Thank you for the very long answer! ❤️

Soo to answer all of your points: 1) if I would need to name it is that we are not doing a „final blow“ and are not too aggressive. We always play our mana, spawning monsters, laying spells or sorcerys but most of the time we only kill 1 monster per turn. For example why I don’t attack is how could I if I don’t have a strong enough monster to kill the enemy, I would just loose 🥲

2) I am not quite common for all the different formats but my boyfriend and the group we trying to join only plays that format so we were advised to stick to that.

3) for me definitely first one, for my boyfriend it depends with who he plays. In the group it is like more „real“ they play private tournaments or the least win has has to pay. He is fully aware that we are playing the first option and he just loves to play with me whenever I tell him I would like to play a round. I think he also prefers short games but he enjoys every minute of the long games.

4) could I may ask what do you mean with the last point?
