    Favorite Pimp Language

    The pimp Legacy Decks thread is basically talking about the foreign language cards and the best ones. What are your opinions on all the languages? What is the most pimp language?

However, since Korean cards are older and some of em are hard to find, i must admit that my favorite of the current languages is a toss up between Russian and German. German and Russian are both just badass languages, but to me Russian wins in a photo finish.


    Again, if anyone happened to have nabbed a Russian 10th pack other than me and can provide a Russian 10th Incinerate (<3 the artwork and i've got 3 Russian ones currently) I am beyond interested.

    I agree. If you ever seen my pimped cards, almost all of them are english because anyone can read it.

    This may seem kind of strange, but in tournaments its a big help. Especially when cards do complicated things.

    Re: Favorite Pimp Language

    Most recently I've been a big fan of Russian, if only because it's new (although it looks pretty badass, too).

    Outside of that, my favorite non-English language to get cards from is Japanese, because I can actually read some of them.

    I will normally Pimp out a deck in ONLY languages I can understand, although I like my decks being all one language if I can. Thus I normally stick with all English, or just French, German, or, if there were more than a single card with this, Latin.

    Not gonna lie, if they printed cards in Latin, that would be my pimp language of choice.

    Pretty sure it is a joke.

    Not even the right wording.

    It sounds great, looks cool, and gives me an excuse to get mad at anyone using Ecclesiastical over Classical. It would certainly be worth it, but some of the translation would be nightmarish.

    Re: Favorite Pimp Language

    I voted German since it's pimp and really good-sounding for Magic cards, but if they ever print cards in either latin or ancient greek, then I'll sell my soul to the Denizen of the Deep to get playsets of every card playable in legacy in those. That'll be some serious awesome pimpage.

    When Magic meets high scholarship and philosophical studies, I'm likely to have a boner.

    S-Chinese. Second best language. Other than acutal beta.
