Magic: The Gathering is a game where players craft their own decks from tens of thousands of available cards and use decks to fight other players in games of strategy, guile, and tactics. Build your deck around a theme (like zombies, Dragons, Vampires, or Elves) or build a deck to be as streamlined and competitive as possible to challenge your opponents and have a chance at a club tournament championship! MTG Club does not require cards to join, though, as there are several club decks available for new players (or old players looking for something different). New players can also look forward to learning the game from scratch -- no prior knowledge is required! This trimester's club will bring a club tournament, with a prize for the winners! Dozens of students have gone from zero to hero in the past -- will you be the next? Important: This club meets on THURSDAYS only.
