My name is Travis (some folks call me Woody)and I have been in and out of Magic: The Gathering...admittedly much more out than in...since around Ice Age. My first real stint playing the game with any regularity started around the Mercadian Masques block and I played up through Champions of Kamigawa. During that time I was primarily a standard player (or Type 2 as it was called in those days) and eventually left the game as I just got burned out on it. Sold all my cards, walked away and stayed away for quite a few years up until fairly recently. I got back in around the time that Shadows Over Innistrad came out and decided that I would go with Modern this time around. Lately though I've really found myself much more drawn to the collecting side of Magic. I've started slowly picking up sealed booster boxes and I'm also starting a graded collection of Alpha and Beta cards. Both of those sets are a little before my time but I do remember having tons of revised and unlimited cards and there's some serious nostalgia any time I see a Keldon Warlord or Craw Wurm as those were some of the very first cards I remember ever having!
I also recently started up a YouTube channel exploring the many different aspects of my passion for this great game. i really look forward to getting to know some of you folks on this forum and participating in the community! See you all around!
In case anyone is interested, here's a link to my YouTube channel
