Congrats on finishing the (main)deck! It was awesome seeing it in person at SCG Seattle, even if I did lose to them.:tongue:

Okay I just spent some time figuring out what the hell that double printed text on the island is all about as I just received it earlier today. I think it's a case of the text image being tested before printing (ie different from the actual production text), but there is only one card whose text fits. Luckily for me since I want to play it in a storm deck, that card is lotus petal. :)

What are S Chinese foil so hot!

yeah i can see the text, it def looks like lotus petal. I support the Albino. I think that beta duals are nice and pimp but it almost seems like too many people have them now days. Maybe Im just jaded because i patrol this thread but its refreshing to see something more rare than beta/alpha

If anybody has any non-tribal deck requests (this is Legacy) I'll see what I can throw together. Maybe a CounterTop list next I think.

I think with the number of alters you have that Painter would be ironic.

I just ordered me a 20x set of 4th Korean path forest for my EDH deck. Didn't need 20 but it was sold as a lot. After I get a few more pieces altered maybe I will put it up. I went for english print for everything but my basics so no one in my play group would bitch about not being able to read it.

I have Japanese goblins I posted it a few years ago maybe it is time for an upgrade to Korean. Thinking of all italian for my solidarity so it matches my resets.

The albino sea is a favourite of mine, so I intend to include it alongside the summer duals. Besides, it's currently the most expensive card in the deck (and the only white bordered one). Is it better to go with two beta seas to match borders, or let the albino sea stick out like a sore thumb that is worth more than certain decks?

Am pondering this combo, or a similar one for the basics:

<Basics>

The island is one of the most screwed up basics I've seen, and I don't have/can't find a swamp that can live with it and which is legal for play. The swamp is likely a makeshift, the island is a treasure. I'll show you guys some other potential combos with time.

The drit and bs sets are also where I intend to go full misprint -- those are worth waiting for :)

---

I'll be honest, misprints may be the next level in terms of value and rarity, but I only know that because I follow this thread. I've never seen a misprint like any of those for sale anywhere I've looked, so I have no understanding of the level of pimp. Obviously beta is very pimp. Summer is ugly, but has an awesome story, and everyone has at least heard rumors of how valuable they are. Those misprints? It almost looks like you spilled acetone on the card.

Now don't get me wrong. No one is going to tell you it's not pimp, or that you can't pimp the way that you think is best. But if you're asking for my (our?) opinion, I would stick with Beta. After all, what's the point of pimping if no one knows how pimp you are?

That Island is really interesting though. I wish I could see it in person.

Nice work!

I'm working on pimping my goblin deck as well. Many more alters to come in 2014, so far I've got this.

That sea is very clearly not bleached, though. It's probably one of the exhibits to use when explaining why a card isn't bleached. The island's gloss and texture are intact, it's quite easy to see that it hasn't been tampered with. Maybe people will suspect something is up when they see textless duresses and misprinted drits and bs being slung around :)

More than happy to let you have a look at the island if you ever run into me.

Any chance you can share the rest of the deck?

:tongue:

I think Mirrodin was the last set in Traditional Chinese until M11 and Scars Block.

So, Vial is only S-Chinese. From before they changed the font, too.

Just wow, this Junddeck should have a good matchup against all nonfoil decks !


- Team RUG-STAR Berlin -

This is the Lands deck I've been working on/ picked up today. I'm only missing a few other cards.

How is this a deck? Lands only has one basic. This is more like an assortment of lands for a draft.

v. impressive guru.

I would play that :p
but what would be in the sideboard?

Either successful troll or next level troll. Can't decide. Fish you need 4x russian foil worldly council for your lands deck.

I slapped my head when I saw that post.

I was thinking maybe Prismatic Omen and Rude Awakening.

Ever heared of the guy that won a tournament with 4 Countryside Crusher and 56 Mountains? You could be that guy!
