playing MTG online

Post by Shrykull »

No, not specifically the game "magic online" if that's what you were thinking, but I'm refferring to playing MTG online by any means, apprentice, workstation, whatever. Is there any program besides MTG-online that does things automatically, like when your creature hits your opponent, it takes away that much life, without you having to do it.
I wonder just why all them aren't this way, why not take advantage of what the computer can offer you, and not having to do that stuff yourself? I also don't want people cheating on me either.

It's a hell of a lot easier to program, mainly.

Personally, I really don't care that Apprentice doesn't have all the card art and that I have to do everything myself. All that work equates to it being more like a real M:TG game, rather than one online.

And I pity the sap who pays for Magic Online. They are just a big sucker.

MTG online kinda sucks. There's an alternative called Apprentice, but that isn't very up to date...

Actually, I did some searching. http://www.e-league.com

They seem to have an update for Apprentice up to Onslaught.
