It's possible to buy a "starter deck," but against anyone who has invested money (and time), there's no hope.
Magic is not really a game so much as a psychological weapon deployed on people to extract money from them legally (if not really ethically), IMO.
There's no good need for it either. There's no reason that the game couldn't be made a proper game: Just sell a box with 4 copies of every card ever made (as the limit per deck of a single card is 4) or in expansions. Then it would be ethical.
- kyoton 9y agoThe starter decks are pretty solid actually. I come from a very aggressive magic community (in terms of play style, the people were super friendly), but every so often I was able to out do them. These are players who have dedicated years and plenty of cash to creating their decks and honing their minds for the game. Occasionally, careful planning can be beaten by a good hand. ;)
