I like winning with jank. Unburial Rites ----->Stormtide Leviathon when opponennt has fifteen creatures and me at one life and i come back and win because he couldn't do anything.
I REALLY like when the above happens and my opponent calls me and my deck ghey and pick ups and drops out the tournament
I like to win on turn 1 with a combo deck.
I like to win on turn 20 with my control decks grinding my opponent until he sees he cannot do a thing and wait for my win con.
I like to burn my opponent to the face with burn decks.
I like to play some kind of combo-ish decks like Survival of the Fittest.
I like the competition and variety the game can have.
I like to use Snapcaster, Bob, Tarmogoyf, Stoneforge, Geist, JTMS in most of my decks
I like to beat opponent down early game with Tarmogoyf.
I like to play with pimp, foil cards.
I like to use small interactions (Stoneforge + Batterskull)
I like to play many variety of formats
I like to play midrange, aggro decks the most.
I like to kick a Rite of Replication on Reaper King while I have Doubling Season, Parralel Lives and Mirror Gallery out.
I like to Fork, Reverberate, Chandra the Firebrand -2 and Flashback Increasing Vengeance a Warp World, only to follow up with Scrambleverse.
I like to play a Primordial Hydra while having Doubling Season and a few Corpsejack Menace on the field.
I like to toss fifty tokens to Thromok, only to Fling it to my opponent right afterwards.
Yeah...

My Commander decks:
Chandra, Torch of Defiance - Oops! All Chandras.
Prime Speaker Zegana - Draw for Power.
Pir & Toothy - Counterpalooza.
Arcades, the Strategist - Another Brick in the Wall.
Zacama, Primal Calamity - Calamity of Double Mana.
Edgar Markov - Vampires Don't Die.
Child of Alara - Dreamcrusher.
I like drafting of all sorts, even Zen-Zen-Zen limited.
I like seeing my cards. I enjoy seeing more cards than my opponent because I like to have options. I like to be able to play a one-of and know I will see it because of how my deck is built.
As an extension of that, I like toolbox strategies (Birthing Pod, Chord of Calling, Survival of the Fittest, Fauna Shaman, Natural Order)
I like value. Thragtusk is my buddy, Rakdos Cackler is stupid.
I like green, blue, white, and red.
I like Turtles.
I like designing cards.
I like competition and a competitive atmosphere, but not when its at my EDH table.
I love playing the game, too, but the "entry" fee for being competitive in Standard has been alarming to me for a long time...it prevents me from playing as much Magic as I'd like to.
I like playing as many colours as I can possibly cram into a deck, regardless of whether this is advantageous or not and make plays that make the game interesting even if it isn't the best play.
I've been known to draft 5-colour Warp World decks and to have turn ones that involve Forest, Mox Emerald, Channel, Omen Machine. This is all in cube of course.

Those who fear the darkness have never seen what the light can do.
For me, Limited > Constructed. I enjoy opening a stack of sealed boosters or cherry-picking cards from packs that get passed to me during a draft and trying to craft a coherent deck from that random pile of cards. Everybody at the table is building decks from the same restricted pool of cards, so victory comes down to luck and skill -- not budget. I enjoy cube drafting most of all.
But when I do play constructed decks, I like to play a well-matched set of Duel Decks with a friend. Izzet vs. Golgari FTW.
I've found Limited to be more satisfying than Constructed sometimes. It's one of the few times I get to play competitive against new people and try and change my card evaluation choices. Also, much less of an investment...
I like enter the battlefield triggers, and exit the battlefield triggers.
I like the untap abilities.
I like when Legacy/Vintage games last longer than 3-5 turns. c:
I like preventing my opponent from playing Magic. Whether I'm creating a hard-lock like Bottled Cloister with Ensnaring Bridge in play, abusing tempo to the point where I've got 10 damage on board while they're still trying to cast cmc2 cards because I've been casting Sinkhole and activating Wateland while beating them down with super efficient creatures, or just killing my opponent on turn 1 with some combo. I'm only happy if my opponent is unhappy.
I like picking one creature and making a deck around it. I think of that one creature as a trusted ally that can bail me put of a tight jam.
I like removing massive threats with a flick of my wrists.
I like dropping my 'own' massive threats and watching the opponent squirm.
I love ramping. Having so much more mana than my opponent really makes me feel like a powerful mage.
Most of all, I love making unique decks of my own design.

I like the acting of shuffling. I'm very compulsive about my own shuffling and always feel the need to get that perfect riffle or perfect cut before I present my deck.
I love combo decks. Specifically combo decks that go big, or play solitaire. My deck is sweet, why would I care to see your deck if I can win turn 1?
I love long, grindy durdle decks. Going to Time and having to seal the deal within a few turns is always a nice challenge. Gets the adrenaline flowing and puts you in a specific mindset.
So basically anything that wins on turn 1, or past turn 15, I really enjoy.
I love utility lands. Mana is overrated.
I love to draw. I'm not talking about fetching, or ramping, or anything else. I'm talking about that sweet, sweet moment when you're allowed to put that top card from your library into your hand. Cards like Sphinx's Revelation make me feel all warm and fuzzy because they allow several draws into your hand at your own say, and gain your life which proceeds to grind the game more (aforementioned statement).
I like to play control, combo or tempo decks mostly. My early years of playing this game when I was like 10-13 were either playing RDW or Affinity when it was in standard, and I played that die roll format until it drove me to quit for about a decade. Kamigawa block pretty much sealed the deal when I opened a booster pack and hated every single card in it.
When I came back I was already basically allergic to all-in aggressive strategies. I like tempo decks though, a mix of permission and threats.
Still, I don't mind playing Naya/Bant aggro or midrange when I can use stuff like Knight of the Reliquary and such to get lots of interactions. And I still enjoy playing RDW because it is deceptively complicated to get in their alot of the time.

I like the keyword "may" - It's possibly one of the best words to have on your card.
