I claimed the cop and the plagues sucked in my post, I know. Thanx for the additional input.

The signing thing is a bit of a joke.

The cop green is kind of a joke though. It looks so bad it was hard not to put it in just for random ugly duckling factor.

Overall I think we just share different taste. I'm sorry that your taste and deck design just isn't as good as mine :)

I don't really see Sea R Hill's post as being out of line. Your deck has a lot of unconventional choices as far as "pimping". And from your rebuttal most of your "un-pimped" selections are as a joke. So w/o knowing that it was a joke how would one come to that assumption.

For instance the 3 Masques 1 IA Brainstorm to me looks horrendous. Or the 3 IA, 1 Coldsnap Swords to Plowshares, or the 1 Promo, 1 Judgement Cunning Wish, or the white boardered core set stuff. It clearly wouldn't fall into the "I like X picture" argument, it would just appear sloppy. And I'm not saying that is sloppy to you, if there is a joke element to that and it pleases you to have unmatching play sets, more power to you, but I can't see getting offended by others saying that a deck running unconventional choices in terms of "pimping" appears to be not pimp.

I don't think he was being a prick, he seemed taken aback by a pimp deck that to an uninformed viewer didn't look very pimp.

I did not try to offend anyone here.
I agree that pimp has to be in accordance with everyone's tastes (for an example, I personally hate asian languages and foils). If your deck looks good to you, then it's pimped. But if you like specific things, you have to go to the end with your theme.
If you really like white borders (and I think white borders can look very good, especially in white sleeves), why don't you whitened all the borders of your cards?
If you like foils, why don't you foil every card possible?

And if you like that IA design, you also should own all your StP in the same set and language. It's better for the eyes and also for gameplay. If your opponent sees an IA StP in your hand with sthg like, say, a Thoughtseize, then sees you playing a Coldsnap one, you're giving an edge to your opponent by showing him you have multiples StP in your hand.

Today's Question:

Do you guys know some way to have a REALLY pimped playmat?

I mean, I'm currently thinking of getting one with the Guru Island's illustration... So, is it possible to print on a virgin playmat?

Btw, that portuguese Goyf... were you born with three kidneys, or what? How much does it cost?

Actually, it was only $40USD at GP: Chicago. It's fierce creased at the top from some idiot who owned it before me, and I didn't even realize it was Portuguese until I went to sleeve it later that day for my deck. It and the English are both called "Tarmogoyf".

This is my Landstill deck. The spell base is almost completely foil. I obviously run 4 Force of Will, but they are normal so I did not add them in the picture. I have some cards that are on the way ( I will update the pictures when I get them):

1x Wrath of God (Foil Japanese 7th)
1x Engineered Explosives (Foil)
1x Eternal Dragon (Foil Pro Tour)

After that I am going to start working on Black Bordered Duals. Preferably French or Beta. Here is the deck at the moment:

LOL - The other one is on it's way from Singapore - I wish it would hurry up! I used to have signed (slightly altered) portal wraths and I sold them to a friend of mine so I needed replacements. I bought 3 beat wraths from a vendor at the Conflux Pre-Release for $5 dollars a piece -LOL I told him .. I want the crappiest wraths that you got.. basically proxy wraths until I get my foil jap 7th. LOL

I plan to take a pic of the sideboard and stuff soon.

Well, that's what I was talking about! Very nice deck! Thank you for posting!:cool:

@ mossivo1986: Hang in there bro. My landstill deck looked like yours at one time. I recommend focusing on pimping the staples first. Like Brainstorm, Spellsnare, Fact or Fiction ect.. Because then when you move the cards to another deck it's automatically pimp. Like my threshold deck gets alot of pimp from my landstill (ie: Swords, Brainstorms, ect). Just some thoughts.

@ Magik321: You have so much Pimp! I always droll over your ebay auctions. LOL

@ Sea R Hill: Thanks for the compliment. It has taken some hardcore trading and a little moola to make it happen. Some of this stuff (Jap 7th Foil Wrath) is just wicked hard to find.

http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h1...alContract.jpg

My collection card. Got a normal japanese foil one (slightly miscut) to replace my square corner japanese foil piece. Currently missing Italian and Spanish Foil. If anyone has them let me know. S-Chinese Foil is incoming. Will post new scans when it arrives.

Other cards in the Infernal Contract global set includes:
All the Artist Proofs signed
All the Salvat versions including English
Most of the non Foil versions (mostly missing Spanish and Italian ones)
20 English Foil pieces, of which 4 are signed.

@jmedina: I was kinda lazy not to ebay another batch over the past week or so. I should be ebaying another batch of japanese foils and non foils this week, probably Thursday :) I'll try to get some scans up. I'm already half done witht he scanning of the cards

You should just skip ebay and send me a sale list every week! LOL I will buy some stuff. :)

Whienot --> Nice one. How much did he take for this one?

Cool cards out here :) Although I'm still not really into the whole asian thing, never will be :P That's propably because English is already foreign for me :) It's a pity though, that not all series are in Russian, because that's totally wicked :D

3 Jap foil thoughtseize and 4 alpha swords to plowshares

Jap Foil-What deck are you building?

Hopefully DORAN ROCK~

I've just picked up a portugeese Lion's Eye Diamond. How much do you guys think it's worth?
I have never seen any for sale, so it's really not very easy for me to figure out, and I thought this might be the right place to ask... Also, are the portugeese ones more rare than japanese?

Thanks in advance.

- meanee

Needs moar japanese Sea Drake.

Shit, you're telling me. It's not even the cost of drakes that bothers me, it's that foreign ones are tough as hell to find. I had an offer on a set of germans but the guy wanted $200 for them.

I saw 4 germans for like hmm, 80-90 euro or so, pm me if you want to know where.

I never seen a japanese sea drake thou, they most be impossible to find...

There out there.I saw one on ebay go for $125. That was about a year ago.

I hope gunslinga posts a playset of japanese drakes just for shits. I'm sure he has them.

If you guys would actually search ebay you'd find them: http://cgi.ebay.com/MTG-2X-JAPANESE-...3286.m20.l1116 this is $129 for 2.

http://i12.ebayimg.com/08/i/000/ff/b0/2c8c_1.JPG

I bought my japanese sea drakes at $40 from a dealer with 10 of them.

I sold a portuguese LED for $2 more than an english one, there was little interest in it.

I posted my playset of japanese drakes and other stuff page 70 ;)

Used to be Frenger's, btw.

Very nice A/B stuff jap_foil!
A/B Duals are always awesome and the Alpha signed StP are especially hard to find if you want them in Exc+/Nm condition.

EDIT: pm me if you want to get rid of those ugly StPs. :wink:
