So I barely know anything about MTG but I want to get cards for myself and a couple friends. What's the easiest way to get into this? (I know there's the video game but I wanna go real cards). I see there are two deck starter kits which seem cool, maybe I get one of those for each of us and then some booster packs? Like $30 per person is what I'm going for. Are the starter decks balanced against each other? Is there other stuff I should know?

    I would suggest looking up a bunch of pauper deck lists and buy the singles needed for those.

      I just learned what pauper decks were and I'll look into this, thank you for the suggestion!

        Pauper itself is actually from what i've heard and seen a supported format of MtG. It's all common rarity only, and rarely if ever decks hit or go above $30.
