How many of the European pimp lurkers in this thread are headed to Bazaar of Moxen this year?
Yeah, as Viridia said, I'm probably in this year. Depends a bit on finances, but should be able to make it there.

Also, waiting for my last cards to arrive before I dare post here again. Waiting for pimp is just horrible. Takes too long!

Those test prints are fucking nuts. I'd Natural Order for a fucking Foil Scaled Wurm and just adjudicate the match on value.

Some new stuff I picked up ... pales in comparison to hijacked WotC test prints. I also picked up 2 Russian foils even though I hate them because the price was retarded low.

Inspired by nedleeds posting of full decks, this is the Landstill deck that I played in a Vintage event last weekend. Built specifically to combat Burning Long, though I somehow managed to dodge that deck all day despite the fact that it was 25% of the field. Oh well. I won the last event anyway, and there's always next time...

No, it's just a brown piece of cardboard about the size of a card that she drew on. I think it's pretty cool though and like how it fits in a binder slot.


Love those signed Mox Diamonds Nedleds!

Thanks. I'm usually pretty quiet around here, but I always enjoy your posts. Also, those are indeed the correct Mox Diamonds. This thread sometimes makes me feel like my impressive mtg collection (by any normal objective measure) is still inferior and lacking. I'm ashamed that I had to play that revised Volcanic next to the beta/unl ones.

I'm getting much closer to finishing my Vintage Dredge collection. I have been considering posting portions of it, but there are a few pesky cards that my half-assed efforts have been unable to track down so far. And then I remember that most people hate dredge anyway, let alone a "pimp" version, so I talk myself out of it.

We need more whole decks in this thread. Even though I personally don't like foils, Zakman's deck is sweet! I love me some pimp Enchantress!

Traded this today, at my local club.

Maby not as valuble, but it has to be the most awsome pimp-strange card. Love the art and arabic font and the old-foil that shines mutch better than the new ones. To bad the Basilisk dosent get used in any deck...

I wish they would print cards in Arabic more often, but then they need to start with a revised set so I can have arabic duals.

Love the Arabic!

Got some new arrivals today.

I decided to make Dredge, but since I'm already doing something out of the ordinary (for me), decided to also do it Russian where possible.

I've got to say, i'm LOVING the challenge of locating the cards needed, as opposed to just adding what i need to a cart and clicking buy.

Were the Hebrew and Arabic cards part of a promo or were they released locally?

Once in France a player was reading my Time Spiral and making a fuss about something so I was like "what's going on?" A friend of his, who spoke English, and who knew I was Turkish replied "Are your cards in Arabic, my friend can't understand what it does!" So I was like what an orientalist ignorant jack ass, first Turkish is nothing like Arabic we use the Latin alphabet and secondly there are no Arabic MtG cards nor Time Spirals, what an idiot. Turns out there are indeed cards in Arabic, quite surprised.

I found a place a few months back that has pro-fit/KMC perfect fits and Pro-Binders/Monster Binders at a good price. They have free shipping with orders over $150 or more, $8.50 flat rate in the lower 48 states. If you like them on Facebook they also have promotions that change every month if you spend X or more you get a free iten with the code.

http://www.potomacdist.com

they have the premium pro binders for $19 each or a case of 4 for $69.

I know the thread isn't supposed to be selling things, but this works for gaming supplies. It's been really nice since I'm upgrading how I store my foil sets in perfect fits then in pro binders... Yeah it's taken a while :cool: I need to get a scanner or something so I can show them off here.

It's not what I'm thinking. Of all the possible definitions of "dink" (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/dink?s=t) that I could plug into that, I'll go ahead and assume you mean:

n.
the penis, especially a small one. (Usually objectionable.) : God, Fred, you really got a dink. Is it full grown yet?
Because the other definitions just don't make sense because either you are somehow referring to a life raft, delicately striking each other, or accusing him of SE Asian heritage as an insult. Actually none of them seem like something I would be thinking about, let alone with regard to nedleeds (unless prompted by a situation such as parsing out the meaning of that post).

Also, did someone mention Russian cards? The Cyrillic script looks really nice on Magic cards.
Here's the Russian part of my Vintage Dredge Dread Return package:
http://www.mns-images.org/aahz/russian_dr.jpg
It's nothing fancy, but it took a bit of doing to put together (half to fun really). I'll post up the rest of my Dredge collection once I find non-foil, non-English Serum Powders, Darkblasts, and Fatestitchers. Sometimes it's the little stuff that's tricky.

I'm basically trying to get it fully Foiled out, Japanese when i get the chance and things that can't be foiled Altered. In a few months i should have 2 Bayous, 4 Tropicals, 4 Seas, 1 Scrubland and 1 Savannah UNL altered, because i hate the text on revised :(
But yeah, right now it looks abit messy :P

EDIT: Alot of the foils dont show very well on the scan either, the only things that arent foil and can be foiled are Jap Catacomb, 1 Misty, 3 Jace and Ancestral Visions :)

FNM brainstorm strikes again

Bahahaha. I know. The rest of the binder is awesome though.

I gotta say, I was just scrolling along, "Yeah, pimp, foil, russian, cool, FBB, whatever."

And then I got to the foil japanese invasion dragon legends, and my jaw dropped. Those things are amazing. I'll always have a soft spot for those, since my first rare ever was a Treva, the Renewer.

