Good for Beginners May 10, 2008
This is a good introduction to the game of Magic the Gathering. The bad news is that these theme decks don't include the rules of the game, which are available as a free download from magicthegathering.com. However, unlike the Starter Game, you end up with five different AND PLAYABLE decks. From these decks, you'll begin to understand the differences between the colors. You'll understand that green is full of really large and powerful monsters, while blue likes to grab control over card draws.
If you continue to play Magic the Gathering, you'll end up buying lots of booster packs or buying individual cards from card dealers (either in person or online). And eventually you'll outgrow these cards. But for the beginning, this is not a bad place to start.

Magic Starter Decks Mar 25, 2008
If you are just starting out, this is the perfect buy for you. It's the latest addition set from Magic the Gathering and it gives you everything you need to start out, minus the instructions which can be found online. You get land cards of every color, and even some rares.

 An Expensive Introduction to a Marvelous Game Feb 28, 2008
For the same amount of money you are spending on these decks at full retail, you could buy a couple thousand magic cards from a card store. Keep in mind these decks are 40 cards each, only come with two 'rare' cards each. For the same price per deck, buying 3 booster packs at full retail gives 3 rares. Additionally, normal magic the gathering decks are 60 cards each, so playing the 'normal' game you'd have to get more cards somehow or mash two of the decks together.
Overall, if you really want to learn Magic the Gathering, go down to your local comic or card store, and ask the cashier about learning how to play. They'll probably tell you about regular tournaments, but if you mention you have money to spend, they may arrange a tutorial. Magic the Gathering is a great intellectual fantasy game. The secondary market value of the cards inside these decks is very low, so be warned.

40 cards Feb 11, 2008
this is an okay set if your new to magic,but otherwise stay clear of this set.there are 40 cards to a deck,the idiea is you combine two of the decks to make an 80 card deck,but then you have one problem.....you have 40 cards left over,not enough to make a deck.this product is at least decent.in my opinion youd be better off buying the saviors of kamigawa set of 4 theme decks.

Not a bad place to start if you're new to the game Jul 25, 2007
This product is intended primarily for people who don't already have a collection of Magic cards, and who want to be able to purchase an instantly playable deck without having to try to construct it themselves and without needing to purchase several booster packs of cards to get enough that work together to make a deck.
5 of these premade decks are available--one for each color. These decks include cards that compliment each other well and work toward a common "theme" (essentially a strategy to beat your opponent). They also include enough land cards to play the deck effectively. A mix of common, uncommon, and rare cards is included as well, so you'll get a wide variety of cards that vary in power.
There are a few advantages to buying a premade deck such as this. The most obvious is that you can play it right out of the box, and these are actually fairly decent decks. If you've never played the game these decks will give you the opportunity to see how a deck is built and what makes it run smoothly, and hopefully give you an idea of how to eventually put one together yourself. You can also use this as a base and tweak it as you buy more cards, swapping out more powerful cards or cards that do different things as you acquire them.
One thing, however, is important to note. While these premade decks are a good place to start and will be entertaining if you pit a couple of them against each other, they're not going to hold up well against custom built decks more advanced players will have. These are common theme decks that are pretty easy to play, but take them to a card shop or something and play them against other people there and you'll likely not do too well. This is a place to start, nothing more--if you want to compete in the game you're going to have to get more cards and eventually learn to build decks yourself.
