True, but since he's counting out of 10, I'll allow it.

With the rate at which you buy beta island duals something as powerful and sweet as a lotus should be a bargain. Isn't a minty sea $3,000? Lotus >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Sea

It's rare for a single card to really stand out in this thread, but that Meditate (which I can only assume must be a misprint) is sweeeet.

I like UNL Duals and they are certainly better than washed out Revised Duals. I mean I guess they are technically the lowest scale of "pimp" that a Dual can be, but it's better than nothing.
Kinda makes me wanna upgrade my Duals.

What is everyones opinion on mixed languaged pimpness?
Basically I completely foiled out my legacy elf deck (well, as much foil as possible, so stuff like Bayou isn't foil). However, I want to make it S-Chinese foil, but some cards like Judge Cradles and Judge Natural Orders can not be chinese foiled. Is it pimper to keep them english foils or convert to chinese nonfoils.

The other tricky thing about S-Chinese is that it wouldn't look consistent throughout your deck. The typeface used on something like Wirewood Symbiote is very different than on Elvish Visionary, and you also have cards like Quirion Ranger that only exist in T-Chinese unless you want to go with the English foil.
Pimp is entirely in the eye of the beholder, though, so just pick what you think looks best.

Even old T-Chinese font (circa Visions) doesn't look like Destiny era font. So if you can't read it and are looking to match things in some aesthetic way even that fails. As far as non english, as has been stated a thousand times in this thread German has the best coverage. If you have a hard on for foils what's the point? You'll have a bunch of promos scattered in and out.
Edit: Technically Italian has slightly better coverage but Italian legends is ghetto.

You can use this (http://www.magiclibrarities.net/sets.html) up through Kamigawa block, after which for a long while cards were only printed in S-Chinese using the typeface you're probably familiar with. They resumed printing T-Chinese in M11, but it's damn hard to find modern T-Chinese cards in the sea of S-Chinese cards when most sellers can't tell the difference.

I was playing doomsday gush ... it's really easy to find your foil russian lab man to make the default herp derp I win pile when it's the only foil.
I'll get rid of it at eternal weekend or gencon but I want it to go to a vintage player and not some fuckhat who is just looking to flip it.
I may just fucking sign it now that I think about it.
Not Korean Foil Signed Lab Man, get outta here.

Hi this is my first post here usual I'm a reader, but now I'm so excited about my finished Pox deck that I want to share pictures.
I build this in a timespan of 2,5 years.

Probably wrong. Though I'm pretty sure a Chalice of the Void restriction is long overdue. A restriction would vastly improve a large percentage of the Workshop games (i.e. interactive) while retaining archetype strengths. Workshops is fundamentally a tempo deck, Chalice just puts it over the top and many times removes tempo from the equation entirely.

Okay, but it's only available in foil and in the M15 frame.

08-12-2014, 07:20 PM
M15 frame is no worse than the 8th edition frame. I like it more honestly as the text for the title is infinitely better. Nothing beats original frame or ever will though.
Lodestone golem is what should be restricted. Turn 1 lodestone is so damn oppressive and difficult to win through. Doesn't help that it kills you in 4 swings either.

There's a large number of very reasonable answers to Lodestone. If you take the time to think about cards within context it becomes very apparent very quickly that Chalice is the real problem. The entire premise of the deck is to gain tempo through "resetting" your opponents mana curve. The archetype as a whole pushes others to seek cheap solutions or those that can bypass curve restrictions i.e. Lighting Bolt - - Snuff Out. The fact that Chalice punishes opponents ability to jump the curve to things like Restoration Angel or utilize cheaper answers like Lighting Bolt, becomes completely broken within the context of Workshops as an archetype i.e. strip effects, resistor effects, and tap effects. There's a fair amount of low quality games that are entirely determined by the roll and CotV, similar to 4X Trinisphere era - it's lousy and it's got to go. That being said many of the BUg lists put out by Amadeus Kurz have a great Workshop match up and I think there's a lot of take aways from the strategies he utilizes.

That's your problem right there. Only overflow duals/fetches/etc should be used for formats like Legacy and <shudder> Modern. The shadow of my laziness is expansive (though I'm not so haughty as to rule out that perhaps yours could rival or exceed my own), but I'm still having trouble with the implicit primacy this situation places on non-Vintage decks in your household. Personally, I couldn't live like that. Out-of-the-box playable Vintage decks lying around have much greater utility to me than other sorts of decks*.
However, pretty much all my actual playing-mtg-time consists of nothing but cube/vintage/oldskool. It's a lifestyle choice, I guess. If Legacy and Modern get you off, then more Power to you (as long as it gets shuffled regularly).
*Except Enchantress, which doesn't need any justification, but since the most competitive long-term build is sadly not Vintage, I always have a playable Legacy deck in case I get the urge to play "fair" Eternal. Speaking of which: Pimp Dilemma, comments welcome.

I think G1 it requires some serious management, but in G2/G3, to quote the good Mike Soly, "Every card in your deck says destroy target artifact", makes the game somewhat manageable. My 99% was obviously not meant as 99 out of 100, as vintage can sometimes come down the dice roll, where shops are just insane (75-25 on the play, 40-60 on the draw etc), but I always felt extremely confident sleeving trops, volcs, bolts and delvers vs shops!

Of course RUg has better options than most but I still think it is not as good as you make it out to be and just because one tempo list has close to a 50% match up doesn't mean action should not be taken. Regardless I'm pumped that there's an online meta that's easy for WotC to quantify as it will provide a transparent foundation to take action as necessary.
Also quoting Soly makes my eyes bleed.
Anyway, being the PIMP thread I'll just leave this (https://www.flickr.com/photos/hellofablackhat/). If you like Korean cards I'd suggest a bookmark as I plan on uploading my entire collection once I stop being lazy.

The lotus is really beat and i've had it for 18 years, so don't get all mad, i don't want to hear it. Apparently Rush was super excited to sign it, so that makes me smile.
The Leaks are Korean, and the FBB bolts are in 4 different languages.

Can't tell super well from the photo, but one of the coursers is foil (for the cube) and all of the soldiers are foil, love that card. Just random fun stuff for modern and standard, and some cube randoms.
Got lots of other foils signed too but nothing worth showing really (not that this stuff is amazing)
No idea why i can't post just full pictures, i have before lots of times, but it seems every time i log into Flickr they have completely changed how it all works.
Not sure why they look so small either.

I have 2 extra t Chinese ... Signed though ... And 5 Korean :)
Annnndd I need a way to get those off you someday :(
Now that the full art Judge foil lands have been released, how has the Basic Land Hierarchy of Pimp been changed, if at all?
Have people come to a consensus yet?
They violate the rule of "No Promos" but they are also fairly rare and expensive. I am not a fully evolved PimpMaster. I cannot process this information without help.
Zendikar borders are ugly but the Terese factor gets a plus from me. I'm on the fence as well. I only really like the Forest too.
Edit: Come to think of it they're foil. I would never put them in my deck :(
The Forest would look great in the Unglued (NOT UNHINGED) borders IMO.

Actually pretty much every artist at Gencon was fine ... the Terese Nielsen line was as I anticipated, never worth it. Even worse doing short alters and so it never moved. The Argyle line also got out of control after Thursday.
One thing I will say is that over the past few years some dealers have lost their mind, when 90% of the con goers have phones with data plans you aren't going to sell an MP Bazaar for $500. You just aren't going to fuck some rando over. Some prices are just a waste of booth space, especially on commodity stuff like Modern Masters garbage, or just any plain old english foil you can TCG. It's not an SCG open or Bazaar of Moxen where there is one vendor on site.

I've bought some pretty harshly priced cards from vendors at events, just to use said cards in a tournament. Nothing too expensive, but just this spring I paid $20 for a Maelstrom Pulse when I could've gotten it for half that price from another player.

I don't know about others, but I was lucky enough to get many of my cards before they spiked in value.
Other than that, like any other hobby, you just really need to have disposable income (not having kids helps!).
For the rarer stuff, it's really about having connections and knowing people (I'm not claiming I'm in this group of individuals since the stuff I tend to like isn't that hard to find).

Disposable income would be an understatement for new legacy players let alone legacy players trying to pimp their decks. Its more like you need a small fortune.

If you notice most ppl in this thread are the same ballers that have been posting. There are not many new posters to this thread. Most have been playing for a long time. Some have hoarded valuable and trade those for pimp stuff. Beta/alpha duals are gonna be tour most expensive cards to find generally unless you ball outrageous like occam.
Play set of duals is like 5-7k now maybe. Beta duals are maybe 30-40k for a decent playset. Beta power is 10-15k. Foil fetch lands play set is 5-8k
Personally ive been playing since tempest but i was too young like 10, to realize the value or investment potential. I still made out like a bandit with minimal investment but paying 10$ for duals helps as does buying a lot of excess early on.

Unfortunately or fortunately depending on how you look at it, these cards really exploded in the last five years. I was able to buy in before these cards took off. The Modern format really helped quit a bit. There is nothing like selling shocklands and buying Beta duals.

Most of it you have to do yourself! Or if you ask nicely some people with help you with getting them. Usually if you do that it's nice to ship them alittle extra for doing it.

I personally hate altered cards unless they are by the original artist. They are automatically in poor condition if offered in trade. Altered and FTV I don't think should be able to be used to sanctioned tournament play either.

I'd probably call a judge on you to be honest. It's rather sketchy that everything that is not a land is altered and your lands aren't.
Decent alters though.

I have a difference in my lands and spells between foils and non. For example, foil fetchlands and FBB duals. There's also Lotus Petals and Lion's Eye Diamonds to mix up the spells. Having all thicker spells in your deck in comparison to your lands is certainly questionable.

Nedleeds, what pen/marker do you use when you have artists sign cards?
I use the Sharpie Bronze Metallic or Gold Metallic ink they don't splotch or run like full on paint pens and they dry very fast. I'd say they are subject to chipping is you sleeve/desleeve a billion times but if you are putting them in perfect fits that shouldn't matter.

I agree, the deck looks awesome, but I would make some changes so it has moar old border! (so it looks cooler:cool:):
Stifles (scourge foil) -> or if you really like JR's art, you can change to conspiracy ones, so you don't have the ugly DCI logo inside the text box
Wooded foothills (onslaught foil) -> those could have a lower price now thanks to the reprint
Lightning bolts (judge rewards) -> beta is a cheaper option, but I suppose that they must be foil

I just gave them to a altering guy here in Spain. He did it. I think there is no problem, I alaways care to say that my alters has to be inside the original card picture frame and its not an alter that changes the original card. So they can recignice it easy. A lot of ppl where playing never recognice its altered.

@mini: Japp, thats mine. Since then I gotten the WB cards black boarded :) If you found it on the old school blog then you might have seen my latest version, it was from Warcon.
@jandax: yeah, the problem is what to ask for it and also of they might increase in value again. I sold a sapp in may for about 500 dollars, today it would probebly be around 700-750. I don't want to make that misstake again :)
