[DO NOT TRY TO SELL IN HERE] Pimp Legacy Decks

I've been reading this thread for way to long and finally you guys starting to wear off on me. Right around the time of GP Indy, I decided for some reason it would neat to start working on pimp. At first, Russian cards caught my eye. Then after researching prices, I decided to work on English pimp instead. I've never been a huge fan of foils until I saw the foil FNM brainstorm. So now my pimp attraction has turned into a full out addiction. Since GP Indy, I've acquired the following foils for my RUG Delver build.

Foils I have:
4 Ponder
4 Spell Pierce
3 Misty Rainforest
2 Scalding Tarn
2 Wasteland - Player Rewards
4 Foil Textless Lightning Bolt
1 Unhinged - Signed
4 Delver of Secrets
3 Brainstorm - FNM, will upgrade to masques eventually
2 Daze
1 Spell Snare
2 Cunning Wish
3 Forked Bolt
2 Sulfur Elemental
1 Ravenous Trap
1 Mindbreak Trap
1 Krosan Grip - FNM, like the artwork better
1 Mogg Salvage
1 Dismember - FNM, like this artwork better
1 Surgical Extraction - Box Promo, also like this artwork
1 Price of Progress
1 Ancient Grudge
1 Pyroclasm
1 Batterskull
1 Angel's Grace
1 Birds of Paradise
1 Thalia
1 Crop Rotation
1 Thopter Foundry

Some of these obviously aren't in my RUG list, but I couldn't resist picking many of them up at the prices I received or the trades I got.

Here are Foil cards I'm seeking atm in case anyone wants to help a brother out:
1 Misty Rainforest
2 Scalding Tarn
2 Wasteland - Player rewards
4 Nimble Mongoose
3 Tarmogoyf - good luck amiright
1 Brainstorm - FNM, got a local guy who is supposed to sell me one
4 Stifle - either artwork, prefer the DCI one however
2 Spell Snare
1 Daze
4 Submerge
1 Flusterstorm

LIke I said, thanks to all you guys for fueling my new found obsession. I plan on acquiring or purchasing most of these at or prior to GENCON, with the exception being Tarmogoyfs. I will be waiting to pick up the Goyfs until last along with upgrading to FBB duals as White Boarder cards make me feel dirty.

I'll post pics once my project is complete!

If I were running green, I would have probably played my three crimped Beta Savannahs. Yours is most likely one of them, though I don't know for sure.

Examples of each:

I think the River Boa was indeed S-Chinese but in a nicer font before they changed it to blocky. I could be mistaken.

Both Chinese cards on the picture are in T. Chinese.

Korean = T. Chinese > Russian > German > Swahili > Japanese > English

For awesome T. Chinese I like old brown border artifacts. Like Smokestacks and Tangle Wire. The font was pretty thick and they just look angry. :mad:

Pics didn't turn out great and don't do them justice, but my Russian Foil playsets of Emrakul and Mutavault are finally done.

Shout out to hukstor (Adam) for some help :wink:

I really hope those are being played together in some Descendants' Path brew

Who cares about stupid champs vaults...these russian peshteras are the shit to go with!

I care about Champs Mutavaults :wink:

Nice Emrakuls and Mutavaults! I know you've been working on them for a while and it's nice to see the sets finally complete. I should have a few foils coming in a week or so.

Never saw a Russian Foil Emrakul before, and cant even find 1 on all the shops over here, really impressive to have a playset of those !
Could you say how much you paid for the playset? sth like 150-200 each? pm pls if you dont want to tell, and whoever sold him those, pm if you got more :D

Those feel like they're 400 each, but I could be wrong.

-Matt

I just want some non-foil Emrakuls to pop up somewhere. :frown: I think the Timmys of the world horde them.

Agreed. Building Sneak Show and I found a set of Show and Tell and a set of Sneak Attack before I found a set of Emrakuls :(

Although SCG has Japanese foil promos for the same price as English nonfoil... might have to jump on those.

QFT, even though Show & Sneak are more expensive I've had a more difficult time tracking non-foil Emmy's locally. Every LGS around a 50 mile radius is sold out.

very wonderfull emrakul foil rus, and mutavault foil rus (i m Alessandro(farang), i remember one of that lovely mutavault :tongue:)
i hope soon post my ur-delver if i ll find other 2x goblin guide foil rus and 2x scalding tarn foil rus:frown:
