Well, I figured I would start a Magic thread too, but I wanted it to be focus on older decks. From players that scoffed at the indroduction of "beginer" sets like portal, who though shadow(or whatever it was) was just another stupid version of flying to force everyone to buy new cards and remember when creatures didn't always have abilities and spells didn't do 10 different things.
I started playing a little bit after 3rd edition, stopped sometime between 6-7th.
So I figured I would start with my main deck. (this deck was the reason I don't have any good blue or white decks, had to trade a lot of stuff)
Lands
20xMountains
Creatures
2xThundermare
3xShivan Dragon (from 3 different editions)
3xUthden Troll
1xBall Lightning
4xLightning Elemental
1xSubterranean Spirit
Sorcery
4xDisintegrate
4xRolling Thunder
4xFireball
3xPyroclasm
1xInferno (wish I had some more of these, the copy I have is the only one I've seen played)
1xKaervek's Torch
2xJokulhaups
1xShattering Pulse
Enchantment
2xMana Flare
Artifacts
1xNevinyrral's Disk
2xHowling Mine
This is a fairly straightfoward deck, but many of the good things and bad things of it go to both sides. I've had more then a few games end in a draw when I blew both of us up at once... for some reason in 3+ player games I'm always the first one targetted, but if I'm not they usually wish I had been.
Of course with all the new cards out there this probably doesn't stand a great chance anymore. And it is highly susceptable to a few specific cards.
