But I don't think I will play another one again. I will just stick to the casual and bot games...
Why.. Well It is a rich mans game.. Who ever has the most money can buy the most cards and have the better decks. I don't have a lot of cash, So while playing the $5 for the entry fee, and you get a booster pack with that as well (worth $3.49US (as long as you don't come dead last), If you don't place high up in the ladder it seems as though you only tend to lose $1.50 US.
But When you have the people spending a heap of money on the game and getting every card they can, then they play in the tournaments, there is little chance someone like me will come up top who doesn't have that many cards..
Also you need to be free for about 4 hours to play.. and in my time zone, to play 4 hours (10am to 2pm) is a bit of a pain..
So I still only lose $1.50 US you say.. yeah but if I play 3 tournaments I have lost $4.50 (I think) which I could of bought a booster with anyway and been a $1 better off...
Anyway there where 19 people that started in the tournament, at the end I was equal 3rd in points but was ranked 9th overall (with 5th and 8th place missing from the ladder??).. How does that work? FIIN...
The game is still great, I have a lot of fun building decks from the limited cards I got, and playing casual games.. Tournaments though? I can't see the point, or the extra incentive to do so... Maybe in the future? don't know...