Well, I've finished old school pimping my Maverick deck. All cards with old borders are foil where available or A/B. I haven't bothered with foiling the cards with the new border, they look like shit anyway :-P

The thing I love most about pimping is hunting for cards that are hard to get, I always end up selling every completed project fairly quick after I'm done!

I would LOVE to get a playset of Test COT's , Even more so, I once saw a foil Test Survival of the fittest that I think was the coolest card I ever saw with a silver border.

but in general yes i would love to know where to locate these rarities since they dont really show up on ebay.

He has a second one up now. He raised the price and its in worse condition than mine. I think he jumped the price because this one sold so fast. :tongue:

To anyone who wants to be a real high roller, get foil textless duresses. They only cost 1 grand a pop or so/infinitely more than every other version. As for which version I like the best, arena league foil duresses with the original art by far. The new art is decent, but that new border shit is terrible when you can have old bordered pimp. 7th ed. is alright, but I like the arena art and flavor text a lot more.

If you want to pimp just go with the plain old originals. Oh, also the miscuts and misprints look horrendous, just have some aesthetic sense.

Portuguese foils ftw.

And I love the shiny football album stickers.

So it's my first post in here, I've been following this thread for a long time, and finally decided to start pimping too. Though my things aren't as pimp as most of yours, they are a start at least. And I know already that I won't stop pimping in any time soon :D

I thought about getting original foils, but to me pimping is all about what I find good looking. Judge Deeds have the better art and card border for foiling, imho. I don't like the old multicolored frame. Other old borders are superior, and hence are foil in the deck. Same holds for Japanese or Korean, I don't like the way most of them look so I stick to English and sometimes German (funny language that I can actually read). Don't forget, English is already foreign language for us Dutchies.

The nice thing about getting your PhD in philosophy is being required to speak every language since the birth of time. That's why my decks are usually Chinese/Japanese/German/Russian.....Ancient Greek? If you can read some Japanese you should be able to nit-pick out some characters on Chinese cards. Putting them together is the hard part :tongue:

Strudelpuls would be hilarious indeed. "Mahlstrom" is really uncommon in German, so I am surprised that they use it in this context. But the translation of modern cards into German (meaning everything after urza's) is in general really bad. Maelstrom Pulse is an excellent example. "Puls" is almost always associated with your heart in German any only used as a short form of "Impuls", which sounds clunky and has no real meaning in conjunction with "Mahlstrom". Long story short: It is not called Strudelpuls, because the translation is horrible. As a nativ speaker, I tend to avoid German cards, with the exception of German duals (white bordered only) and Force of Wills.

just started a second deck two days ago (yes, till now i only had one deck). this time everything in german foil. its a bit cheaper than jap foil i think, but harder to find. and making it rus foil will eat up all my budget, thats too much for me. will have to get rid of some stuff to be able to afford the last 15 cards lol -.-

nope, wont be gedankenwirbeln or gedankenformen ;-) ...will be something completely different, my current deck is already gedankening =)))
the jaces i posted (except the russian one) are not for decks, just for selling/trading

and the recall it not inked and has not square borders. it wasnt intended to be in that picture, i prepared it just for shipping it out^^

He didn't make the cut yesterday @ Legacy ... I like bringing him if I expect Merfolk. He was better when he used to not target. My board yesterday for that Fire and Taxes deck was:

2 x reb
2 x pyro
2 x seal of cleaning
1 x canonist
1 x the 4th revoker
1 x feast and famine
1 x e-tutor
3 x rest in peace
2 x kor http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f6/Firewalkerposter.jpg/220px-Firewalkerposter.jpg

IMHO, this thread should be renamed as "Random Legacy Decks / subpar deck discussion" thread because that is what this thread is all about 90% of the time. It's basically a waste of time scrolling through garbage, once in a while you see gems embedded here and that's it.. majority of the posts lacks quality, mostly same people talking about the usual crap.

I think the people that posted their stuff (myself included) don't really give a shit what some people see as pimp. Of course the test foils and Japanese foil Jaces are very hard to get, but most of us just try to make our deck pretty in the way we like it ourselves ;)

Sometimes there are gems. Its irritating that most of the new posts are the same few people jacking each other off and talking about random shit that should be dealt with via private message. I'm not sure why this thread isn't moderated like the rest. From the mouth of Sims... its the "pimp" thread not the thread of fucking idiocy. An unread post shows up and you click on the link just to find garbage instead of sweet sweet pictures. Its like showing up to the zoo after months of waiting just to find out they've replaced all the cool animals with furbys.

What? It isn't like we are spending all our time anticipating the next post on this thread. So what if there is a new post that you don't find pimp, it took you less than 5 seconds to check it out and no one is forcing you to continue looking at it. Regardless, if people stuck to traditional 'pimp' then the thread would just be updated less often, there wouldn't be more 'pimp' posted. Either way this isn't a meta thread so if those 5 seconds are that important to you and you don't like what you see then you are welcome to just spend your time at the other pimp threads on the internet. If moderation was your concern you should have pm'ed a moderator instead of shit post. I do not see how you can be upset.

Speaking of signed cards does anyone know if she'll do them at all / what Terese Nielsen charges for small alters on cards at events? I'm headed to GP Charlotte and a buddy was asking about getting his German Chokes altered to have Force of Will man being drowned in the vines.

Hey all,

I'm beginning a long project of pimping out RUG delver. The first card I got for it has already made this an interesting adventure. I picked up this Portuguese Force of will a while back and it has an unidentifiable signature on it. I asked a few dealers at a GP I went to but none of them were able to figure out who it was. Does anyone here recognize this signature?
