im 19 i started during the Urza block (when i was 9 or 10) and played casually until onslaught (when i was 13). i missed mirrodin and kamigawa blocks altogther and started back up just over a year ago when Ravinica was getting ready to rotate... just after Planar Chaos came out.
I'm only 14 still, started playing really casually back when I was 10 and my brother played, but really started actually playing (like buying cards) last year at 13. I feel young for this site, 18 year olds feel old for it, it seems no one is confortable...
I'm fourteen, but I'm advanced for my age - people never realize it online or in real life, so I often choose to lie about being older beecause I'm sick of being talked down to

RIP Polar Bear God
Friend, artist, magic player, but most of all, Polar Bear God. We'll miss you, buddy
I'll be 42 in about 3 weeks. I started playing when Revised was going out. I quit when Mercadian Masque was coming in. I've recently gotten back into magic due to my son and brother-in-law. I like some of the new mechanics. Some I don't fully understand, but it's coming along.
I'm 27, but I feel like 64 minus the experience. Ehh, that's life I guess. Trust me kiddies, have fun while you're still young. Live fast, but don't screw yourself up so much you won't be able to see straight in 10 years(Trust me on this one). But yeah, do live fast. Life really isn't as interesting as you'd think it could be. Don't let fun times pass you by, if it looks good, go for it. Try to worry less and act more. Have fun, but don't mess with other peoples fun.
I feel like I'm signing a highscool yearbook, I wish I was.
P.N.S: Been playing since the last bits of revised/early bits of 4th edition
19 years old here. Started When Tempest and Urza's were in standard. Hopefully you'll see me on top 8 lists for PTQs in the next year or two, Im just getting back into tournament play.

i am 23 and i stared collecting magic around Mercadian Masques and started playing just after the release of 6th. I collected magic mainly for the art back then but once i found someone that could teach me how to play i have been addicted to the game.

I started during Revised when there were Legends boosters for $5, Arabian Nights booster for $5, and the Dark boosters for $4. My brother got me into the game when I asked him what he wanted for his birthday. He said a card called Nightmare and I was hooked ever since. Then I quit during Ice Age because I thought it was the end of Magic. I sold all of my cards, including Power and so many Beta cards, including Duals.
Then I restarted during Tempest and immediately bought 2 boxes of Tempest to get back in. I really got into Type 2 at that time, although it was a slow process. Then I quit after Mercadian Masques. I gave my remaining cards to my brother as pay back for selling his mint Beta Black Lotus to sweeten up my sale during Ice Age.
I restarted again during the Kamigawa/Mirrodin Block near the end of Mirrodin. My brother's friend dug up some of his old cards and his younger brother had started playing. I bought the deck Tooth and Nail right after Affinity was banned and won 1st place in 8 tournaments out of 8. Unfortunately, I didn't know the place was unsanctioned.

I'm 27 now, 28 @ the end of this month, and I've been playing since I was 14. I think my 1st Magic product was a 4th tournament pack. My younger brother & I were in a KayBee toy store & talked my mom into getting us something we could play together. We picked that because I had saw Magic before but not having a job/income of any kind I didn't wanna get into a CCG. At the time I was just starting to get comics too so all my money I did have went to those. Another reason we got Magic was because we tried playing D&D. D&D got boring kind quick when it was just my 2 younger brothers & me trying to play all the time. I spend way too much on Magic nowadays. Thx for reading!
I'm 17 currently. I started playing magic around Onslaught, but i didnt start play competitive until Champions came out. And sadly magic has gotten less and less fun for me every time standard rotates :(. I'm contemplating currently since my job and life are starting to get in the way. Shards of Alara will greatly impact this choice. Lets hope shards is a good set!

I said I'm not sure. I mean, I want to have children, but I could change my mind down the road, or simply have my testicles cut off in some kind of freak accident. It's just too early for me to tell.
Draft it on Cubetutor!
um, yes, that makes me an old timer.
