I played a little when it first came out, but now the dang thing won’t accept my username/pass. I don’t know why, but I don’t really want to buy online “cards” to play with so I doubt I’ll be back. :dubious:

I play, but I don’t know if you’ll want me in your clan, as I absolutely despise the current cycle and refuse to play with it. I’m still running an Onslaught-based green/white power deck with zero artifacts, and I quit playing the tourneys months ago. If you want somebody for the occasional round of casual play, though…you know what my username’ll be. 🙂

I play from time to time, but I don’t and can’t buy cards. I’ll look you out.

I used to play. Back in the Apprentice32 days. In fact, that’s where the E in my username comes from. E-League. I’m out since Onslaught, though. Someone lifted about 400 bucks in cards at a prerelease. That didn’t hurt. Losing my collection of prerelease cards… that hurt. Used to play in Neutral Ground. Even beat Zvi a few times. (It was fun. His degenerate deck against my White Weenie.)
