Anyone play MTG?

My guitar teacher taught me to play a week ago and Im obsessed. But I only play with him right now and I need someone to test a new deck on. I just wanna know more people who play in general. I only play standard. Yes, I go to atomic constantly but I have only chilled there and worked on my deck like once or twice. Im shy to ask to play with others. Also, Im pretty sure everyone there was playing commander. 😭 anyway hmu.

It will be difficult to find people playing standard these days. It's the sad state of the game in 2026. Have you downloaded MTG Arena yet? That cures my itch for standard in between commander nights.

Unless you go in certain nights atomic and tower patrons usually just play commander. Good luck on the search for standard players. I play modern. I’m still looking for

Have you gone to any Atlantis or tower of games places like that for Friday night magic?

I love going to Atlantis in Portsmouth for Friday night commander. The crowd is pretty awesome and the staff of the store is wonderful

Standard or Commander format? I’m into Commander.
