In other news, this is not correct:

I never got into card games
i was always at uuaas house playing smash while they played yugioh i was like man...u guys r ghey.
I just hate games where being good is entirely dependent on how much you can spend on it.
(bear in mind I'm talking mainly about magic here)

This is a missconception that bugs the **** out of me, because it discourages a lot of people from picking up a really amazing game and it just isn't true. While no one will argue that there is a financial barrier to playing the game, there is a HUGE amount of skill involved at winning at magic once you get beyond really beginner-level play.

I can't comment on yu-gi-oh since I've never played it - though I've heard from a number of sources that it's both more expensive to play and less skill-intensive, so you may have me there. Mtg is off the chain, though.

And WoW still sucks my c0ck.

I have to agree with Pritch here. You'd be surprised how ridiculously well you can do with a small investment and some studying to find a good deck and how to play it.

I play(ed) a Worldgorger Dragon combo deck for T1, and could get the combo in 1-3 turns nearly every game for the kill. Total deck cost: $50 if buying singles. I could arguably make it "better" by changing it to blue/black with counters instead of all black with Dragon/Laquatus as my kill, plus adding pieces of power, but oddly enough, I've spent quite a lot of time playing with a proxied version of the "full power" deck, and it wasn't half as consistent as the cheap version I made. :D

Point being; it can be cheap, but a lot of the fun for most people comes in the randomness too. '

Things like drafts are a blast too, and are a great test of your on-the-fly deckmaking/statistical choice making, and general knowledge regarding the game.
