It just occurred to me that everyone tells me that giving new players an affinity deck to play is a bad idea.
What the hell? How do you screw up with affinity? The entire strategy consists of playing everything that can be played, then attacking. It's not even necessary to do anything with most of the cards in play, just smash things with Broodstar.
Besides, it's a hell of a lot less confusing than a control deck. Or any combo deck.
Also, the new lands without the tap mechanic are retarded. There wouldn't be such an issue with new players getting confused between lands and mana if the swamps don't have a giant fucking skull printed in the text box. Besides, under this system there'd still be some newb who taps Llanowar Elves to put a forest into play. Retconning creature types is a huge clusterfuck too, because now you can never be sure if something like Cerulean Wyvern is still a wyvern (hint: it's not).
