What I remember from those days is you had to have a "millstone" deck (make your opponent run out of cards) and "moxy" deck (achieve the ultimate by winning on the first turn by having the rarest cards all in the same hand on the first turn). there where others, but those two where the only ones that really stuck to memory
Millstones were easily countered by several different strategies. Speaking of countering, there were/are purpose-designed "counter" decks (blue, can be frustrating to play against), and "protection" decks / white weeny-creature decks (my favorite), colorless (all-artifact) decks, and the list goes on and on (and on and on ...). MtG, the game that gave us the memorable term "fork you".
