Still short of 1 delta. The list needs to be shorn of 1 crit and 1 petal. SB might get reworked as I don't like swarm and carpet that much -- need to fit a bayou in, potentially YPs. The pics with normal stuff and misprinted stuff is just to show what comes in for the normal stuff. For instance, miscut foil brainstorm replacing jp foil brainstorm.

Makes sense to start off with my newest pretty, the signed rit below. Didn't include it in the deck because it is signed -- still considering on that. The other drits are shifted, upside down back, lightly printed and yellow hued respectively.

The idea was to only use stuff which either isn't a magic card or which didn't have P/T. The Rathi Assassin was the only textless card I used, didn't bother with UD ones. Just lost out on one of the holo dragon whelps, which would have become a token too.

I hope we blow the tops off some members here. That's our goal, right?

Occam, every time I see that swimming man guru, I think it's a stampless. Lovely deck; happy to be a part of the making.
ps. If you find a replacement for the mana coins, I got dibs.

Thank you, and I see most of the questions have already been answered. 5C cards are hard to validate because they are basically stickers. I got mine off a fellow collector, so pretty confident about its authenticity.

The splatter cards aren't really valuable, just pretty sweet. Seems apt, since a combo player mainly plays with himself /generalisation

Not sure how this thing can actually be played, to be honest. Graded stuff can't feasily be cracked or thousands in market value get flushed down the drain at once.

I picked them up at around a hundred for a set of 5. I've asked folk who deal with this sort of thing, accessories and whatnot, and while these do come up from time to time, they are apparently quite rare. No idea if that is a real reflection of their value. In any case, I can't currently cast a threshed crit with the coins I have right now anyway.

Some goodies and EDH stuff:
http://www.fotos-hochladen.net/uploads/imaget7a3bnlymr.jpg

I like your foreign languages cards like russian, chinese, etc., but I decided for myself that my personal pimp are consistent decks (Non Foil, same edition of a card, same language, try to use one frame if possible, black boarded except for duals because Beta duals are to expensive for me). Because all cards are print in english I go for this language. :tongue:
So most of my Legacy Pool is english, therefore I am not sure if someone is interested to see a picture of Full 40 fetchies or 27/40 revised duals. I think this is very common for you and not real pimp in the eyes of many people here. :smile:

But I will post this, because it's a Full Set and it tooks me a lot of time / work to get there and maybe anyone like it as I did. :tongue:

Hey guys, thought I'd share what I've been working on. BUG Delver with bottom row being sideboard. Trying to have a Russian/German theme, I think RUS looks amazing. If it's available in RUS it goes in, if not then it's GER but I may change it to Japanese later. I'm still missing RUS/GER fetches and GER FBB bayous.

For a deck named tusk post that regularly can ramp up to 5 mana easily that deck sure lacks Tusk.

Edit: would love to see someone get blown to shreds by Bane of Progress. I thought that card was going to be an Elves SB staple. I forgot MUD is about .5% of the meta.

Tough. But also fair. I could cut a mage maybe ... but they are pretty good. I'm not cutting Krosan Wayfarer ... if only because Emrakul / Karakas infinite time walk and just attacking your opponent to death 1 point at a time is too strong. Also why is a Wayfarer a Wanderer in German?

Do it. Turn Thursday night Wu DH into 1v1 throw down. Everyone pay in for some sweet EDH card as a prize. That isn't foil. And isn't English unless it's beta or Arab. Posting EDH is a solid pain in the ass ... I guess I can post my Maralith.

Here my pimp decks.

Good looking decks overall, but IMO those cards should be upgraded to pimper versions:
Brainstorms FNM -> Mercadian Masques FOIL
Burning Wishes JP -> Judgement FOIL
Chrome Mox DCI -> Mirrodin FOIL
Flooded Strand DCI -> Onslaught FOIL
City of Brass MM -> Junior Super Series for FOIL, Arabian Nights for regular
Sensei's Divining Top FTV -> Champions of Kamigawa FOIL
Duress M10 -> Arena League Promos or 7th Edition FOIL

Also TS Foil Gemstone Mine looks much better than the promo one.
And by the way, no sideboard?

06-04-2014, 03:11 AM

Wow, aren't we mister opinion? I like the b. Wishes and the moxen (have a set myself, like them a lot more). I like the direction onslaught fetches as I like fluidity and since they aren't likely to print old border zen fetches, this is awesome. I prefer the mm CoB, then 8th, then 7th, then AN, and the rest is junk. Duresses are whatever. I don't like any of the art and as a common, who cares? The only people who really care are the ones with 7th ed and that's only because of obvious reasons. Brainstorms are also whatever, mine are Japanese IA Colds nap precons, idk why, I just really like the picture and they spoke to me. The tops are annoying but it doesn't mean that they aren't pimp. Mine are Japanese non-foil and two more English I altered which I also enjoy. Just because you dislike a version doesn't make them "not pimp" or "less pimp" even. Overly critical much?

Most "pimp" is not subjective. What people like is subjective. There is a level of "pimp" that is/can be agreed on by majority of players.

Here is a guide that I think a lot of people can agree with.

Basics (in level of prestige):
Summer > Guru > Arabian Nights Mountains > Foil Unhinged > Beta > Apac/Euro/etc. > FBB > MPR > Foil Zendikar > etc.

Duals:
Summer (mostly unattainable but here as a placeholder) > Beta > Alpha > FBB > Unlimited > Revised

Fetchlands:
Original Onslaught Foil > Zendikar Foil > Original Onslaught > Original Zendikar > Judge Foil

All other cards:
Beta/Alpha (if available) > Original art black border (ie: Kird Ape) / Foreign version (korean, etc) > Original Foil (STP/Wasteland) All languages > Original non foil black border (Karakas, Dreadnought, Show & Tell) > Judge foil > FTV foil> White border

What I wanted to say was that there are much better versions of those cards if we are talking about serious pimping (and not just "don't criticize my cards because I like them!")

Secretly.A.Bee

06-04-2014, 03:41 AM

Well the edit was a nice touch. This isn't just about "most pimp." Recently an all german/russian nonfoil list was posted and was received warmly. And then this reception. Neither are "most pimped" but one received several positive feedback statements and the other got junked and picked apart immediately. Just looking for a little forgiveness. This thread would get a post a week tops if we had to live up to the standards you just subjected the last deck to. Just saying.

Would you guys consider a totally fucked up burn deck as pimped? I mean: ugliest white board mountains, random Bolts and all cards not better than in "good" condition. I guess I goes into another direction but I think such a deck could also have "style". (List should be nonethless solid and not casual)

It was posted here not long ago... I mean about few hundred pages back. I consider Fat Kid's Sligh a very pimp deck, with only "buried for a month in my backyard" Dredge to be a bit better.

Good looking decks overall, but IMO those cards should be upgraded to pimper versions:
Brainstorms FNM -> Mercadian Masques FOIL
I like this brainstorms cause was the 1st foil I got. I have on MM foil in my vintage deck. (this could be upgraded but are the 4 cards I have played more in my live)
Burning Wishes JP -> Judgement FOIL
I like this cause it remebers me to the gerudos of Zelda game, I also wanna alter this playset so it looks like twinrova wins.
Chrome Mox DCI -> Mirrodin FOIL
I dont like the other, dosnt look like a medalion, its like a mercure ball. This versión looks more like an real mox.
Flooded Strand DCI -> Onslaught FOIL
Thats true, But I had this. Now I wanna change the onslaught deltas for dci and cash because so all my fetches will be in same border.
City of Brass MM -> Junior Super Series for FOIL, Arabian Nights for regular
I like this because so all rainbow lands have same border. Could be 8th edition but its almost the same.
Sensei's Divining Top FTV -> Champions of Kamigawa FOIL
I got them cheap, this should be upgraded that true. But kamigawa sensei are not cheap at all right now.
Duress M10 -> Arena League Promos or 7th Edition FOIL
I like this cause it remember me in his manner to hellraiser.

Also TS Foil Gemstone Mine looks much better than the promo one.
And by the way, no sideboard?
Side borard is not pimp right now. Its on the way, I have the chain of vapors foil but I have not xantids, carpets, massacres, dread of night, decay (62€ for a foil english right now LOL). So I prefered not to show.

I think the pimp depends on what you like. OBV If I wanted to make the most pimp it would be all foil japanese. But prices are too hight.
MY ruling are:
Foil japanese
Foil english
japanese
German (duals and cards of like 4th edition that are not on the above)
rest...

I think if somebody white bordered acetoned an entire Wal-Mart Burn deck, with Fire and Lightning everything that can be Fire and Lightning'ed. With matching shit Fire and Lightning foil mountains, shitty foil m10 lightning bolts everything, shitty new bordered foil shit for a shit deck. Then put on overalls, threw a dip in, and got some pics ... that would be pimp.

