New in Moscow!!! I warnt to Play Magic!!! Search for friendly places!

[Nono]

Hey guys, I moved to Moscow and want to play magic.  Unfortunately my russian is very bad.  Are there anyone here who would still play with me (I have English cards) and / or nice magic stores where I can play with English cards?  Overall, I'm looking for nice magic rounds, especially in the casual area at the kitchen table or in the bar. Of course, playing in the store is also always nice.  

Thank you for your answers.

Norman

Hi, Norman. 
Tell us about yourself first.

There are a lot of skilled mages in Moscow, so you can easily find someone who would play with you.  Which format is your favorite?

[Nono]

Hey, what should I say.  I am 35 and moved to Moscow for work.  Will stay here for at least 6 years.  I play mainly in the casual area.  I like drafts but also constructed rounds and multiplayer formats like Brawl or Commander.  I like to play at the kitchen table.  So far I hardly speak Russian, which is why I have not yet gone to a store.  But now I'm starting to learn russian.

Надеюсь, не ЕДХ.

To play EDH contact @celestialserpent @protestofshiva @Next_rim

@Nono well, you can bring a kitchen table to one of Moscow game stores, but it won’t be appreciated I think. Maybe you should try tables placed there?

English language is not a problem in Moscow at all (don’t try it in Saratov).

@alexpupkin

Thank you for your answer. I will think about the kitchen table. 

But seriously.  Thanks for your help.  I'll probably stop by in a store.  The biggest is Edinorog, right?

[Akagawa]

English cards are not a problem at all, almost everyone uses it here. I think, playing magic doesn't require much communication, so you can try to play at stores (if you could read Russian cards).

Here is some mtg stores that holds casual (mostly casual standard) events:

Unicorn: edinorog.org/page/raspisanie

Goldfish: magicgoldfish.org

Cardplace: vk.com/cardplace (unfortunately, they don't have a timetable on the site, they post it in their vk group)

[haryausataya]

Руфоил карточек приехал набрать :)

 

@Nono  how you imagine to play against opponent with russian mtg cards? Is opponent must have only english cards or should he translate them for you?

 

P.S.

Надо пилить ивент - драфт на английских бустерах и общаться можно только по английски!

Well, drinking beer and playing mtg at the same time never seemed more legit than now

Gospodi...

[Nono]

No problem.  I know some cards and have a magic translator app.  Think it works.

[ZloyZombie]

i hope you experienced person in magic and EDH, cos you need to recognise cards rapidly to have comfortable games. anyway, welcome to Russia) 

you can visit Metagame at Paveletskaya at Tuesday, to have a look on our EDH community 

[Lear]

Places to play overall:

Edinorog - https://edinorog.org/page/kontakty-nov
GoldFish - http://magicgoldfish.org/index.php?id=10
League - http://league.org.ru/raspisanie-turnirov.html
TableTop - https://tabletop.moscow/page/kak-dobratsya

As I know most EDH players usually play in TableTop and GoldFish.

Btw, in most places tables are free to use except Edinorog so fell free to come and play with regular players.

Commander pods meet every Tuesday at Metagame LGS (Paveletskaya station) starting 19:00. Address is 5-й Монетчиковский пер., 3 строение 1, Москва, Россия, 115054 (copy paste it into google maps or sth). There is also commander FNM at Goldfish every Friday (Taganskaya station, Солженицына 27). You can also find players at TableTop LGS (Kurskaya station). 

Novermber 9th we are hosting 7th Moscow Commander Open (40+ players) at Tabletop.  

Most people know at least some English, so don't worry about the language.

Russian shouldn't be a problem, usually store staff and players speak some english (sadly, it is not the case in everyday life here)
