Metagame - The Basics, Part 1: The First Steps

Life is full of firsts that change existence as you know it. As a baby, the first steps you take open up a whole new environment of exploration and learning. When you speak your first words, you enter into a world of effective communication, allowing you to point out to mother that you just went “fall down.” The first day of school puts you on a road of education and social development that will serve you in good stead for the rest of your life. So what about the first time you pick up a handful of Vs. System cards and think, “I wonder how I play this game?” That, my friends, is the first step on a path to creative, enthralling, strategic gameplay. Over the next few weeks, I am going to look at Vs. System at its most basic and try to help new players get a foot in the Vs. System door. These articles will probably offer little to the experienced pro, but if I can help just one new player understand the game better, I’ll be a happy chappy.

We all have to start somewhere. I myself had absolutely no knowledge of TCGs or comics when I discovered Vs. System. As a result, I found starting out to be quite a slow process. That was until I found a gaming store in my town with a very helpful owner. When I telephoned the store, they had not been open very long, Vs. System had only just been released, and they did not have any product in stock. If you’re faced with a similar situation, don’t panic. I kept calling until Jason (the owner) finally got some Marvel Origins delivered. After that, a player base quickly built up, and there were plenty of people to get a game with.
