Magic: The Car-thering...


Gamer Life General Discussion


My sons were playing with their little cars this morning. For some reasons, they decided to make 5 racing/battling teams based on the five colours of magic in Magic: the Gathering.

Now my my sons (being 8 and 5) know of Magic, but i wouldn't consider them experts on the subject. Nevertheless, I was amazed how they picked cars that were altogether appropriate with each colour theme...

Each had picked one car of each colour, so 2 cars per team:

Red: a dark red, industrial-sized front-loader and a fire-engine red Ford Shelby Cobra.

Green: a dark greed safari Land Rover and a light green SUV monster-truck (hehe, giant growth...)

White: a white tow-truck and an iridescent white '70 Camaro (fire-department stickers).

Blue: a bright blue, souped-up street-racing car with a transparent hood and a blue hot-wheels colour scheme '72 Plymouth Barracuda (slightly out of theme but the name saved it!)

Black: a mean-looking but otherwise plain black Kenworth truck (full cab and all) and a black hot-rod (zombified vehicle?) with skull art.

though I'd share...

They didn't have white ER ambulance?

Spoiler:
Wait, 'findel has children?


1 person marked this as a favorite.

Why would you want an ambulance? Ambulances can't do anything for cars, just people. A tow truck is much more fitting.


Car Wars meets MtG, the next CCG craze, complete with vehicle sponsorships, model year-updated foils and the usual zany romp of market-saturation mayhem and pretend violence!

Save the driver.

Those are remarkably good picks.

Years ago, I actually started to hammer out some notes for a tongue-in-cheek Magic: the Gathering homage called Internet: the LOLening.

Colors were tied to browsers. (Firefox = white, Chrome = red, Internet Explorer = black, Safari = green, Opera = blue).

Artifacts were pieces of hardware (ergonomic keyboards, wireless routers, gaming chairs). Spells were tied to websites. Wikipedia, WebMD = white, social networks and 4chan = black, etc).

It was a humorous little exercise.
