[blackberrybold]

Nice work!

[Noctalor]

What are we missing? 1 Darkblast/Disfigure/Pierce/Sylvan Library?

[now]

Got my second FOUR Deck Tutor Binder on Saturday (a V2 this time).

What’s different from version 1? (Google won’t tell me.)

awesome Dredge!

in unsigned deck I'd prefer unsigned cities for perfection though

Has anyone else found any issues with new foreign foils not being great for signing? I haven't found any markers that will work well on them, specifically black marker (Sharpie Metallic Silver worked just fine).

The metallic Sharpies work, also silver or gold paint pens work. I started seeing it around New Phyrexia on foils but starting in Theros block even non-foil Japanese cards started having that different coating that messes with a regular black Sharpie.

I've heard a couple theories on how to work around it. That it's temperature sensitive and you have to rub the cards or warm them in your hand, but I haven't managed to make that work. Eric Deschamps uses those big fat wide tip Sharpies to sign and those turn out better due to the sheer amount of ink they drop.

TL;DR: I've started converting over to silver/gold for newer sets.

I'm a crazy person that has to have everything match (Being a Graphic Designer, aesthetics mean more to me). Anyone? Black marker advice?

[nedleeds]

I'm a thick sloppy metallic gold/bronze sharpie guy so I have no advice. MoxMonkey still owes me a nut kick for getting one of his cards gold inked instead of blacked at gencon last year :p

Not every card is produced in the same factory. Foreign sets are typically also printed in locations closer to the point of sale. Thus, there is a slight variation of the finished product between printings/sets/editions/languages/foiling. That is another likely cause why some languages take the to the ink better than others.

Atleast it wasn't on the balance! HAHA! I traded off the petal to a friend. I originally gave up on metallics because of the explosion factor, so now I don't take the chance. Now the black just looks better to me.

[nedleeds]

Fair enough. There's always next Gencon ... I think that's Aprils only regular stop. Unsure if my koreeeeen Alurens can fit anymore ink on them. You going to Vancouver? I am going to Memphis instead because ... car ride and dry rub vs. plane trip and ... uh Tim Hortons?

[sdematt]

You said you were heading up! Bastard!

[nedleeds]

You said you were heading up! Bastard!

Yeah. Same date. One is a 4 hour drive and I get to drink and eat BBQ. One is a giant plane ticket and ... uh Bryan Adams. The artists are a wash, guy who did Thalia, Resto and Metamorph in Vancouver or guy who did Wurmcoil, Vengevine, Arid Mesa, Ugin and some random cool legends in Memphis.

The one true Sharpie:



You may also want to look into other kinds with different ink formulas. Industrial and Super Sharpie come to mind.

[bwah?]

These aren't 4th Edition basics. My guess is they are 5th Edition. Japanese was first printed in 4th Edition and as is policy WoTC printed it in black border.

I think those ARE 4th actually. Japanese had a small run of 4th in both BB and WB. (I've seen a couple others posted elsewhere, just crazy rare)

[nedleeds]

Korean and Chinese Fourth Edition cards have been made only with black borders while Japanese, Portuguese, and Spanish cards exist with white and black borders.

[nedleeds]

Not a chance. Either the game is dead or Alpha Black Lotus is 10-15% more than now or even more if vintage takes off with MOL. Foil JTMS isn't going to be worth close to it. He'll be reprinted in Wal Mart by then. Actually he'll probably get a foiling in FTV: 20 since he pretty much owned standard that year.

Man ... I am basically always right.

Sideloaded and a bit more space per card slot

[ivanpei]

beautiful and all, but WHY the ugly promo bolts?
Why not the gorgeous judge ones?

Thanks. I love full arts, as can be seen by foil Unhinged basics. May consider switching in future but I generally have a preference for full arts.
