Hawt?

I'd rather pay more for this then I would pay for a summer hurricane.

Why is the "All Rights Reserved" written in French and not German?

Is that actually a legit misprint? If so, that thing is amazing!

[Occam]

Damn you. I need that card for my dark ritual set. I've summer and the playtest ritual. I just need that :(

Anyway, it isn't a real card. Some call it a test print, but it really doesn't fit the traditional definitions of a test print either. Everyone saw the waldfeens posted by Amy Weber on eBay? This is of the same ilk. Thinner cardstock, divergent pictures and cards. Worth quite a bit, but not even 10% of a summer hurricane.

If it's for sale though......

Nev's disk was actually based on the Warlock's Wheel in "The Magic Goes Away". I just read it recently!

I definitely could be wrong here ! Could you pm me a link to the article or whatever paper you read that in ! That sounds intertesting

.... and yeah, this DR island looks awesome, too bad they didn't do it with black borders^^

[jimirynk]

This might be a dumb question but are there foil miscuts?
If so post some.

[TOGITwill]

Just picked up a foil german signed Meddling Mage from Planeshift. I'll try and post a picture soon.

[jimirynk]

Two newest cards for my EDH deck.

[Skeggi]

You play Dwarven Soldier in EDH? I take it you expect alot of Orcs?

I'ts for the pimp value i know its not a high tide.

I would like to see someone post a more pimp dwarf.

[MMogg]

Well, there really isn't a definitive ruling on split/miscut cards (as in which part is the true card). For tournaments, I'd confirm it with the head judge and just bring along a regular High Tide to be on the safe side.




Speaking of Mana Vault, I too have a Japanese and a German. I'm looking for Chinese one. If anyone wants to trade, let me know. Please and danke.

Actually, there is (at least one posted on DCIJudge-L): "A card that has two faces counts as the side with the name showing. A left/right miscut counts as the right side, a top/bottom miscut counts as the lower side, regardless of how much of the card is showing."

[Anusien]

It's worth noting that the higher-ups at Wizards of the Coast and the Judge Program are now saying that cards that don't have a black or white border aren't tournament legal. Will keep you all posted.

[ramanujan]

What does this imply?

Are the modified full art cards now no longer tournament legal? Are severely miscut cards no longer legal?
Will miscut cards need to be bleached on the side where another card is showing in order to be legal?

I am pretty curious to find out the intent of thier position.

[Julian23]

Never really got why people liked miscuts. Ok they're rare but being "pimp" reaches far beyond that point.

I believe that the thing which makes something pimp above all else is cost. The most pimp is almost always the most expensive (Korean vs judge Intuition???). Miscut (and crimped) cards tend to be one of a kind and therefore more rare. The more rare, the more expensive, and therefore more pimp.

I personally love miscut cards both for being pimp and because they are really hard to find. When something is too easy to find it isn't fun to collect.

[MattH]

If you ask me what I find interesting to put in a deck, it comes down to how difficult it is to find, NOT how much it costs to buy. I am not at all impressed by foils for that reason, or foreign cards - I could go on ebay tonight and buy them if I so chose. But finding a miscut card, or a test print, or an altered-art card that looks hell of sweet - you can't just do that whenever you want. Some cards like that may well be the only existing copy!

So that is why I couldn't care less about korean foils or whatever, but I love miscuts, even when they're not worth nearly as much.

This doesn't really have anything to do with what is or is not "pimp", that's a meaningless word to me in the context of Magic. I don't really care if my cards impress you, because when I try to make a deck look good, I have a very limited audience of one.
