Magic the Gathering

Magic the Gathering, also reffered to as MTG, is a skilled and luck based playing card game. While it is similar to Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh it is also very different. MTG has a variety of play stiles that have different rules regarding deck size and of course game rules. A few examples of this are between Commander and Standard play styles. Commander has a larger deck size and a dedicated card that will be on the board from the start of the game. Standard has a smaller deck size and does not have a specific card also known as a Commander hense the name of the game mode.

There are 5 different colors in MTG:

Each color has their own specialties and revolve around a certain playstyle. This gives a player the option to mix colors and be able to play however they want.

There are also a variety of sets which started being released in 1993. Some of my favorites inclide:
