Posting is whatever. You can always ignore them. But going through a bunch of effort, spending money on the not-dual lands is just a poor use of resources. The duals are the things that have skyrocketed. New Year's resolution for you people, instead of putting spinning rims on the 1997 Hyundai, upgrade the Hyundai first. Just bite the bullet and do it. Your deck will look much nicer and impress people more than jap stoneforge and revised tundra, or foil bob and revised badlands.

This my end of the year pimp update. It's my elves deck. It's by far my favorite deck to play and I put my heart and soul into finishing it. I started playing Legacy around a decade ago and from the start, I knew I wanted to play Elves. It was fun and I was a high school student with little to no income. It was no where near tier 1 back then. Back then, it was an all-in combo deck with Summoner's Pact, Emrakul, and Grapeshot as the finishers.

Over the years, I slowly upgraded my deck. I took a break for a few years during college. When I came back, Elves became a whole new deck. With the new legend rule change which made Gaea's Cradle insane and the printing of Craterhoof Behemoth, Elves was finally good. I have a little more income now since graduating college and I upgraded from English nonfoil to English foil, and then now it's almost complete as Chinese foil.

So, here's the deck:

I plan to get almost every card altered eventually, so if anyone has any alter ideas, let me know!

When this deck is completely 100% chinese foil and altered, i'll probably work on simplify chinese foiling a vintage deck, career and/or future wife permitting :P

I don't like crimps if only because they're impossible to even pretend to verify. Unless you open it in a pack, you have no way to know whether that crimp is from the pack or from a dude with some pliers. At least with mis-cuts, the people selling NFCs tend to be obvious or just admit it.

Anybody know where I could buy some FBB from an online retailer? I've been looking at the High end FB group but I'd prefer just to buy. I'm also a little uneasy sending someone a bunch of cash without any guarantee.

Just ordered a bunch of Beta duals from hareruyamtg.com (http://www.hareruyamtg.com/). Their store is located in Japan but their prices are comparable to the 3 biggest retailers in the US. The duals they have in stock were in excellent-near mint condition so I took advantage. Will post an update once I complete the project in a couple of weeks.

I might get rid of a couple of German FBB duals, they're in mint condition, what exactly are you looking for?

As long as it's double sleeved with opaque sleeves, you can prolly get away with it. There's a non-zero chance that it gets noticed on a deck check.

To each his own. I bought a Miscut Badlands from him for the price of a blue dual. It's absolutely gorgeous, I love it. You prolly have seen it here (http://www.mtgthesource.com/forums/showthread.php?4607-DO-NOT-TRY-TO-SELL-IN-HERE-Pimp-Legacy-Decks&p=870561&viewfull=1#post870561). Although, the corners can use a little improvement. If the guys cutting these were smarter, they'd use a 2mm heavy-duty corner cutter. The corners will then be perfection. In case they see this post and their quality improves in the future, I deserve credit.


I still have no idea why Eli's proxies (oops sorry "miscuts") are allowed in tournaments.

Because they're real cards? And while in sleeves, you couldn't tell the difference between FC and NFC. Unless the card was done confusing as fuck, there's zero reason why L2's wouldn't allow them. Having said that, I'm still not a fan of the 4-way miscuts with a big cross in the middle.

How do you explain prerelease promos (the older ones, not from the prerelease packs over the las few years), release promos, game days, buy a box, judge promos, MPR promos, gateway promos, apac lands, euro lands, certain test prints, etc being perfectly legal for play. I'm not saying I agree or disagree with them, but they are at least interesting and would be a lot of fun to play against a deck full of them (as I have a few times).

Highly inspirational. I'm trying to complete OG Ghost Dad in german and Mizzix/Niv-Mizzet/Melek in Japanese non-foil. Japanese is a lot easier to come by. I'm also totally tempted by Russian for Ghost Dad as well.

So here is my WIP: my Anfenza EDH. I'm trying to foil it to the maximum. This is my only deck of MTG at the moment, so I want to make it look really nice. Everything is foil, and there is some promo (and excluding the KoR) because I think the art is superior to the original printing. I'm also 11 cards short of it being full foil. So here it is:

Yeah, gotta thank you again for the cards you send me =). The bayou will be upgraded, but I just traded almost all my cards to acquire some expensive foils, so I don't have much left =/ But it'll be done. And as for the gavony township, yeah it's the sleeve that's signed, I just didn't change it ^^'

Can confirm they are A++. Shipping to me from Japan is usually in 4-5 days (some US sellers can't get their act together to do that), great condition, and great selection if you enjoy the moon-runes. I purchase from them about 2-3 times a month.

I found the last foil I needed for my Vintage dredge deck so here it is in the current build.

First we have the most important parts, the non-foil lands: Bazaar of Baghdad and Undiscovered Paradise. The latter has good value with recurring Bloodghast.

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/22284908/mtg/vintage-dredge/20160110/nonfoils.jpg

Following on, here's the rest of the manabase: 4 Petrified Field, 4 Mana Confluence and 1 Dakmor Salvage. I'm using Mana Confluence because Tangle Wire is a thing that can happen. Dakmor Salvage is in there to dredge just in case I didn't have a land to get the Bloodghasts back. Petrified Fields regrow Bazaars.

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/22284908/mtg/vintage-dredge/20160110/lands.jpg

Next there's the power behind the deck, the dredgers.

I prefer the MM art for the Imp and I prefer the M11 Leyline art. The Guildpact Leyline art doesn't even make sense for a leyline. And the MM Imp artwork just looks closer to an Imp. Nowhere is an imp depicted like the Ravnica art.

I actually forgot that mm and RAV had different artworks; All those Dual Decks etc. made me confused. That makes sense then.


I personally love the GPT Leyline, but understand your position. Now the deck just need some slight moderation regarding the creatures, spells, lands and you're done!

Why not plug? I have been looking for some high-end cards and had asked on this thread for advice. I had received some good advice but ended up finding a store that had a lot of cards I haven't readily been able to find. I thought it would be a resource for people somewhat uneasy about buying via a FB group. I'm simply trying to be helpful on the related topic of "pimp" and where you can reliably purchase these cards. Also, I thinks there's a difference between plugging a large franchise and sharing a positive experience with a hobby store. Moderators can correct me if this is not acceptable.

Personally I find the MPR Wastlands to be the best pimp version. Old frame, nice quote. I find that there is a certain elegance to the old frame foils that the newer ones are missing. Sure some of the newer foils have great aesthetics (especially those with fire and/or lightning), but they don't all mesh like the old school foils.

I saw plenty of people with pimped decks and FTV cards, and they just turn me off, i dont care if you can afford a beta manabase, if you fetch it with expeditions fetches you suuuuck

Hehehe. (Yes, that is the whole reason i quoted this post.)

Summer Magic duals look like crap compared to FBB duals and yet I bet you consider Summer duals >>>> FBB duals in terms of pimp, right?

Summer magic are extremely crisp.

Obviously, in case you prefer black boarder, FBB > Summer.

Those 7th Edition foils are gorgeous (and really hard to find)

This reminds me of a pod deck (pre Modern banning), which had a playset german foil 7th Edition BoP. So far, I have only found a couple of those in a good condition.

If you have a legacy manabase full summer you probably could fetch a real tropical island, so i have no right to mock you.

Still i had the cance to get beta manabase but i play FBB instead because i prefer it (the main reason is that i shuffle like a mofo and i know i will eventually bend them and hate myself).

I used a commandline tool called sips (https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man1/sips.1.html) to shrink them 50% (and maintain aspect ratio). You can use the tool too if you use OS X, otherwise there are a bunch of other tools available.

Don't get me wrong, I love the command line, but imgur is way, way easier. Just upload and click on the link for big or huge thumbnail. It even includes bb code.

What's the thought on slightly offset frames on high-end cards? I'm buying a FBB Underground Sea and have the option between 2 SP cards: one card has slightly more ware but is centered, the other has less ware and is slightly off center (same price). Thoughts?

I'd probably go with the nicer condition one unless it really bothers you. Magic cards were never perfectly centered then, so it doesn't strike me as particularly out of place.
If the difference in condition is marginal I'd lean towards the centered one though. Regardless, after a week of playing with it you'll barely notice anymore.

So yesterday I had a chance to buy an Expedition Ancient Tomb for $130. I thought about it long and hard, and I still might get my playset, but I'm undecided as to whether or not I really want this version of the card in my pimped out MUD deck. The only other foil option is the FTV Tombs, which aren't exactly worlds better, but I have to say that the Expedition Tomb underwhelmed me a bit in person. The foiling process looks too uniform, like the card is just washed in foil, and the art is a little hum-drum.

yeah I don't get the whole "expedition" thing. Sure the pictures are beautiful, but the frame really doesn't fit, the foiling is on the same level than FTV, and it isn't truly full art. I opened one and I'm keeping it, but just wainting for the prices to rise and sell it.

I'm in the same position. I can't make up my mind. My guess is they will become more expensive as time passes, but yeah the Ancient Tomb is so... un-tombish. We also have the problem of City of Traitors, which I'll never be able to afford in foil assuming I can find them in the first place.

Yes, the art might be nice, ok, but it's not the original art of the ancient tomb. At least FTV tombs have the original art.

I don't mind the boarders that much, still better than the present boarder... most of pics suck hard and the foiling is awful, the Strip Mine is the only one I actually like

regarding Tombs the only acceptable printing for me is the original which goes well with Cities

for me it's really about the Sea which looks much better in german than other languages due to the reddish colors imo, I haven't researched if it's a matter of the whole set and how other duals look like next to each other ... if you've already started by french and prefer it, condition is the parameter

Italian was printed first, I believe then French, then German. The printing in German is essentially the same process they used to print 4th Edition, while French is almost the same as well. The Italian ones still use the old tap symbol and aren't as vibrant. I also find that there is a slight tactile difference in the way the card feels sleeved, but that might just be me.

The thing with Expeditions is that they are just a cashgrab by wotc, creating artificially scarce promos for the sole purpose of selling more packs. Basically people think they are 'pimp' because wotc says so. The value of traditional desireable cards comes from their scarcity (specifically foreign cards) and how the different typeface looks. Not to mention that the border looks gaudy and the design isn't a true full art like the champs promos. It isn't like other promos that are made as a sort of payment to judges or for attending an event of some sort. Its probably their policy to milk expensive reprintable cards through repeated promos before any widespread printing, I mean Wasteland has gotten what, 3 promos already?

Word. Hardly consider them pimp. I actually thought these were all proxy printouts for people's cubes lol. The major turnoff is the janky yugioh sticker at the bottom.

I would go for the Tempest version with your favourite foreign language. The only factor to choose Expedition version of Ancient Tomb / Wasteland is if you prefer new borders or <> mana symbol.

"Foreign" black bordered dual lands were printed only in Third Edition, so you have to choose between German, French and Italian. Korean dual lands would be amazing, unfortunately Korean first basic set was 4th Edition, when also Portuguese, Spanish, Japanese and Traditional Chinese were released.

German, italian & french are the only languages, there is no other option for FBB. No dual is available in russian or japanese or korean in general.
Just english ones like alpha, beta, unlimited and revised.

Everything between Odyssey, Invasion, Onslaught and 7th. The layout is the same between those series and those are old bordered, can be foiled and those are found in Japanese. Plains version 1 from Invasion is pretty nice for example:

Unhinged, unglued, zendikar, bfz and expeditions are a mismatch in any deck due to their lay-out. Those lands are not ugly per se, but those lands stand out too much imho. Old- and blackbordered is what i like.
A lot of times i use 4th BB Japanese Signed. Sometimes Urza's Saga. Mountain, Swamp and Plains are nice from that set. Other times Eurolands, but not being Japanese is annoying.
On the other hand Japanese Eurolands... funny.

So final word on the new expedition lands: not pimp if you can obtain other versions (like Onslaught foils or the like)??
Is pimp in the eye of the beholder?
Or is pimp a direct translation to value in terms of money?
Personally i don't care for the latter.
Also i don't care for expeditions because;
A. They mismatch
B. They are foil
I am just as happy with a language matching onslaught non foil basic.
You want to play expeditions and feel pimp, then sure it is pimp.

I use only invasion basics and I chose that art for my plains. I have a few of the other one mentioned as well.

those are beautifull plains, and i started to play at home with pre constructed onslaught deck, so some nostalgia about that plains, i think i made the choice !! thank you all ;)

On the subject of basics, I'm looking to get foreign versions (Chinese or Japanese) of crappy nonfoil 7th Edition and Invasion basics.

I've looked on Ebay and foreign retailers' websites but have only found a few. I have also found a few more digging through landboxes at game stores, but that doesn't seem like the most efficient way to do it.

As someone not well-versed in buying obscure foreign cards, where else can I look?

Got you covered man (at least for Japanese).

Invasion: http://www.hareruyamtg.com/en/c/cINV-L/

7th Edition: http://www.hareruyamtg.com/en/c/c7ED-L/

Hareruya is where I get most of my Japanese basic lands. Otherwise I sometimes buy lots on ebay (they are rare though).

ps: my junk and jund nic-fit are lacking 1-2 jap lilis and 3 fbb duals, it's almost unethical to post pimp decks with rv duals :frown:

Also, my jap lands are missing only 1 more fbb taiga and I'm done, so pretty pictures incoming soon. :wink:

Thanks Dice_Box! Yes, that's true. And being beat lowers the price, so there's more money for more beta cards, which is also nice xD
Jet and Emerald will be the next moxes to arrive (I know I should start with sapphire, but when the price is good and you can make the deal in person you have to take it)

Wayne was awesome. I'd say his must have vintage / legacy cards are Worldgorger Dragon and Stony Silence. He's responsible for some of my favorite terrible cards to play in Legacy like Enlistment Officer, KotHN, Tidal Courier and Words of Wilding. I'm also almost never a fan of anything other than original printing, but his Ghostly Prison is an exception. I was fortunate to get all my stuff signed before he died. Words of Wilding is some sick art and flavor.

Yes, to any dealer they would be considered damaged. The only way to move them for anything above a DMG/HP price would be eBay or player-to-player which would still be difficult. That said, if you plan on never selling them, go for it.

I'd say it's safe if done well, dealers won't like it, but if you sell to dealers you're losing money anyway... you're limiting your options for sale for sure, chinese is the worst language for Recruiters and a cheap versions exists, that's something to consider... Personally I can't stand WB so if I was deep in Painter I'd do that, I would not be afraid that I couldn't sell it eventually, players usually liked my BBed cards and I had no problem selling my Grim Tutor (a card of similar obscurity) counting in the BB costs...
