Well, I currently have placed 100% of the votes on standard! Oooooh yeah.

I would always prefer to play the format that is most supported and uses the most modern cards. This is not a question of power level - even though later sets can sometimes be over the top - I also play only standard Magic.

Movieblock. IMHO the most balanced block. (if you leave LR out, as a gentlemans agreement)

I agree. But I still pack Terrible As the Dawn just in case!

Its a tough choice between movie and fellowship, but I'm going for movie because it has more deck options, is the most balanced, and has the best pictures Oooooh yeah.

Whenever I play, it's expanded. I love throwing old decks against new ones... especially when I crush with Dunland...  Twisted!

Standard is my preference, for similar reasons to Thran.

Casual for me. Any card can be used this way. It allows me to express and fully immerse myself into LOTR without have to follow decktypes. Smiley

Expanded, def. Why have the cards if we can't use them? And expanded doesn't have too many crazy, infinite, ridiculous stuff.

Tower.

It's the block I started with and cccorniv have the best matches in this format.  Fellowship is a close second though.

I don't have much playing experience, but judging from the games I played, movie block games were the most balanced.

I am very interested in Hunters Block, but I am still in process of getting enough cards to build at least two decks to play (because nobody else in my neck of the woods is interested in this block)...
