I barely got a draw in my second game. It was a close fought game of me not losing, and at least I won that. It was with high hopes that I would be able to do well on my next game.

So, there I was, playing a new game that I thought I’d be able to get a handle on. And I lose….big. Now, with the hand I was dealt, I don’t know if anyone really could of done much better than what I accomplished. In any case, the cards didn’t go the way that I wanted them to. Now, with the big loss and the tournament about to close admissions, I had to decide if I really wanted to take a chance to embarrass myself in playing the game in front of unknown others. By playing a game that I had only heard about a few hours earlier. However, the winner of the tournament got an Xbox 360 Arcade. Not a bad prize to win. Plus, those that didn’t win the grand prize had a shot to get The Spoils cards and promos.
This past Saturday at #Origins2010, I was introduced to the TCG The Spoils. I found it a refreshing new spin on card gaming. I’ll be comparing The Spoils to Magic: The Gathering often, but that’s because it’s the card game that I’m most familiar with. But before I talk about that, I’ll give you a quick tour of my card gaming background.
I first started playing these type of games back in 1994 with MTG. It was a new type of game for me and I was enthralled with it. This lasted until ’95/’96. I just didn’t have time and/or money to keep my addiction going.
