I almost forgot, after my long-winded tirade above concerning my CCG addiction and why I should get this prize, I forgot to talk about my CCG skills.
I had a nearly unbeatable Vampire/Tim/Icy Manipulator/Royal Assassin deck back in the day when I played Magic in College. It was black/blue and was based around lots of Vampires (including Baron Sengir) which grew when damaged, lots of fast mana (ala moxes, Black Lotus, Dark rituals and sacrifice lands), multiple Tims and tim-like cards (that tapped to deal one damage) and four Icy Manipulator's coupled with Royal Assassins to tap and destroy any of my opponent's creatures. There were a couple counterspells in there as well for good measure.
Now I like to use a Cleric or Soldier tribal deck. I find they work great, particularly with all the Clerics and Soldiers in the Legions/Scourge/Onslaught Block of cards.
I preferred using a Pikachu/Richu based deck for Pokemon. I also completed the Pkemon trading card game for Gameboy.
In addition, I played and finished the little known but awesome tradng card video game for the Neo Geo Pocket Color called Fighters Card Clash. It was a video game based on a card game using famous Capcom and SNK fighting characters (e.g. Ken, Ryu, Chun Li etc.). It was so awesome, I played it twice.
Hows that for addicted?
P.S. I'm also decent at Blackjack, Hearts and Euchre.
