You guys make me want to own a lotus... But I don't have a jawb D: .... Or money.... Or knowledge of vintage.
Power 9 is one if the worst things you can buy cause they don't increase in value Hardly. U need like 3k for an unlimited set of power.Quote:

Compare to beta duals that see play. Some time in the next few years a single beta underground sea will be worth more than a lotus. It is already worth more than an unlimited lotus.
Yes reserve list cards are a good store of value. But anything vintage I wouldn't expect to increase. My most disappointing vintage investment was bazaars. Think I got em for 130ishand now maybe worth 200. Had I have bought foil polluted deltas instead I'd have over 1k easy.
I mean, Alpha Fastbond is worth more than Revised Plateau as well; but I'm not not banking on Plateau seeing more growth. If you're viewing MTG cards as strictly investment vehicles, then you're wasting your money and time. There are much better stocks to invest. Buy the cards you want to collect (rather than invest), play with the ones you think are fun and cool to play with, and share your cool stuff!Quote:

Anyways, this is off-topic. Less financial talk, more pictures of hundred dollar bills please.
Well said Koby, and to get back on topic, mail time.
Still waiting on a bunch more.

Vintage players: why is ingot chewer. A "broken" card? I've had a lot
Of vintage players tell me so, and I have never understood.
Btw, is anyone going to NYC Comicon? I need Adi Granov's signature on a Playset of kiln fiend, and if
Possible an artist proof. I can only contact his agent, so no pity emails worked, and I
Know a lot of you happen to be sig-whores, so I figured this would be the place to ask.
Cheap artifact disruption who gets around spell.pierce for one. If.nothing else.late game you get a 3/3 who eats an artifactQuote:

So you don't j have to pay extra for the evoke cost? What about three ball?Quote:

The search is finally over.
It gets around Thorn of Amethyst, but not Sphere of Resistance or Trinisphere.Quote:

Warning ... ugly CoB's and proxies.
Sometimes the Chewer goes Lockjaw and just beats the crap out of a bant player with a hardlock vs. your dredge deck (RIP + Cage). Like last night @ Sunday Night Vintage ... Get there doggie! Get there!

Exactly! Foil Copy Enchantment is way easier to acquire than Korean Foil whatever. And you can just print the expensive stuff, right?Quote:

And here is my very own playmat. And as I figured out I shouldn't just post the playmat I threw some Duals over it... fair enough?

What did you pick that source mat up for? I have heard some pretty outrageous offers floating around.

That is the jankiest Zoo deck ever. I would hate to lose to it too.
Janky like a rabid tiger with chainsaws for hands ... on fire ... with AIDS ...Quote:

Still disappointed that you did not include Skullclamp and name the deck Snap Clamp Wizards.
For the wizards deck, what card it's that to the left of trinket mage?
