Hello from Minnesota

Unread post by Diamond Back »

Hello everyone,

I'm pretty new to card collecting, magic and cardistry but I have really been enjoying my time so far. I got into card collecting around 3ish months ago. I was watching mismag's channel and wanted to learn all those tricks but needed an adequate deck. I went to my local magic shop and was surprise to see the vast selections of deck and fell in love with the uniqueness and beauty of cards. I only own 11 decks right now but hoping to expand soon. My favorite deck by far are the Bees deck. I love the simplicity and feel of them. I have the Bee coterie deck on the way :)

Cardistry is a whole 'nother beast that I encounter during my short time of card collecting. After watching a video posted on Reddit of some guy doing awesome cardistry I fell in love. While I enjoy magic, cardistry is my main focus right now. I been practicing card flourishing a lot recently and while I have little to show, it's been a major improvement since day 1.

It is truly awesome meeting other people passionate about cards. Hope to have a collection as grand as some of the members on this board one day!

Thanks for the warm welcoming everyone.

I do not read the comics but I really enjoy the shows and video game. I am excited to see my favorite superhero getting some love and the upcoming Justice League movies.
