I have initially planned this event September last year to help spread the knowledge of this hobby as well as to recruit new players from the younger generations. I was not able to push through though because of lack of contacts from the schools for their events like College and University week and related happenings. Anyhow, I just would like to share this summary of the things to do during an MtG School Drive:
1. Introduction and brief history of Magic: the Gathering TCG.
2. Awareness of the local MtG Iloilo Community.
3. Magic: the Gathering learn-to-play discussion and play session along with distribution of test decks.
4. Giving out of freebie decks for those who are interested and for further play sessions.
So far these four are the important aspects of this school drive in which I will focus more on learning and mastering the parts of a turn and the card types’ interaction. Hopefully for this school semester I will be able to start the first leg. Hobby Con was the last major gathering wherein I was able to tutor the new players and hoping this will be the follow up to their learning.
I will have another blog post in case there will be updates from my current contacts on the schools.
Until the next post.
