Dude, I saw you playing with that thing on Sunday and was floored. When you cast that back-printed Brainstorm and I swear everyone within ten feet of your match snapped their heads in that direction like they'd felt a trembling in the aether. People were like "This can't be what I think it is, not every card."
Does anyone in europe know if any of the bigger vintage leagues over there allow CE/IE? Seems like a ton of them spring up from Italy / Spain on the various sites. I know a guy from Italy bought my 95% signed CE set 5-6 years back off eBay.
Or were they all bought up to try and make fakes ...
I have never heard of one of the major European Vintage tournaments allowing proxies. They're DCI-sanctioned after all.
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!).
While this is true, when deck-checks are done, do they check to see if BB power is CE or not if it's clipped perfectly?

Something nice i picked up along the way, if anyone fancies it i'll put it up on Ebay ;)
NM Korean Goodies <3
Collectors Edition cards have gold borders on the back and the edges are square, so it's not that hard to make out in a deck check. Plus it says COLLECTOR'S EDITION on the back. :P
More stoneblade goodies came in today. Poor picture quality but all foil if you can't tell.
"Dredge isn't a deck, it's public masturbation with graveyard triggers."
Can you imagine the agony of believing one of your power was real, only to have a deck check reveal it's a fake ... smack in the middle of an event?
How about this scenario, a spliced card - the front part could be real (you can't tell a CE front from a beta front right?).
I have a real beta jet and I also have a beta jet with no back that I can only assume is a CE/IE (otherwise why would it be sanded down?). I'll post some scans.
Have you ever caught someone using counterfeit cards? Was it deliberate? What was the punishment? Could you imagine reporting someone to the police? Do you know if WotC reacts when someone is reported to the DCI using "real" fake cards, like illegal reprints from some dubious country?

I've locked up 3 JP Foil Windswept Heaths so far; pics coming once I get back from SCG Orlando this weekend. (Still need a 4th! And Presences! :( )

That Brainstorm is 100% insane.
Also, is that clique even close to sleeve playable?
I feel like that deck also is short a crimped foil flooded strand that I happen to own.
I feel it's short the crimped beta Savannah that I eBay'ed half a decade ago. It irritated me that it was crimped.
I would post my Vintage deck, but it's 1 card short of being sanctioned legal. That means you don't get to see it yet - which is a shame since it's very pretty. *anticipation*
Rules:
UNL power until I upgrade to NM beta... ya that might take a yearly bonus or ten to achieve
Korean if available, otherwise Pre-8th Edition (aka Old frame)
FBB German on duals
Foils are ugly and Signatures deface the cards. (I'm looking at you Rob Alexander)
