Thanks for the Reply! Do boosters from other sets (ravnica, dominaria) still count towards "standard", or are those classed in a different game type? I don't really have a budget, this could be something I get heavy into, or something I barely use. It will depend how much fun I'm having with it!
For the sake of argument, If I had $200 to spend on cards today how would you break it down!
So a friend and I are thinking about getting into MTG as a casual winter hobby, but we have very little idea what we're doing. We've both played the game before with friends, but neither of us own cards. What is the best way to get into the game while remaining relatively current. Should I buy the Core 2019 bundle that comes with 10 packs and the required accessories? If we both got one of these, would we be able to play effectively? Would it be better to buy boosters from other sets?
Essentially looking for recommendations on how you would go about buying MTG cards as a brand new player. I don't want to just buy individual cards, as I find part of the fun will be opening packs. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
I've done a fair bit of research into the seasons, but I still don't fully understand how it all works! A link to a better resource would also be nice!
