And some cards I bought during GP Ghent. The Islands and Plains ended up in the deck before the first round started :)

Re: [Bragging] Pimp Legacy Decks
Chimaera,

Re: [Bragging] Pimp Legacy Decks
@ Matt: He unfortunately went 1-2-3 drop, due to 0 blindflips countering stuff and losing to burn twice :(
Re: [Bragging] Pimp Legacy Decks
1-2-3?? This is why friends shouldn't let friends play Countertop.
Re: [Bragging] Pimp Legacy Decks
Hehe, he really loves the deck tho ;) I would post my Nic-Fit but i'm still lacking a lot for it to be really pimped out, and posting BUG again would be useless :P

Deck looks awesome though
Re: [Bragging] Pimp Legacy Decks
As long as you're styling, it doesn't matter if you win or lose.

Well, this thing called variance is not really something I can control. I won almost all my game 1's, but then lost the second due to variance. Imagine not drawing a single answer/threat after 5 fetches + Top in Play and brainstorms. That's just unlucky.
The deck is awesome in testing and I just love my counterbalances. Entreat is such an "oops-i-win" card which the deck really needs.
Got some compliments on how the deck looked though :)

I wanted to get alterations as well, but he would only do it on Sunday and at 10 am he refused to take "any more" cards to alter...
Re: [Bragging] Pimp Legacy Decks

Deck is indeed awesome, mad props on pimp stuff.
..Altough, you do realize, now that you came so far, you will need to upgrade your brainstorms, fetchlands and counterspells. Just don't break my heart and say you love the ugly new DCIs :S

I wouldn't call 3 draws and 2 losses 'unlucky' or 'variance'. Seems your deck just isn't fast enough and/or your sideboard(ing) is bad if you lose all game 2's.

They have been altered by a good friend of mine, his name is zerzab11 on TheSource if you want to contact him.

I love my special foil brainstorm... from GP Amsterdam. That's why they won't be upgraded. Fetches I prefer Onslaught, but they're very hard to find and I do like how DCI looks. Counterspells are awesome due to art + flavor ;)

There not hard to find...hard to find under $120 maybe. I remember when they were $15 or so when the rotated from standard.

I posted above that I already got rid of the extras to one of my friends. :/
Re: [Bragging] Pimp Legacy Decks
Some pimp I picked up at Grand Prix Columbus;
http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/...6/scan0003.jpg
Kind of a shitty scan, but this one's foil. I have trouble resisting German foil, and for once my wallet agreed.
http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/...6/scan0004.jpg
Not Legacy, just hilarious. (It's not miscut, apparently my scanner is just disagreeable these days.)
Oh, and I got one of the uber-sexy playmats (via a deal with Fry).

5 Euro each for both Velinov or Kopinski. If I knew how cool they'd turn out I'd get a lot more :)
Re: [Bragging] Pimp Legacy Decks
Turns out the only camera I have is on my phone, so these are pretty poor quality. I'll try to describe them in case you can't tell what something is:
http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h1...yx/HTtides.jpg
Miscut w/ bottom sheet showing (hard to tell w/ white sleeves), purple ink misprint, then two top miscuts
http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h1...yx/HTcombo.jpg
Japanese Spirals, Candles, Japanese Turnabouts, Japanese Meditate (only one in pic, have two more), foil BSZ
http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h1...xyx/HTdraw.jpg
All foils - Cunning Wish, Brainstorm, Ponder, Merchant Scroll, Preordain
http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h1.../HTcounter.jpg
Foreign FoWs (Italian?), foil Flusterstorms, foil Italian Pact, foil Snap
http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h1...xyx/HTland.jpg
Foil fetchlands, one foil French Misty Rainforest, 12 foil Ravnica Island
http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h1...Tsideboard.jpg
Sideboard all foils - Brain Freeze, BSZ, Japanese Turnabout, Intuition, Ravenous Trap, Wipe Away, Hurkyl's Recall, Echoing Truth, Snap, 2 Surgical Extraction, 2 Defense Grid, Pact of Negation, Flusterstorm. There's like 4-5 other sideboard cards that are foil but this is what I had sitting in the deckbox.
