This was my first time participating in a gift exchange. I've always seen them around the site, but never felt like the risk outweighed the reward, so I lurked. But then I saw an ad for the "TCG" gift exchange. This immediately piqued my interest because I just recently got into playing Magic The Gathering. So, I felt like this exchange would be a great opportunity to try something exciting while having fun with my new addicti... hobby.

I filled out my profile and explained how I was new to the game and what types of things I was interested in and my santa nailed my gift. Every bit of it was geared towards what I described, perfectly! I could not be more pleased with what I recieved and I can not express enough gratitude.

My santa got me a Magic The Gathering "Duel Decks" pack (Heroes vs Monsters), which contains 2 preconstructed, well-balanced decks (for two players) and a set of rules. (Perfect for a beginner like myself and a friend!) They also included a "fat pack" of Dragon's Maze cards, which contains 9 booster packs, two deck boxes, a single dice, and a Dragon's Maze booklet and art background! As if that weren't enough, they also included a 285 card "Deck Builder Toolkit"! This had semi-random cards, plus 4 booster packs from various MTG sets and a pack of lands! Wow! What an awesome thing to do for a new player! I'm still in awe of the generosity.

Right now, I'm in the process of building a new deck with the cards I got and I can't wait to go to my local shop and play in some tournaments! I'll have an awesome story to tell people I play with too!

From the bottom of my Magic loving heart, thank you!
