    Well it's an awful lot of fun once you get into it, it can be a bit expensive tho if you get hooked on trying to get good cards, although i don't regret any penny i've spent on it so far. The best way to get into it is to get someone in waterford to show you how to play with a beginners deck and before long you'll be playing more advanced decks, entering competitions and enjoying the game an awful lot more :)

    Yeah theres only one or two cards i want from 8th edition and its not worth buying the boosters when there's such little chance of getting them. Im saving up to buy fifth dawn boosters at the moment.

    Ive decided never to buy cards again (other then the old editions when people are selling them. Virgin on Henry street in Dublin had a MASSIVE sale, all magic cards dirt cheap, and i missed it:( )

    Personally, if I were you I'd start trying to play online. You can download apprentice and/or netdraft pretty easily. You can use any card ever printed (excluding the banned and/or restricted ones of course and only in the right format). You can join #mtgjudge on efnet in IRC and ask for specific rules.

    This way, you can play the game for a while and find out if you like it, without having to spend a penny (excluding your phone/dsl bill of course).

    Enjoy :D

    I'd advise downloading the official online game and using the free starter theme deck games to learn it- it's much easier to get the hang of something if you're doing it rather than someone telling you what you can and cannot do- it's how I picked up the game at the end of last summer.
    Our local virgin in Belfast had a sale a few weeks ago, oonslaught tourney packs for 50p and core starters for 50p as well as loads of 20p OTJ and OLS boosters- of course I didn't know about this until they were sold out coz all the little kids told their mates- *sigh*
