It is a card trading card game I got into it in 94 when it was just physical cards and began playing online in 2001. It is a fun gme but to get really good cards you have to dish out quite a bit for it. It is only 10 dollars to get an account and it comes with a deck but it takes alot of strategy and if you want your deck to be challenging you have to spend at least 50-100 dollars.
It is addicting but not many girls play because girls do not like strategy games so much.
