How To Win Magic The Gathering Game
So you want to learn building a Magic the Gathering deck? I am going to teach you step by step about the method of building your first Magic The Gathering deck according to your style of playing. If you are looking for deck examples, go somewhere else, but if you want to know how to create victorious Magic decks, you are in the right place. You can build as many different decks as you want. Let’s now look at how to win a Magic The Gathering Game.
A Magic The Gathering Deck can hold up to 200 cards or as little as 60 cards. By simple mathematics, we know that there are so many ways to build a deck that we can spend the whole life building decks without creating 2 same ones. However, there is only one aim that is to win and not to lose. But how can I win a Magic game?
The first way of course is to damage the other players until his life drops to 0. The second method is to cause the other players library run out of cards. This method is not very common due to the difficulty and the limit card choices which can help achieve this. The third one is to poison the other players. Every player has a poison counter if they are poisoned. If the counter goes above 10, the player dies. This method is even more unrealistic because 10 poison counter is very difficult to get. Each planeswalker has 20 life counters. Creatures have power from 0 to 12, plus some X amount. But when you poison the opponents, you can only increase his counter 1 at a time. Not even 1 spell is able to increase poison counters. This method is not regarded as very practical.
You can pick whichever way you would like to use to defeat your opponents. But the majority of the Magic players out there uses the first method which is to decrease other players’ life to 0. In order to do this, you can try one or more of the followings: 1. attack your opponents directly with spells. You must work your way out in order to achieve this because the creatures on the battlefield can be used to guard the players. And there are limited number of direct attack spells. 2. use your creatures to attack. This is the most common as it gives good results. 3. use spells to limit your opponent so that he can’t cast his spells or attack you. 4. make his library goes out so the player has no cards to draw.
These are the 4 seperate ways. But you can choose a combination of them and work out a tactic to win most efficiently.
