Heya! I'm new!

[Gumby]

Hello Everyone! Just introducing myself!

I'm a long time "semi-casual" (Read as: "I suck") Type 1 player. I heard that this IS the T1 BBS and that there is a lot of players from the Upstate/East region hang out here and I wanted to know what the type one meta-game is out side of the store I play at (Ours is very strange it seems from what I am reading so far!) And borrow some tech, so I can actually win a tourny

I work in a gaming shop in Cortland, NY (About A half hour away from both Syracuse and Binghamton, right in the middle) Called Area 51, We've got a Type 1 every Sunday that's been going on for at least 8 years.

Welcome to Type 1 and The Mana Drain.

You should use the introduce yourself sticky in the Basic User Community Forum.  Here in the North-East we have all types of decks.  Our metagame is a healthy one that is always evolving.  At some of the bigger tournaments you can expect everything.  Right now i suspect there will be an absurd amount of fish.

Welcome to TMD. As you'll learn, we're a community of high standards and good deckbuilding. Before you post a lot, you may want to read Dr. Sylvan's posting FAQ to avoid getting reprimanded or having threads closed.

If you're looking to enter T1 tourneys, a long list of the current hot decks complete with decklists can be found here.
Additionally, for information on matchups and how to play the decks and such, you may want to glance through the Type 1 Forum, which is exclusively for the Full Members and Vintage Adepts.

Welcome to TMD!
