It's not bad. I would grade it as EX+ because of a ding at the top.

OK, this thread is inspiring. We all have our own likes as far as foil / language etc.

My rules are as follows (and to each their own)

- No foils, they look like something you'd find in a YGO pack (not that I've opened up)
- Language: I like the communist or former communist languages
- Chinese, Russian
- then some other languages are fine German is cool, I'm not big on Japanese
- Korean is cool where available
- If plain old Beta english is available then it trumps all (except duels ... I sold a full set of 40 betas 5-6 years ago and only had my FBB left :( )

So here's what I have together this week ... Treva Beatdown

First the lands ... where would we be without them



My wastelands fail ... I'll be hunting for cool wastelands at gencon. Or I may get some of my 12 normal ones altered.



Weapons and weaponsmiths ...



What's beatdown without dudes



Things that save my dudes and kill their dudes



Tentative Sideboard



Anyway, so many cool looking decks here.

[Purgatory]

I'm not a fan of foils, so having a deck all-FBB is really cool to me. Also, those duals are amazing, nicely done!

Yeah, I dont get foils either but it sure makes tricking out your deck cheaper. I'd love for WotC to start doing non foil old border versions of new cards. That would be pimp. An old green border Tarmogoyf.

Also another caveat is FBB is cooler for everything *but* legends, IT legends is go gross even italian dudes hate it.

then you get those, like me, who hate foreign and love foils

I mean, not to sound too philosophical but ... 'whatever floats your boat'. I understand why people like foils, but I started playing in 1994-95 so I'm old school. Foils belonged with Pokemon and YGO in my opinion, I also hate most new art and like the older less anime, more abstract art (maybe not to Stasis level but). Also, unless we get From the Vaults: All 10 Duals you'll never be able to completely foil out many decks anyway.

My boat is foreign non-foil and beta / legends / antiquities. I also used to have a ton of signed stuff, I regret selling it off years ago (along with my beta / alpha duals :( ). I like signed as well.

I think it's the fun of collecting and assembling whatever 'floats your boat' that defines pimp. I'll be at gencon and all my trading time will be hunting down odd foreign stuff.

I second this.
Your deck is nice but the languages seem very random and some card are too beat for my taste.

I found a link on my computer to an album containing an incredible amount of amazingly artist altered cards which belong to an Italian collector. I saved the link years ago and thought it might be worth sharing.

pimp = money

rarity = money

foil = rarity and money (over same non-foil item)

got it?

Those Mana Drains are sweet. As for having different languages, I don't mind. I prefer Chinese, German and Russian. I don't really like Japanese. As for condition, that's what happens when you play with them for 15 years :) You should have seen my Alphas and Betas they were destroyed, having been played un-sleeved for years (sleeves weren't legal).

Quite a homoerotic car. Gratz, you win a thread.

[PanderAlexander]

I could buy every deck in this thread over for the price of my car.

I love the IS-F, you have an amazing car, but if you say you can buy every deck in this thread with that car, then you truly don't know the price of pimping in legacy. There was a single deck posted by grandeur pages back that was worth over 10k alone, and combine that with other crazy decks in this thread from Occam, piZZero, andrew77, Bryant Cook, Sdematt, etc etc then you'll see $58k won't cover them all. Btw your deck is nice, I'm in the same boat with non-foil foreign.

Do you actually OWN the car, or are you leasing it? Because if you don't own it 100%, then that doesn't really count.

I think you are right, and the thread is 264 pages long. We might be up to a GT3 pretty soon, there are some awesome looking decks.
