I recently got back into the game of Magic The Gathering one of the most interesting complex card trading games available. This game was big back when I was in High School and seems to have a growing trend here in the Saint John area.

GameZilla in Saint John has Friday Night Magic every Friday and offer lessons to teach people to play. They also do drafts and play a variety of formats on Saturdays and Sundays.

What is Magic?

In the Magic game, you play the role of a planeswalker—a powerful wizard who fights other planeswalkers for glory, knowledge, and conquest. Your deck of cards represents all the weapons in your arsenal. It contains the spells you know and the creatures you can summon to fight for you.

This year if you followed me on Twitter me and my good friend Chris attended MTG Provincials placing 25th and 26th, not bad for the both us just starting out again.

So because of my interest, my own children are demonstrating an interest.  So I’m going to try to help them to learn, but my youngest Kathleen just couldn’t wait to get ahead of everyone else.
