Favorite Color (in magic, of course)

What colors do you like, and like to play? What color do you not play, and hate to play against?
I like red and green. I dislike playing against black and blue.

I am in line w/ rg-
Old-school days I played a lot of black and/ or white. Blue is fun but obviously more powerful, green is kinda boring to me, and red is okay but easiest to play, it requires less thought.
Back in the day when a combo deck ran stuff like Sorceress Queen/ Nettling Imp/ Sengir vampire, white & black were what I enjoyed playing most. Those two colors can still evoke a nostalgic feeling.

Out of 12 decks, 1 is black/blue, 2 are black, 3 are mono-red, 3 are mono-green, 1 is green/red, and 1 is white/green. The black/blue is best, but requires the most thought.

When i first started playing back in 94 i played Red, Green. I got tired of all the counter in blue and played a White, Blue mess with ya deck. now i have no favorite i'll play any color any combination i play for fun. winning is a bonus. not a must for me. right now i'm finding every card that goes well with Crucible of Worlds.Then i'll figure out the deck and colors.

same here. I like winning, but my decks are designed to be fun - I find a card I like and build a deck around it, like my Wurm deck with Crush of Wurms, my black/blue deck with U. Dreams, etc, and so on. I'll play any color, but as hard as I try, most end up green, and with 4 BOPs in them.

I'd have to say my favorite colors go in the following order, from favorite to least favorite:
White, Black, Blue, Green, Red.
I don't really dislike playing against a particular color, just specific strategies, like bounce.

I guess that i really the core of what I was saying. I dont dislike blue or black, I just dislike bounce / countering and those black "kill everything" decks. I have nothing against the colors, just specific abilities that those colors have.

Yeah, I am sure everyone loves sitting on their @** while their opponent counters stuff and then all of a sudden their opponent plays one threat and wins the game. I hate that but for some reason I keep playing 4cc.

I built a 5 color dragon deck that used sneak attack and zirilan of the claw that once i played one or two cards everyone new the deck and i was a target and still would win after about 10 or so games over a 3 month period it was no more fun for any of us so i retired it. Nicol Bolis is still giving me dirty looks in my binder he liked the look on people's faces as he destroyed thier hopes of winning lol

I haven't put together a serious deck for the longest time. Lately my decks are theme decks that keep playing silly cards to make the opponent laugh and not want the game to end. Like my hobo deck. When I play my 5th lonely sandbar, or my "homeless joe" from deadlands, the game is pretty fun. Other than that, I don't like any color. The idea of a U/W control deck fascinates me. I have no clue how to play a black deck, so stay away from those.
