[DO NOT TRY TO SELL IN HERE] Pimp Legacy Decks

[santeria]

basic mountain though? you don't need to cast those bolts... you need a basic forest if anything

yes, on occasion. its often more handy to be able to burn things on an opponents turn than it is to not be able to cast a creature on their turn.

maybe those are Edgar Summer basic lands?

no, they regular unlimited lands. they are white bordered for two reasons. one being they are they only white bordered cards in the deck. so when I fetch, it makes them much easier to find. and two, its easier to keep them seperated on the table during those long drawn out games.

again, beta basics are like $2 each, I could have them if I wanted them, its a matter of personal preference. the same thing that causes half the arguments in this thread.

Well, I did see someone play a fully whitebordered Noble Fish deck in Hanau's Vintage tournament last Sunday.

That was Harald David. I have to say it looks quite decent in white sleeves, but the imagination that he spent hours with a few rolls of Scotch tape and a eraser to white-boarder his cards like Goyfs, Fetches, Null Rods etc. still gives me the creeps somehow.

Lots of mail has come recently. Too much to post pics of. Well... not really, but I am lazy so only 1 pic for today. More will come later this week. Anyway, here are some of the fancier things that have recently arrived.

how much was the foil jap elspeth?

[Otter]

Does anyone have even the slightest clue who I could contact about obtaining Urza's Saga basic lands in Korean? I have quite a few in Chinese and I love them, but I'm looking to upgrade. I've scoured the internet and sent some messages out to folks, but nothing has come up yet. It's funny that if you're looking for the good cards and staples in Korean, usually someone at least has them listed if you're willing to meet their price, but nobody bothers with basics and it makes it a bit difficult.

edit -- though really, if you know of any Japanese or Chinese ones, I'd snap them up in a heartbeat too

@Andrew77: Very nice cards, I'm not sure what or why it is but those cards look absolutely gorgeous. The scan definitely did them justice, and how hard were those Tops to come by?

[DownSyndromeKarl]

how much was the foil jap elspeth?

"One-Million-Dollars muahaha"

I'm sure it'd sell for ~$150, but hey, what do i know?

I know what you are talking about. I'm trying to build a complete korean set. I've already got cards like BoP, Crusade, Mox Diamond, Factory and stuff, and some (un)commons, however I haven't managed to track down any basic land. You'd think some people should have to have some laying around..... There are only 15 different ones.... Got to catch em all.

very nice sea
much more difficult to find in this condition than any of the other japanese foil !

[yawg07]

Haha, man I need that Entomb for Sharuum.
Also, I think Japanese Foil Elspeth is like ~95-100

How do you figure?

Without counting each picture in each set, there are 20.
4th, 5th, Tempest, Urza's Saga

I have a TON of 5th edition Korean basics, like 200+, and Korean 5th is super rare, I just got lucky lol
Unfortunately it is WB, no big deal, nothing some fluid acrylics can't fix.
But as far as the others go, I have some assortment of them.
I have a lot more Japanese Urza's Saga than Korean, same goes for Tempest and 4th.

The most pimp is Japanese Mirage anyhow, it is the hardest to come by.


Ah shit, didn't mean to double post, I left and came back and forgot I was still actually in the same thread.

.

4th 3 lands
5th 4 lands
Tempest 4 Lands
Saga 4 Lands

I was only counting each picture of 1 type basic land though :) It should be 75 basic lands (like I said, I want to collect all Korean cards).

[Occam]

its a matter of personal preference. the same thing that causes half the arguments in this thread.

This is true. I don't really have a problem with most cards. Having stuff to see > not having stuff to see. I never really was enthralled with Japanese cards though, probably because I didn't do so well when I studied the language :(

On the bright side, I tracked down people willing to sell several nice cards that I needed, including that pesky foil Saga bolt. On the not so bright side, my new dark ritual set is stuttering. I thought I had the two hardest ones, but the damn foil european ones ......

[yawg07]

Sorry, Atwa that's right, 4th was 3 pics.
Even so, if you need some Korean 5th ones I got em, and I may have some others.



My newest baby, ohhhhh he is SO CUTE.
Anyone who has ever played against a deck with THIS in it knows it's only real purpose.

If your dick looks even remotely like that, I'd start calling some doctors, bro.

[DownSyndromeKarl]

cylindrical? check. one eye? check. 4/5? check. quickly retreats at the sight of blue mana? check.

EDIT: by 4/5, i mean that four out of five dentists approve.

[Gibsonmac]

that is one tastey sea... tendrils are hot too

[andrew77]

Thanks for the complements guys
Anyway here are some answers to the questions asked.

@wmagzoo: the std weren't that hard to come by. I am looking for some pretty hard to find korean cards as well as jap foil delta's atm so in my search for those I come by a ton of other cool cards.

@yawg: the entomb is actually going in my sharuum deck. You should post your list somewhere though

And since there was a lot of talk about korean I just had to get a new scan up. I love korean cards and have been working on picking up most staples for a while. Still need a city of traitors to finish my playset though. After that I can post korean stax.

[yawg07]

Damn I used to have 3x signed Korean Mox Diamonds, that is sweet!


This came in my mail today, ZOMG
