Really nice cards!
About the confidants, both are nice, I have the promo ones because I love foil old border cards, but the ravnica one is also cool.
I'm always wondering why so many people play M10 ponders, Tedin's ponder is amazing!
Why do you play those foil hymns, but play alliances fows? It doesn't make much sense. And I guess the Sylvan Library will turn into Legends some day :tongue:
Sweet deck. I'd go with normal bobs over promos just so all the creatures have the new border, but I know everyone here likes the old border more (I like the new border but whatever).
To the guy above, I'd never begrudge anyone for not having foil FoW's in their otherwise all pimp deck just because they're stupid expensive, far more than any other card there.
Random question, are there any ungraded Summer duals? Or have all of them been shipped off to BGS?
there are quite some ungraded summer duals floating around..
Check Facebook groups, think I've seen a couple on the high-end group but I may be thinking of something else
I play the M10 Ponder because from the day the Lorwyn Ponder got printed I found the artwork super ugly :tongue: But yes beauty is in the eye of the beholder.Quote:

The Hoover Hymn has a better picture but isnt foil and I like the new artwork too, so I play them. Working on getting them signed.
The signed legends Library will be coming for sure, I had to buy the 2 Lilis currently but hey german black boarded is not that bad :tongue:
Thanks for answering. I understand the alliances fows, I don't like the judge promos. It's just that I would play hoover's hymn unless the whole deck was foil (when possible), and seeing that fows are alliances I would have no doubt. BTW, I think Staples signed a few weeks ago in England, check some signing facebook groups in case you are looking for hard to find signatures.Quote:

Solid except that's too bad about those bends :frown:Quote:

I have a bunch of desiccant packs from electronics that I throw in my boxes with foils. That, along with tight packing, tends to keep them flatQuote:

I had some foils pressed by a lot of weight, inside a book for a few days, but that barely worked.... once the foil metal-ish layer has deformed, you cant really re-form it...
The curving is due to humidity, so id assume if you store your cards with silica gel packs it would help.Quote:

i might have missed the discussion on this but why are the new foil fetch lands considered full art and thus demand a huge premium? They seem to have about the same picture as a regular card with a minimally transparent text box that still obstructs the image? I don't own any and maybe in person the image is better but pictures sure don't do them justice.
you could say that that foil JTMS pictured above is about as full art as the scalding tarn but i've never heard of jace referred to as full art... Maybe this is just WOTC shenanigans?
Expedition lands are better in person though I was as skeptical as you at first. I personally own 42 of those and work hard to get 100. However, it's quite hard to get them at a bargain price.
They're all hype. Can't hold a candle to even Judge fetches, much less ONS ones.
German tundra's and mixed volcanics? :frown::frown::frown::cry::cry::cry::cry:Quote:

i would onestly feel bad about a board with 2 FBB Volcs and FBB tundra and a Nutella glitter fetch, but who am i to talk, i play khans polluted because i like the art :rolleyes:
