It's funny because almost every German would trade his cards for the English equivalent without any hesitation.
and every jap would trade theirs for eng. It just seems that everyone wants cards that aren't their native language.Quote:

The one Arabic card they did looked so sick. I wish they'd continue that.

also german is considered more pimp than english which results (most of the time) in slightly higher prices for german cards than for their english equivalents. no one i know would generally trade german for english.

"Craptalk"...yeah, that makes a point. I'm sorry if your peer group doesn't go with the general trend but unless it doesn't matter English staples like FoW, Goyf etc. will always sell higher than German ones. Only by a slight margin but it is in existance. I'm not talking kitchen table Magic players that want their cards to be in the native language.Quote:

Whenever ~ deals damage, search their library for an artifact and exile it. Until end of turn, you can play that card.
