Living or Trading? (The Debate)
If you’re as knowledgeable with the card game community as I am, then odds are you’ve heard of this new format popping up known as a Living Card Game. In short, these games work in expansion sets where you get all the cards of each set in one buy rather then trading and buying pack after pack. The strategy remains the same in each game, but it takes away that whole idea of “the player with the...

First Look: Summoner Wars (I'm Back Baby!!)
Now in the past few weeks, I have been looking for a card game to play that isn’t just the same old Magic style of game play of summoning creatures with Mana, attacking, and lowering opponent’s life points. Now don’t get me wrong, Magic is a great game but its nice to play something new and innovative and I believe I just found something. A friend led me onto this game called Summoner Wars, and...

Manners & Gaming (a four part series): Part Two,...
Last time, we discussed the basic mannerisms used in the setup of any game (mainly in a tournament setting). Today, we will move to the actual flow of game play itself and learn what to and not to do. One thing to keep in mind though, never force any of these “manners”. Anybody will be able to tell if you are trying to fake a nice personality, and that is about as rude as being rude...

How to always win at games!!!
You know what, after a lot of thinking through these blog posts I’ve realized that we’re no strangers to love. We both know the rules right? I’ve been thinking about a full commitment and I’m sure you wouldn’t get this from any other guy. I sit here and write this in order to tell you how I’m feeling, I just hope you understand. I’m never going to give you up, let you down, run around, or desert...

Manners & Gaming (a four part series): Part One,...
In today’s fast paced gaming society, I start to notice more and more that players forget the common mannerisms and become just plain rude in their gaming ventures. If we forget these manners and become rude today then that can distract new players from joining in and therefore the company as a whole collapses just based on the player base. Now gather round and let me tell you about my run in with...

Apples Today Keeps the Boredom Away (Game...
In the early 90’s, the classic Parker Brothers games ruled the family board game night and for the longest time there were no contenders. But then in 1999, out of the blue, a simple card game flew in and took the world by storm. You guessed right, Apples to Apples is the game in mind that is ruling this new trend and is now a household name. But what spurred all of this popularity? Why do we find...

Guest Review: Pokemon TCG Heart Gold/ Soul Silver...
Reviewed by Case aka Metric Inchworm
Check out his other work at http://metric-inchworm.deviantart.com/
Remember when all Pokemon took double damage when hit by its weakness? This all changed when the Diamond and Pearl sets rolled around, giving pokemon set weaknesses, such as +10, +20, or even the rare, but classic, x2 weakness. Later, in the Platinum sets, new Pokemon SP, a new version of...

What if? (Non-TCG Related)
Disclaimer: Something happened to me a few days ago that got me thinking about something and I’ve decided to share it with you all. This thing has absolutely nothing to do with Trading Card Games or Board Games so I though I should write up a disclaimer. Sorry for any inconvenience, hope you enjoy it though.
Its amazing how one little question can rattle your brain for your whole life isn’t it?...

Why do you blog?
Really like this question. Well, blogging gives me a way to express myself about the games I love so much in a way that hopefully most people will enjoy. I also love the English language and writing in general so gaming and writing put into one is something amazing.

Scarier than the Undead
One of the greatest fears in today’s society is Coulrophobia or more commonly known as, the fear of clowns. The masters of horror over at Twilight Creations noticed this and moved to create a seventh expansion to their hit “Zombies!!!” game based on this fear. It was a big risk, there have been no Zombie Clown movies in popular media to my knowledge (yes I do know about It and the Killer Klowns...

Gold & Silver Wrap Up
Good day everyone, I have returned from my week long Hiatus from the blog due to Drumline state finals. If you were wondering we got third at state and it was an awesome final competition. Without further ado, let us wrap up what I started two weeks ago. Now that I have a copy of Pokemon Heart Gold in my hands, its time for a proper review for this excellent game. Don’t worry though, I’ll be...

The Pokemon franchise has always been known for its ability to slap a Pikachu onto anything and have it sell like wildfire. Thus, why wouldn’t they dip their characters into the miniature gaming franchise world to make even more money? With that, the Pokemon Trading Figure Game was a born. The game was based on a base that players spin in order to deal attacks, dodge, or miss. A player wins by...

The hippies defined the sixties, disco ruled the seventies, and the reign of pop controlled the eighties, but what defines the time most of us grew up in; the nineties? If you think about it, the three things listed for the previous generation were fads; widely popular for awhile then suddenly just a boring thing to do; so wouldn’t it make sense that the Pokémon craze would define the nineties? At...
