MAGIC THE GATHERING Sun, Feb 26 (1pm @ Arby’s) – “Two-Headed Giant”
Both teams start at 30 life and each team shares a turn. You don't need to worry about
sharing your cards though, as all four players have their own separate decks. You'll draw
from your own library and tap your own lands to pay for spells, just as in a regular Magic
game, but with all the fun of sharing that experience with someone who wants you to win
just as much as you do! A great format to help new players learn the game, because you
can talk with your teammate, give advice about what cards to play, and strategize together
for the best way to defeat the opposing team.
Cost is $3 and includes prizes! Bring extra for food & drink.
Next Month... STAR TREK TACTICS HEROCLIX TOURNEY!
