I've found a local store to play events at but still don't have people to chat with about Magic. I've been playing MTG for five years now (Theros block) but haven't dabbled with constructed until recently. I was always intimidated by it regrettably.
I'm looking to find some friends on here, if I can, and just want to talk about the game, deck building, strategy etc.
You'd be surprised at how hard it can be! Many Magic players in person just want to leave immediately after their matches are up and people on MTGO are hardly ever willing to talk. I've played a LOT of MTGO (which honestly didn't help much with remembering abilities since it does a lot automatically) but a lot less in person.
Also is Cockatrice talked about on here or is that not allowed? I play paper Magic and have quite a few cards and I have thousands upon thousands of cards on MTGO so I do spend money on the game and prefer paper firstly, then MTGO and then any other way to play Magic in that order.
The reason I mention Cockatrice is because I use MTGO to build paper decks since it's cheaper. But certain decks get wrecked and I end up spending hundreds of dollars to find that out
welcome to the forums, hopefully you enjoy your time here. Our standard and modern sections have active discussions on topics related to those formats, such as health of the metagame, banlist, viable decks and what not. Many of the users in those areas will be more than helpful with any questions you may have about those formats.
as linked to previously, there is a section for Magic software. There's also a section in Magic general for deckbuilding/playtest groups if you wish to make a post looking for a group in your area

What constructed format do you play ? This forum has good activity in some sections but not much in others, unfortunately.

I'm playing Standard constructed. I like your deck signature ha.
Modern is something I'd like to aspire to a few years down the road but Standard is my focus now
Do you mainly play paper or do you also play MTGO, Arena and/or Cockatrice? @italofoca

Ohh, sorry. Nobody seemed to want to chat on the 3rd party board
Off to Standard I go!
