Hello, here's what I've got. I've been playing GW for more than 2 years, and almost every iteration (way back with Vial) has been all foil. Here's what I played to 5th at the SCG Legacy Open this past weekend.

Sorry about the quality of the picture, I just wanted to get it up here so I could link it to my tournament report.
Actually not even half that much. 3200 Beta rares each were printed.Quote:

None of my cards are visible and the unsleeved cards in the bottom right where part of a list we had put together at his place which I did not end up playing ...
The donor does not follow TS afaik and as everybody enjoys pictures I thought I could make a quick shot before giving it back tomorrow.

Have a TON of new stuff to post but still taking pictures with my Iphone for now. Figured I'd go ahead and post this since he's getting a bit of hype and didn't get banned....so far.

@ Impulse
In some weird way, I want someone to steal your Gaddock Teeg deck divider so I can have this conversation:

Everyone else: pimpin'. I'm going to the GP tomorrow, and I'm hoping to pick up some nice things, and play some Beta Cube.

Impressive, got just german foil and looked up korean foil, i only found 1 on ebay and not 1 more wherever i am searching. Is one of them really 150$ and more ? :eek:Quote:

I'll try to be at the next major Legacy thing in the States, and if you're interested, you're in :)

F shiny. Long live dark black borders, circles and lines, the language of anger and funny Cyrillic characters.Quote:

Cuz it's the best!Quote:

I usually go Japanese foil but in this case I had Korean reanimate, exhume, and 2 show and tell. Decided to go for Korean this time.
1 Korean show and tell on eBay now. =)
They started doing it again recently with M11 (?) for Taiwan and Hong Kong but it's not nearly as boxy and liney.Quote:

as opposed to Simplified Chinese more loose, has serifs if you want to compare with western languages.

This is where I always confuse the two. I mean S-Chinese in the old Serif-style fonts.
The Korean stuffs posted as of late is pretty gorgeous. Congrats.
The real question is: skip class and go to the GP, or stay, do the class, THEN go to the GP (I'm talking about GP Vancouver)?
-Matt
That isn't even a question, Matt -- obviously there will be other classes, but there will not be other GPs (often).
T-Chinese ONS fetches are sweet. S-Chinese is cool too.
matt, dont be dumb. Skip class screw vancouver.
I mean, I can't skip to go to Atlanta, like I have a test on the weekend, but I'm seriously considering handing in my essay then heading straight to the convention centre :smile:
Screw perfect attendance! Plus, lugging around a 40 pound duffle bag around the school with a long coat on makes me look VERY suspicious. VERY suspicious :P

@Matt
100% in whenever you decide to do it. (assuming im there)
BUT IT BETTER HAVE A BIRD... :mad:

I finally completed my Beta dual land playset. It took quite a bit of time and effort, but all in all completely worth it. Now to decide what my next project is.

In my opinion, that's seriously about as good as you're going to get in this thread. Beta Power is nice, but a full set of Beta Dual Lands is ridiculous.
True that. There isn't much that is better than a beta playset of each dual land other than a complete set of 36 alpha duals, as alpha duals are ridiculous in terms of price and quite hard to find despite the lack of volcanic island.Quote:
