What Have You Learned From Magic Math :). Magic also changes the way you think as far as values and risk. Biggest Mistake Players Make Caring so much that it pains you to lose. Young players tend to lose sight of the big picture and get torn up when they lose. To overcome this, your mindset / approach to Magic needs to evolve to where you enjoy the game and understand that it is a game and how lucky you are to fuel your competitive drive through a complex hobby. Parting Guidance Don't lose sight of yourself and don't let loses define who you are.
