Magic the Gathering M11 Core Set
by Lynn Little on Aug.03, 2010, under M:TG
I have to admit that I haven’t played Magic the Gathering in a very long time. In fact I have sold a lot of our Magic the Gathering collection. The collectible card game was just too much to keep up with when I went back to school. Having a full-time job and full-time school work just didn’t leave much room to learn new rules that were released with each new set.
When M10 was released, I bought a pre-constructed deck that came with an unopened booster pack. Inside that booster pack was a Baneslayer Angel that I later sold on eBay for $30. Needless to say, my interest in new Magic the Gathering cards was renewed. I bought more M10 but never pulled another Baneslayer Angel. I did buy a few packs of the next set but didn’t enjoy it as much as the core set.
So I’ve learned that I really do like the MTG core sets much better than the expansions. The expansions seem to always have these funky rules that I don’t care to comprehend. The core sets seem to stick as close as possible to the basic rules. Also with M11 I have more chances to pull another cool rare card that hopefully bring me big bucks to pay for even more cards.

If you, at any point, would like to, I just bought a new ‘side game’ of Magic called Archenemy. Essentially it’s a multi-on-one game where one person plays the Archenemy whom the rest of the players try to defeat. The other players are all on the same side and use the same turn. It looks really cool, and the Archenemy gets oversided “Scheme” cards that are played each of his/her turn. I can tell you (you all) more if you’re interested.
