I don't like it. Did you run it by some parents by any chance? I think some might like it, it sounds like kids are running the store. Plus the use of Internet slang and "God" might turn off a few people.
Plus in terms of "cool factor" to those it actually matters to, it's NOT.
"OMG" sounds at least 5 years behind the times.
And temember the name of a store is not going to MAKE people come to your store, but it can certainly make some people NOT want to come. You really can never afford to give away business.
When you get down to your short list, you might want to go someplace where they have Yu-gi-oh moms (or a message board for Yu-gi-oh parents) and ask them what store name would most appeal to them to take their kid to.
I think the Magic players in general, will find you, and don't really care what the name is, but a HUGE cash source is Yu-gi-oh, and for that, you need the parents to be interested in taking their kids there.
At my friend's store, Magic and teen/college level gaming was what he loved, but Yu-gi-oh parents really helped to pay the bills.
Really, Magic is a Mind Sport... as are other CCGs. It appeals to the parents
And the name immediately evokes MtG as well, so people will recognize it as an MtG place.

Something with Mindsports.I just like the idea of marketing it as something positive rather than just fun & games. It is a sport, and its about time Magic was treated as a mind sport.

Good luck with the store though.
