I hear there are many festivals which sound like the peak of activity in MD. What are they all about? 

MD Festivals varies from time to time. There are Christmas festivals, Halloween, MD Birthdays etc. These festivities often comes with a lot of quests, challenges and surprise activities that can either be benefited from, suffer from, or worse, like Ledah, die from.

Festivals in MagicDuel are just like festivals in real life or in other games, in that they're joyous occasions where wine and gold and laughter abound (and, well, hangovers and tears). What make MD festivals a bit more special is the fact that you can poke the bear. Lots of players hibernating over the year wake up and you get to see their awesomeness and weirdness like you haven't imagined. 

You know, most of us could have a perfect image of calm, collected, gifted and rational individuals - if only we didn't talk! Unfortunately, most of us do open our mouths and afterwards we have to deal with the consequences. 

MD festivities, whether it's the game anniversary or other special days, are events to PROFIT from if you are a new player and/or if you can manage to say only the reasonable and socially-acceptable. If you can't, let me shake your hand and then be embarrassed by my lack of perseverance in following the right way.

In any case, hop on the train.
