Magic the gathering

[Blackmetalfan]

Big fan of the game.
What typings would you give the 2 color guilds and 3 color shards/klans?

Tough question as all the colors have characteristics of multiple types.
INTP is a hard one to peg (P seems rampant only in red and partially blue (really only in cards like show and tell, tutors, omniscience, minds desire) Id guess izzet or temur, maybe simic.
Azorious is definitely the guardian (ESTJ) I believe.
Rakdos (ISFJ?)
Gruul (ESFJ)
Dimir (INTJ)
Esper (ENTJ)
Those are my best guesses.

Personally, I enjoy playing Dimir, mono black/blue, sultai, temur, and Gruul the most. Green is my favorite color, but I never play it alone. Just some creatures I like a lot (Omnath, Locus of Mana, skinshifter, primetime, scavenging ooze)
I despise the white gameplan as a whole. Really limits my options in EDH because I refuse to play white, but there are some great white cards I want to use some day especially in Naya or Bant.

Do you play on MTGO at all?

 

[Pyropyro]

Izzet is entp incarnate.

 

[Hadoblado]

Agreed on izzet.

What do you think of INTP being simic?

I usually love black/white or mono blue and red/blue.
The closest guild id say for intp is izzet.
Yes i do play mtgo. Was re hooked into playing mtg in general when the original innistrad block came out.

 

[Blackmetalfan]

Agreed on izzet.

What do you think of INTP being simic?

I never saw simic as intp i used tothink intj for simic.

I feel that green always has to be considered extroverted. Think about the usual EDH win conditions of each color as those win conditions tend to be the most powerful effects and intentions of their color. Disregard tribes when analyzing strategies. As for strategies; alternate win conditions is most likely intp as they require odd styles of play that aren’t optimized like we got think a deck should be. They require stretching rules, seeing the big picture, not participating in the game the other people are playing at your table, and crafty plays to hide your intent.

Green; Tooth and Nail (Grab TWO creatures out of your deck; often buddies that win the game), overrun/crater hoof behemoth (for these to work you need a lot of creatures paired with an anthem effect. Often in Simic decks, the goal is to gain advantage quickly through card draw and ramp, create a lot of tokens...victory. Simic likely Entp/ESTP. Simic decks often play in a manner that INTPs enjoy, but that does not make the cards INTP

I think izzet forces the F and E out of red, but red is probably the only color that can be regarded to as P with exception of such me blue spells. Red promotes chaos which can also be viewed as disorder (something Js despise). We see this in cards with the rummaging ability (discard, them draw), wheel effects, possibility storm. Win conditions like insurrection show us that we don’t care about having our own buddies on the field, we are perfectly fine borrowing yours to kill you, and then you can have them back when your dead. Peferect introvert move.
