So we have our own magic group, of us four pals, and we play our modest games of magic trying to get back into the game. When timespiral comes out, most of us plan on buying a lot of new cards, so we should all be on the same page (except matt, he a n00b). I vote we play two headed giant, and I personally am in the process of my multi-player deck.
Two headed giant, basically, is 4 players with two teams of two sitting on opposite ends of the tables. How it works is, each team is like one giant, with two heads. So each team shares a life total of 40, and each team only takes one turn, not one for each player. There is basically just a team turn where both players go through their phases and share them, attacking together and untapping together and so forth. But the only things you share are strats and health, not necessarily permanents and such.
I think this format is sick. It seems so awesome in my opinion. The games would end up really interesting if one player played control on a team and the other played burn or aggro. It would also be interesting if every player just had a deck full of creatures, and it would be a crazy race with critters droppin left and right.
So, IM in. Im making a blue green aggro deck. Lots of creatures and enchantments. The deck is stronger the more opponents there are, and I only need to go to collectors edge one of these days and buy a few more cards.