06-04-2014, 11:11 AM

I understand what you are saying, and it's true, that's why I said that those are good looking decks overall.
About the german/russian nonfoil list, I think that for people who doesn't like foil but like rare languages, it was really pimp, as those cards are not easy to find, and there was consistency in the deck (all the available russian cards, and the rest in german).

Agree. It also differs by country, I mean good spargel is hard to find in Atlanta ... but probably easy to find in Germany. I also bet a good plate of bbq pulled pork is impossible to get in Munich. I'm sure in Siberia my Russian Signed Emrakuls are blech.

In the US I can just go buy 4 foil Ravnica or hideous Judge Foil Dark Confidants at 10 different sites with a swipe of a card. I can't buy 4 German Dunkler Mittvissers or 4 Russian Confidants signed by Bob Maher and Magic Johnson. But many people think a Foil English Dark Confidant is more pimp than a signed Russian one. I don't. I can have 4 foils in my mailbox in 2 days. Good luck finding the others. It goes beyond aesthetics sometimes and starts to become a dick swinging contest (which incidentally ends when somebody like Occam throws a fistful of Summer duals down). I'd even say japanese foil has become blech SNIP because japanese foil is all over US eBay.

Unsigned vs Signed card
This one is the only truly subjective category IMO. Some dealers do not like them, some do like them. Some people consider signed cards "destroyed" and/or "ugly". Others covet them.
I will not rate them because of that.
Same with altered cards.

Edit:
Added FTV foils

Had to add my 2 cents. Bold = where I think it is. strikethrough = where you placed it. Just as a side note I prefer decks that match language and foil / nonfoil. I just wouldn't mix Beta Swords to Plowshares and foil Stoneforge mystic, for example. Make both foil, or none!

My preference is non foil, black border English, earliest edition. Looks good, new folks can read it, no issues with warping. Sadly those duals are beyond my reach, but it is what it is. Love to see it here.

I am looking for non summer, non guru basics though. Tired of full art. Any suggestions on a basic by basic basis?

I can't stop laughing at this, telling the guy who has everything you could every want to play magic with, all black bordered, foreign, and signed that he cant "afford" a Jap Foil Fetch. I am 99.9% sure that Russian > Jap in terms of being able to find and overall aesthetics.

I'm of the same opinion on English promo lands, but I'm partial to the older textbox design - leading me to the APAC lands (http://www.magiclibrarities.net/49-rarities-apac-lands-english-cards-index.html), which are a great alternative to the Euros depending on your preference.

Blue for the Island, Swamp, and Plains. (http://www.magiclibrarities.net/49-rarities-apac-lands-english-cards-blue-booster.html)
Clear for the Mountain and Forest. (http://www.magiclibrarities.net/45-rarities-apac-lands-english-cards-clear-booster.html)

All of the Plains are fantastic though, that's a tough choice.

Power 9 are all over ebay too so what are you trying to accomplish really? How often can someone afford to pay for a Japanese Foil Polluted Delta? Stop bashing asian foils if you can't afford them and convince people that cheap german/russian cards are uber pimp.

This is supposedly the PIMP thread, if you don't like foils, GTFO!!

Lol. Or you can ignore me instead of crying. Foils aren't magic cards, I could buy all the weebo fetches I want but would have no use for warped marked garbage. At least foil German, or foil Russian here in the US is slightly original, jap foil is pretty trite.

Or you could continue to alienate people by calling their collection of Magic cards warped garbage. I don't think I have any further use of you.

If I wanted to circlejerk about foil Japanese I'd play standard. I don't hate new cards (love some new art) but old cards are sexy as fuck.

And yeah, expense=\=artistic merit. I could buy a custom knife with Moku Ti handles, a raindrop Damascus blade, and zirconium hardware, but that doesnt mean it looks like something more than pocket jewelry.

I not gonna ignore you...how else can I laugh at your asinine comments? I understand people have different opinions on what is pimp, but it's obvious that you cannot be nice. I don't think German or Russian commons are pimp, but I never said that players that spend hours searching for these cards is a waste of time.

As a quick side note, may I ask why those two languages are considered the least pimp? Is it because the text on cards sometimes is huge?

I remember when I was trading cards at GP Rio last year and players from Argentina/Peru/Chile despised my cards in portuguese, lol. Only managed to trade english cards that day. :frown:

I find it curious that as a portuguese speaker I don't find portuguese cards all that ugly, but absolutely hate italian cards (there's an exclamation mark on swords to plowshares, come on!).

Me too. It has two 9.5 subs so I deal with it.

