So never play MTG with your partner
« on: July 08, 2011, 07:22:52 PM »
I've been playing MTG 2012 via Steam. Resparked my interest in Magic the Gathering. Last time I played was 1995-1997. Ice ages, Tempest, that era.  

So I went to pick up a free 30 card red starter deck in exchange for my soul personal information.
Showed it to the gf. Apparently she loves dragons. We played two demo games with just the 30 card deck. She beat me. I beat her.

Bought quite a few cards from the 2011 core set today with several ready to play decks. She whoops my ass three times and picks it up pretty fast overall.
Then we open two boosters. She gets a foil. I get a planeswalker (chandra), which she subsequently rips out of my hand and claims as her own when I say it's a mythic rare.

I'm going back to playing on Steam. Which she now also wants to take as her own.
And I'm not allowed to come near any of the sealed decks and boosters we still have left.

I've created a monster. :'(

Life was so much easier when we just played Meet The Goat.
