“I got back into Magic around the release of Magic Origins and had never heard of EDH before, but regularly saw people post 100-card decks with all unique cards in them. I decided to investigate what these decks were about, learned about EDH, built my own decks, and joined a small EDH Skype group that would later turn into PlayEDH.”

“I walked into an LGS as a fresh player with a Planeswalker deck, most people there were playing a multiplayer format I hadn't seen before. After asking about it and being taught how to play using one of their decks, a week later I went back into that LGS with the Estrid and Saheeli precons , and just kept playing and building decks ever since.”
