Is pithing needle 10th edition in foil considered pimp. I'm wondering since its about half price of kamigawa, but maybe that's how it always is with original series vs. later ones?

Generally that's the rule, unless the original art is contemporary and sucks. See Ponder for example. Any other version looks better than merfolk titties

Hey there folks,
This week in Super Secret Tech, a sweet Legacy deck back from 2009 to make lots of friends with!

More pics of white and prisony cards, as always, here. Enjoy!

Photobucket has restrictions for posting now, so none of your images are viewable! Try a different company like Imagur or similar.

I really feel like the original art is superior, not because it's the most aesthetically pleasing art in a vacuum, but because it's what a Snapcaster Mage looks like. It's the best version because it looks the most like a Snapcaster Mage, if that makes sense. In the same way, I think the MM art for Tarmogoyf is a lot prettier than the original FUT, but a FUT Tarmogoyf is what a proper Tarmogoyf looks like to me, and for that reason I always play those. Same with Wasteland, I absolutely love the art on the EMA version, but I play with Tempest because that's looks the most Wasteland-y. Well, that's my jam anyway. We all have different reasonings for our choices, and iconicness scores very high with me.Quote:

Tried finding Grr's images on Photobucket and even the pages on their site don't let you see the content.

Pictures seem to load fine on their blog though strangely enough

Damn. Thanks for warning me folks, if someday I manage to sit down in front of my home computer again I'll try to fix it :/Quote:

With that I'm also picking up Japanese shit for White Eldrazi. I'll try to post something once I have the deck together.
Hey, new to the thread. Been having fun checking out the previous pages, lot of cool stuff posted.
Anyway, stylized my legacy burn deck a few months ago. Took a while, but i'm pretty happy with the results. I know burn isn't a legacy favorite, but it's definitely fun to just relax sometimes and just throw some bolts at the face.

I did that with my UR storm in Modern too (when I was still playing that format 1-2y ago). My basics of choice were Starter 99. They are WB already but the ink on the pictures has somethingQuote:

Inninstrad snapcaster for sure because that's an actual person there. I don't really like when they do new art for people's invitational cards. The guy MADE that card, you know? It should be the OG art for all eternity and reprints.Quote:

Well, seems they want to move away from that as all the invitational reprints got new art.Quote:

Anthologies.
So I was browsing this thread on the toilet like I always do and saw Occam's world premiere deck post from 2014... Except all the image links are dead by now.
Any chance I could still find it somewhere? Has to be the most insane thing in the thread, right?
I'm pretty sure anything Occam posted belongs on magiclibrarities. His posts are insane

Just started downgrading all the beta I have in decks and in cube. Gonna work on getting some power for the cube.
Well I'm on this journey again! Heh.

I'm not really into foreign cards and I know a lot of you don't like icky standard card foils, but I couldn't resist picking this one up when I came across it.

Hi All,
Not sure if this has been discussed before since this thread is quite long. I am working on altering out my legacy deck, BG Turbo Depths. I have gotten a handful of alters done. The utility lands were done by Revelen's Light (I will have them probably do my other extended art alters). My snow-covered lands were done by Marta Molina. The Llanowar Wastes I'm not sure who did it. Does anyone have recommendations for alter artists? I specifically could use a recommendation on some one who does great 4 seasons alters. I'd really like my Crop Rotations and maybe Elvish Spirit Guides altered to be 4 seasons. Let me know your favorites! Thanks.

Also, how do you all embed images here? The image function isn't working for me with regular image hosting websites...
The links you have there are not to the actual images.Quote:

Klug Alters is the best, no contest.
There's a gentleman named Kyla (d/b/a Scourge Alters on Facebook) who did some of my dual lands and he did a great job (and they've passed anal retentive judge inspection at competitive REL). I'd recommend checking him out, he's done a lot of really good "four seasons" type of alters before (there's a guy here who has a completely foil altered chinese elves deck and I believe Kyle did all of the work on that).

recently finished my Legacy D&T, there's some random fringe sideboard cards missing but I have everything for building a traditional/mainstream list now
Finally settling on a new deck after the Top ban ruined Painter...
