ON Fridays, Carlo Endaya, the marketing head of a consumer goods company, closes his laptop for the last time before the weekend. He packs his bags and prepares for a night out and some Friday night magic. For some, that may mean going out with friends, but for Carlo and other like-minded individuals, it means going to their local game store and shuffling up their deck of "Magic: The Gathering."

"Magic: The Gathering" is a collectible card game created by Dr. Richard Garfield and released in 1993 by Wizards of the Coast. The game was meant to be something you could easily bring around to play with a few friends. Players would construct their own decks and duke them out across kitchen tables for hours of fun.
