Photos by Katy Broach They don’t put on wizard costumes or dress up as goblins, werewolves, vam pires or angels, but the crowd that gath ers at Crimson Imp Games, Inc. in down town Seneca Falls each Friday night still enters a world of Magic. “Every Friday, face a greater chal lenge,” is the catchphrase of Friday Night Magic, a card game that has grown in popularity in the past several years. It attracts everyone from middle schoolers to college students and even doctors and lawyers. Crimson Imp Games Inc. is one of the closest places to Wayne County to come in and have a “Constructed Stan dard Magic the Gathering” tournament sanctioned by games publisher Wizards of the Coast using DCI rules. (Formally, Duelists’ Convocation International - the game is played all over the world and competitors have to be registered to be in tournaments). About 20 people play each Friday at Crimson Imp, but there are bigger gath erings at similar shops in Syracuse and Rochester. Crimson Imp Games Inc. owner Ballard Shull, better known as Bob, says people of all ages have come to play. “Magic the Gathering” was created by Richard Garfield and introduced in 1993 by Wizards of the Coast. It was created to be a trading card game with a high amount of strategy. In standard con structed Friday Night Magic you have a minimum 60-card deck with the choice of a 15 card sideboard, using only the newest few sets and the latest core set. The Wizards of the Coast website ex plains that “In the Magic game, you play the role of a planeswalker—a powerful wizard who fights other planeswalkers for glory, knowledge, and conquest. Your Ivory Spears of Savannah and her brother Anthony with Crimson Imp Games Shop owners (in center) Josie Morrewll and Ballard ‘‘Bob''Shull deck of cards represents all the weapons in your arsenal. It contains the spells you know and the creatures you can summon to fight for you.” A price for a good deck can range from $50 to $500, depending on your card preference and budget. Players may also begin by spending significantly less on a pre-made starter deck for about $12. In the new 2013 core set which of ficially came out July 13 of this year, Nicol Bolas: Planeswalker makes its sec ond debut in the cycle, as do Planeswalk ers Chandra the Firebrand, Liliana of the Dark Realms, Jace Memory Adept, Garruk Primal Hunter, and Ajani Caller of the Pride. The most valuable non-pro- motional Magic card is the Alpha ver sion of Black Lotus signed by the artist. Collectors have paid $15,000 for lesser versions of the card. There are many dif ferent creature card types in the collec tion. A few are goblins, vampires, were wolves, elves, druids, humans, shamans, demons and angels. Decks can be based around these creature card types and they all have their own individual effect and speed. Twelve-year player, 24-year-old Alex Johnston says that “Not since the time of the gladiators has a games competition been so fierce or its stakes so high. Al beit only a card game, greater men than I have tried and failed at mastering Magic: the Gathering. So I say to you aspiring Planeswalker, good luck, and ‘may the odds be ever in your favor’ “. Crimson Imp Games Inc.’s owner Bob Shull says “Eve been a nerd since 1978 playing games anywhere from Dungeons and Dragons, Role Play, and Magic the Gathering. Magic is a way to relax, socialize, have fun, and for some kids to stay off the street in a controlled safe environment. Some players can find this game addictive if you like to com pete, everyone has a chance at winning and that rushing feeling after winning can hook you straight to Magic.” This game, similar to sports, teaches children how to win and lose more grace fully.
