    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 of Land Tax Earthcraft.
    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 have a LOT of misprints, since I've been collecting them for at least 8-10 years, and I have a lot of playable ones, especially blue ones, so I went with a blue-white control deck. Remember, this had to be a 75-misprint deck, so that's why I went with Jace Beleren instead of Jace the Mindsculptor and that sort of thing. I went 5-3 with it, beating a lot of top decks. I had a TON of fun and I will definitely be playing a lot more Legacy in the future. Here's what I played:

    <pics>

    If you can't see the card's misprinting, it's probably crimped. My misprinted EDH has no crimps in it because I thought that would be too easy, as I have over 6000 crimped cards, but I played some crimps in my Legacy deck because otherwise it would be impossible to field a playable deck.
    Sick! I gotta say, that Vendilion is the coolest :P

    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?

    Checking for counterfeit cards is done, yes.

    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.

    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.

    From what I've seen decks aren't desleeved in most legacy deck checks. At least mine haven't been ... and they are littered with beta wraths, armageddons etc.

    Such a deck check could turn out like

    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.

    Re: [Bragging] Pimp Legacy Decks

    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)

    This man speaks truth facts.

    I'm going for beat up beta for Gencon (4 cards to go). I can't deal with non P3K white bordered. I figure between Origins, Gencon and the bi-weekly Vintage here in Atlanta I'll pound the shit out of my cards any near mintness will be eroded.
