Magic: The Gathering

So, anyone of you guys plays the best trading card in like, existance? I just bought a deck, Selesnya Conclave. Realllly fun. Its something a bit like Yu Gi Oh, but waaaay more fun and complicated.

No, Yamigawa was like yu gi oh, and the Yamigawa series sucked ass.
I stopped after they got bought out by hasbro. Whos currently dumbing down the game (seriously, who the heck puts help text for enchant creatures?).
Ill probably buy a few boosters from time to time.
I started back in apocalypse (I own 2 spirit mongers) and a little while before I think, the Merq Masks.

I dont play much Magic, I mean, I started playing it, like...a month ago, or something like that. But I do know that Masks and Apocalypse are OLD.

Yes so you can see how much of an insult it is to me and a lot of other players how they suddenly yu-gi-oh-fy it.
And gear it towards younger children.

I used to play. A LOOOOOONG time ago. I think I might still have my decks, but I have since forgotten all the rules, and have no interest in re-learning.

Sell your cards, they sell for hundreds, well the really old ones that is.

I'm curious about it but...

1) No idea where to start.
2) No idea who to play against. (I don't say duel since YuGayOh screwed that particular word up...)

EDIT: Crap, I said it.
