Default Magic The Gathering!

So who here plays? If so do you have apprentice? If so I could use a good match from anyone?

Also what's your favorite Expansion and your favorite card from that expansion?

Mine is Prophecy and my favorite card from prophecy is... I don't have a favorite I love them all! Well most of them.

My friends used to play it all the time...but that was about 6 months-1 year ago.

I never really got into it, but after watching them play it enough, I was able to play a few games, but like I said..never reallly got into it.

I've got some cards, but the last pack I bought was from 5th edition. And before that, I bought the very first starter (way back in 93). They're oooooooold...

I hate Elf decks and the people who use them. They are so damn annoying, and the only people I really see use them (with a few exceptions) is beginners...

I myself use a very sweet Zombie Deck:

Creatures:
3 Putrid Raptor
3 Gempalm Polluter
2 Sepherd of Rot
4 Rotlung Reanimator
4 Withered Wretch
4 Festering Goblin
4 Undead Warchief

Instants:
4 Terror
4 Smother

Enchantments:
3 Call to Grave

Land:
21 Swamps
4 Unholy Grotto

Sideboard:
2 Zombify
3 Raise Dead
3 Vulshock Battlegear
2 Vulshock Gauntlets
2 Lethal Vapors
3 Persecute

Man...that is one awesome deck...

[Edit] I thought I might want to post the strategy of my deck:
Basically the strategy is to build up an army of zombies as fast as possible. Undead Warchief is probably my favorite card in the deck. It lets me play Zombies for one less mana cost, and it gives all zombies +2/+1. You can imagine what happens if I get 2 or 3 or even 4 undead warchiefs out...Beautiful.

At the same time, I use cards such as Smother, Terror, and Call to Grave to keep my opponet from amassing an army of their own. Call to Grave is a very efficient card....

The Combination of Rotlung Reanimator, Withered Wretch, and Shepherd of Rot is awesome...If my opponet manages to get a huge big stronge creature out, I can just block with my Clerics, and by using Rotlung Reanimator's ability, they all get turned into 2/2 Zombies if they die...So I block their big creature with every cleric I have, and they kill it, then they all come back from the dead as a 2/2 Zombie. Beautiful.

Another source of damage for my opponet is the combo of Gempalm Polluter and Unholy Grotto. I cycle Gempalm Polluter, and I get to draw a card, but it also deals damage to target player equal to how many zombies I have in play...It hurst them like a mofo. Then I use Unholy Grotto to put Gempalm Polluter back on top of my library, and the process repeats itself. Beautiful.

Another one of my favorite Cards is Shepherd of Rot. If I can get my opponet's life down a little lower than mine...all I gotta do is use Shepherd of Rot's ability "deal damage to each player equal to the number of zombies you have in play". I have won MANY a game using this card. Beautiful.

Man, I dont even remember playing that deck on Apprentice. I remember playing against it at school though...And I think I managed to beat it once. (Using one of your other decks, lol)

I'd post my fourth turn win deck (mono blue with Phage additives), but I'd have to formulate a decklist.
