I thought about getting original foils, but to me pimping is all about what I find good looking. Judge Deeds have the better art and card border for foiling, imho. I don't like the old multicolored frame. Other old borders are superior, and hence are foil in the deck. Same holds for Japanese or Korean, I don't like the way most of them look so I stick to English and sometimes German (funny language that I can actually read). Don't forget, English is already foreign language for us Dutchies.
High5 for someone else who also likes non-Asian foils! (Although I do recognize their value)Quote:

Some even speak Canadian, eh?
Yes, I do recognize the value of Japanese foils, but I'm only really interested in English, German or Russian. Russian is too hard to find and impossible to fully foil out, though.
oh it is possible, just takes some time :-)Quote:

Russian Undead Warchief FTW! Are they for Vial Zombies?
Just ordered a German Phyrexian Dreadnought off of SCG. Im not very knowledgeable, but I feel like 15 for the German one while the English one was also 15 is a good deal.
Yeah ... I'm going to upgrade them in Vial Zombies ... that deck was a beating last week. Can't believe he lost vs. DnT ... is there any interest in a post with Powervialzombies pictures? Before I disassemble it? :confused:Quote:

But "Mind pastry" is a new one: Gedankenstrudel!
Mind Pastry with a Sundial on the side.

Mind Pastry. Wonder WTF it means in Korean? Anyway Psychic Vortex is reserved list gold just waiting to be broken.
New package came today with 4 Shardless Agents, 4 Fragmentlose Agentins, 4 Polluted Delta, 1 GroBeres Wohl, and 1 Zerzauste Heide. I'm pretty pumped.

The nice thing about getting your PhD in philosophy is being required to speak every language since the birth of time. That's why my decks are usually Chinese/Japanese/German/Russian.....Ancient Greek? If you can read some Japanese you should be able to nit-pick out some characters on Chinese cards. Putting them together is the hard part :tongue:Quote:
