Magic: The Gathering
Magic: The Gathering - often shortened to MTG or Magic - is a tabletop collectible card game. MTG is published by Wizards of the Coast - which are commonly reffered to as Wizards.
Resources
There are many useful resources. The following list provides a select few of them.
- cardmarket is a trading post for tabletop cards based in europe.
- deckstats.net gives the option to build and analyze MTG(A) decks.
- Magic Judges is a live chat with judges to clarify the rules.
- MTG Desktop Companion is a collection manager for MTG that includes prices, stats and a deck builder, aswell as the option to import and export to most of the used MTG deck formats. It is free and open-source. Its source code can be looked at on their GitHub Page.
Playing Online
There is a fully digital and online version of MTG called Magic: The Gathering Arena - or MTGA for short - that has the same rules as the tabletop variant.
It is also possible to remotely play with tabletop cards. This is most easily done on Spelltable which is an official website by Wizards. For playing Spelltable a webcam is needed to be set up with a bird's eye view over the playing field. An alternative to a normal webcam is DroidCam for Android which is supported by the website itself.
Both Spelltable and MTGA use the same login credentials.
