ritual, only their effect on the game. Even if the illustrations of black cards often do picture demonic creatures, these are usually extracted from and inspired by folkloric culture, and not satanic books or rituals. In magic, there are more Angels (that are also the most popular and powerful creatures) then Devils (also quite popular). (by TheOmniscient)

That's the 'generic' mana cost, which can be paid with mana of any colour, or simply with plain colourless mana.

So as an example, 'Sun Titan' has 4 W W on the top right corner. That means his 'converted mana cost' is 6, and he requires two of that to be White Mana, the other four can be any mana.

At the beginning of the game Seven.

During the game, you can have a unlimited numbers of cards in hand.

However, during your discard phase (before the end of the turn) if you have more than seven, you must discard as many cards to keep seven (except when a spell (enchantment) or a effect in play authorizes more than seven cards during this phase).

NB: Starting hand sizes can be modified during game variants, like Vanguard.

That depends on if the starter deck is sealed or not.

If it is open, the cards and their condition.

There is no burn card that does the most damage. Many burn cards have X in their casting cost and do X damage where X is extra mana paid and could be (theoretically) any number. Lightning Bolt is the most efficent burn card (R for three damage) magiccards.info is a great source with advanced search parameters to help you find what you are looking for.

Yes, you can have two planeswalkers in play, so long as they do not have the same name or type, otherwise they are subject to the Planeswalker Rule.

If you have two planeswalkers with the same name or type both of them most be discarded.

You can't have two Planeswalkers with the same 'type', meaning you can't have both Ajani Goldmane and Ajani Vengeant in play - while the two cards have different names, both are 'Planeswalker - Ajani', and would both be destroyed because of it.

Adobe CS (much the same as GiMP, except Adobe is not a free download)

Alternativley you can buy a load of commons or land and use an ink eraser or just stick different pictues to the front of the cards. If you have the cards in sleeves the will be easier to use.

NB: It should be noted that proxy cards are not allowed to be used in DCI sanctioned tournaments. There are some tournaments where proxies are allowed. Always check with the tournament co-ordinator or tournament judges before presuming proxies are allowed.

yes.

Precision by Crisdean

A multicoloured spell is considered as being all of these colors.

The Sliver Queen is five cololoured, if it damages you and if you have a circle of protection blue, the damages will be prevented (for 1 mana) But a circle of protection will not protect you against a blue-black spell such as Lobotomy which does not damage a player.

60 cards might weigh about 3.5oz, but you can always take the card to the local post office to weigh card or cards. 1 card could weigh about .058oz. maybe, best to weigh at Post Office though.

There wasn't a first card per se, there was a test set created and used by the developers.

Someone on the original design team would probably be able to tell you one of the inital cards that were created.

The test set were hand drawn art, stuck to playing cards.

A card with Flash can be played at any time that you could play an instant. That means you are able to cast (usually) creature spells in response to a spell or ability, or cast a creature in the opponent's turn.

Lets say you have nothing but 8 mana in play, and you opponent has a 4/4 creature and he is about to attack you and you have nothing to block with, so lets also say you have angel of salvation a 5/5 creature with Flash in your hand what you can do is play him and block, remember to tap your mana.

Some creatures with Flash have an effect that goes on the stack when the creature comes into play. Mystic Snake is one example, you can cast the creature spell in response to a spell, it will resolve, then its counter spell ability will activate, and can counter that initial spell.

All your attackers have to be declared at the same time, before a response is made, and before the opponent declares blockers. You are not forced to make all your monsters attack, but any that you don't declare, have missed their chance to attack that turn.

Yes, they do. They are usually mixed in with the baseball cards and other collectible cards in a display at the end of the row of registers, and also in a section of the toy department. Individually packaged boosters and the occasional fat pack are what you will usually find available.

Then you have one empty hand. In this case the player should have played cards that gave them a few more to work with.

I have no idea why you would want to know this but the monopoly deal

game cards are the same size as a normal deck of cards so if you don't have the monopoly card game just use a normal deck of cards it's the same dimensions
