Scanning the deck seems like a much better choice for displaying the deck. I fail at taking pictures, so I may take that approach. Nice painter deck!

is this the same jamesh from gameplayer?Originally Posted by jamesh
this is the deck Ken Adams ran that came first at Starcitygames's legacy open in September in Minneapolis, so yes I'm pretty sure it's a real deck
the sleeves are really old (and battered, just for casual use) I think they're ultra pro
ill have to give you a game sometime
yes, pm me I am always up for a game of legacy, but i'll probably play something like this (before it's banned)

Nice stuff James!
Took me over a year but here we go!
Minty! :D
Hey guys,
i want to foil out my Landstill deck and was wondering which editions are more "pimp":
JR Flooded Strand vs. Onslaught Foil Flooded Strand
FNM Brainstorm vs. Mercadian Masques Foil Brainstorm
And then i wanted to ask how to pimp a Force of Will, unfortunately there aren´t any foils out there :(
Thanks!
Set Foils win, always.
German FoW, if you wanted to go there. Otherwise, Altered is your only choice.
The real question is what is the pimp counterspell?

I consider Onslaught foil to be more pimp. Just personal taste. I always prefer PR Wastelands to JR ones, mostly because I really appreciate the old border. I guess it's a matter of personal taste.
Regarding Brainstorm, I think MM Foil is more pimp by FAR!
FoW can be pimped in several ways:
- Artist signed / altered, Garfield signed
- other alterations
- "translation" to Japanese/Korean
- bleaching
Regarding Counterspell: MM Foil > Judge Foil >>>> Beta, from my point of view.
The seven cardinal sins of Legacy:
1. Discuss the unbanning ofLand TaxEarthcraft.
2. Argue that banning Force of Will would make the format healthier.
3. Play Brainstorm without Fetchlands.
4. Stifle Standstill.
5. Think that Gaea's Blessing will make you Solidarity-proof.
6. Pass priority after playing Infernal Tutor.
7. Fail to playtest against Nourishing Lich (coZ iT wIlL gEt U!).
I like the judge foil and the MM foils. MM Japanese foil has to be the ultimate.
I'm not sure which is rarer, the MM Japanese foil counterspell or the 7th edition Japanese foil counterspell.
Anyone like gunslinga or pizero care to elaborate? Cheers.
I think 7th Edition is more expensive, tbh, but not totally sure.

QFT!
I'd run a regular MM brainstorm before I stooped to FNM - yuck!
Summer counterspell is big time pimp imho, but the MM one is prettier (base set Jap foil is harder to get so 7th is prob. more expensive - but a bit ugly)
korean 5th brainstorms + counterspells are really nice but pretty hard to find in decent condition and for a fair price ...
white boards for the win
Heres my 150:
I really like your Zwang.
-Matt
Those were a pain to find!
+1!Regarding Brainstorm, I think MM Foil is more pimp by FAR!
I think this thread is getting a little stale. Some acquisitions in the past few months. Nothing big on the $$$ but these are pretty rare:
Original RK POST alter:
Original JASON CHAN alters:
I'm missing one, but I'm unlikely to play 4 Iona's in any deck. PS: Iona's are foil :)
So I'm getting ready for the ban of my deck by foil jap'n new horizons, I have most of the deck complete but realized I can't foil jap swords. I already have foil swords but its going to be an eyesore in english..
what do!?
Japanese black border swords aren't too hard to find. Not sure if that would look better though. Personally I would keep the foils.
my survival deck, not pimping anymore do to the banning, pimping new horizon now.
Sweet deck James, I've seen it many times on live video feeds, you've made your money back on that deck. But I did enjoy watching you play new horizons before July and the whole survival thing, it should be a great deck again.
