Card game questions

[Rogue Ruffian 72]

I'm a huge tabletop gaming fan, and have been looking for a new CCG to get into. I play Redemption, but the community is small, and almost non-existent in my area. Could I ask some MLP:CCG questions?

 

1. Is the community big across the country? I love tournaments, and want to make sure there is an established comm to play with. Who plays, and where?

 

2. Are the starters good? Many games (*cough* Magic *cough*) have terrible starters, and it kills it for me. I colllect, but want to be able to build and modify to start with.

 

3. Is it good? I've seen it played and reviewed, but want some input from dedicated players, not professional reviewers. Please be honest, brutal if needed. This might become my go-to CCG, and I'd like it to be a good one.

 

Thanks!