PirateKing, I bought most of these in 2003 and 2004 when Magic cards first started being graded. All were graded 9 when I purchased them. Sometimes you can get good deals on graded stuff especially the stuff people want to play since some believe it's a hassle to crack a slab (hint: it's not). Some of my duals were graded and it's really easy to crack them if you know what you are doing.

Matt had his baggy. How many in total would be 114 if I'm not mistaken. I left some graded slabs at home on accident. :( My 6 hour trip in Seattle was a success. I believe Matt would agree as well, he's currently driving home.

So after 3.5 years, I'm done them Beta duals. I was at 39, but then why not buy 40 more all at once right?

But, the extras are off to a good home with Travis for some, and eventually Europe to others. Best part of dealing like this in a hotel? Getting a bagman. Remember, you don't negotiate, he's the bagman. /The Way of the Gun

Special thanks to the bagman and Travis.

That’s an insanely beautiful Alpha Mox Ruby! You got to love photos of a card taken outside of its protective gear, where you can see the texture and crispness of the card itself.

Bad Cards that are legends. The Ihsan's Shade and the Eron I originally got signed when I was in school and went to Origins '96 for Nationals. So I thought it would be cool to get them signed like 18 years afterwards to show just how fucking old I am.

Gratz for this nice ancestral. And don't be ashamed of the white border, you can always make an upgrade in the future. I think it was a good idea to start with the best card of the p9.
Yesterday I bought my last mox, a ruby, it will arrive soon. ATM I only lack the twister, at least it's the cheapest piece.. (but I have a time vault, which is more useful for me).

nedleeds

07-02-2014, 10:16 AM

Nice recall! Might be white bordered but it's pretty nice and clean. Worry about getting m0@r power first rather than BBing it. Plus you scroll for recall quite a bit so it'll be easy to find :p I'm thinking i'll get my beta double signed at Gencon, it's been a few years since I got the first signature. May go triple signed for my library just to be sure.

I think I prefer your High Tides and fetches, Feline. Have you discussed anywhere your current build (I.e. the counterbalance build)? I'm interested and would like to know more about it all.

Candelabra has great sinergy with top. You just send the ability of the top of tapping to the stack then turnabout and untap candelabra and tops and draw a ton fo cards and get a ton of mana :D

I would play both, but anyway deck is nice. Scaldings are hard stuff to get. Sended a mail to the painter, and never got answered >.<

Just to clarify, I know gRR!! in person, and he has signed candelabras.
In his blog he takes some decklists that he likes from local tournaments (+100 players, not small tournaments), and pimps them. This High Tide did top16 at a 137 players tournament.
It's sad that the blog is only written in catalan, but anyways, we all understand the pimp language :cool:

gRR!!

To be fair, I only own two signed Candelabras:

Maybe someday I'll go for the 3rd and 4th. Maybe.

Togores, I've sent some messages to Philip Straub too, with no reply. The funny thing is, he is following me in Twitter :/

About Feline's CB's build, just one word: Genius.

Loving the Pyroblasts. I don't know what pimp version of them I want.

Bigest problema about all pyroblast is that for having a cool ones they need to be White bordered. That just makes me really sad about...

It's taken me two years to find two mint copies. I'm picky about condition but Korean Pyroblast are rather difficult to find. IMO heavy miscut original printing or Korean.

Pimping an Eternal Command decklist. Interesting! I like it (:

Here is my take from the NYSE Open II . The Trini is altered by none other than Roland Chang and the Karn was signed by his biggest fan to commemorate the day, Nick Detwiler.

Past 30 days have treated me well. Hopefully this is a trend for the rest of the year.

Rev sol ring is printed twice. I think it's cool (bias;I like sol rings)
Something for you firefly fans.
And yes, French foil Delays.

Not nearly as crazy as the rest of you guys, but these recent pickups made me happy:

I've been after Deltas for awhile... lucky! I got other german foil fetches if you're in need.

picked up some more best Force of Wills mostly because I'm lazy and don't want to swap for vintage but it'll give me something to get signed at Gencon for Terese ....

Is laziness also the reason I've seen you cast force of Will about 5 times in the past year? Digeridoo Still and Esper Chimp Blade?

To be fair I've cast it a bunch in Vintage. I think in legacy the only deck I've played with Force is Doo Still and Esper Chimp Blade (msg me to work on this!).

if you ever held a gun to my head and forced me to play a deck as miserable as merfolk -- i'd fill the rest of the deck out with german stuff. German vials, dazes, forces, wastelands, caverns (?), TNNs, Jittes.
