User blog comment:Iona's selector/What Card Games do you play?/@comment-204.83.117.100-20160111070129

Now that I think about it I haven't played very many.

Of course I started with Magic. I played from around *checks wikipedia* Revised (1994) up to 1999 although the last cards I bought would've been from 1997. I loved it but stopped playing because I just wasn't as into it as other players. It's hard to have any fun when all your opponents have $1000 decks that whoop you in three turns.

I played all of three games of YuGiOh back when my bro enherrited a pair of decks. I can't comment much of the game but we had a rule that you had to talk like they did in the show and one of us forgetting to do so was a bonus loss condition. That was super fun.

I also played Ani-Mayhem when it was a thing, continuing to play it with custom-made cards for many, many years later. I mained a Tenchi/El-Hazard deck. Later custom decks included Soul Taker, Slayers, Iczer, X, Jojo, Tales of Eternia, Gundam, Godannar, Fate Staynight, Nanoha, Ikkitousen, Madoka, Psycho Pass, Symphogear... so many. The game's rules were crap but it was an extremely fun and versatile game, especially for the type of player who likes to imagine how things play out. Misaki Van + Ryoohki + Rocket Launcher + Ambulance vs. a weak bugrom basically played out like a drive-by shooting done by a cute little cabbit.

It's not a TCG but it's still a character-driven card game, Red Dragon Inn is a Friday night staple in my group. Loads of fun.

I'm sure I'm forgetting some but meh, close enough. I've only had a handful of games of Wixoss since I just got my first cards a bit ago.
