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

[Whippoorwill]

For nitpicking's sake, I'm almost positive Gemstone Caverns was an Invitational card, though I can't blame you for forgetting about it (offhand, I can't recall anyone doing anything Magic-related with it that was more than a pipe dream/god draw).

Not sure if it counts as the "god draw" clause, but I think Flash played it.

Yeah, Flash played it so its god draw could kill you on the draw during your first upkeep.

Here is my deck for Indianapolis.


3x PDS:F&L Grim Lavamancer (plan to upgrade to Torment foil in the future)
4x ZEN Goblin Guide (1x foil, 3x nonfoil)
4x ISD Snapcaster Mage (3x foil, 1x nonfoil)
4x ISD Delver of Secrets (4x foil)


3x ALL Force of Will
3x ZEN Spell Pierce (3x foil)
1x MMQ Daze (1x nonfoil)
3x M10/M12 Ponder (3x foil)
4x MMQ Brainstorm (1x English foil, 1x Japanese foil, 2x nonfoil)


4x PDS:F&L Chain Lightning
4x PDS:F&L Lightning Bolt (plan to upgrade to Judge foil in the future)
3x PDS:F&L Price of Progress


4x ZEN Scalding Tarn (4x foil)
4x ZEN Misty Rainforest (3x foil, 1x nonfoil)
3x ONS Wooded Foothills (3x nonfoil, plan to upgrade to Judge foil in the future)
2x Arena Island (US art foil)
1x Arena Mountain (US art foil)
1x US Mountain

Not pictured is one Wooded Foothills and four Volcanic Islands. I am getting a Judge foil Wooded Foothills from a friend before the event and have to borrow Volcanic Islands for the event. Also not pictured is the sideboard. I'll make it on site, but I do know it will include the 4th Force of Will and 4th Price of Progress. All in all (as far as main deck is concerned), the deck will have 7 cards that cannot be foiled, 12 cards that can be foiled but aren't, and 41 foils.

Very nice!

My deck for Indy:

(shows foil Chalice of the Voids and Trinispheres just to make you rage, Solaran )

But in all seriousness, VERY nice deck. How expensive are the Arena Us art lands? They're gorgeous.

$3-$4 each, unless they got insanely priced since GP: Pittsburgh.

And once I start reacquiring dual lands (Power > duals, so I traded my duals into Power), the same artist who did the Pony conversions to my Power is going to Guru-ize my duals.

[birds of paradise2]

is going to Guru-ize my duals.

LOL. To quote you from earlier in this thread, when you flamed guru-altered power:
"I feel like the Guru-eque alters are getting overdone."

Nice deck though!

Not a lot you can do to dual lands as far as alters go. But with other stuff (Moxen, Goyfs, etc.), Guru alters do seem a bit overdone. That's just my opinion.

Also, following GP: Indianapolis - expect to see a Big Macintosh Mox Ruy (or maybe a Trixie Mox Ruby), a Pinkie Pie Ancestral Recall, a Twilight Sparkle Time Vault, and (maybe) a Princess Celestia Black Lotus.

[I am the brainwasher]

I really, really like these Bolts, nice deck.
Is that Moeller's Sig. on them?

[phonics]

Wow, that Moeller sig is one of the few that I think actually looks great (on the deeds and the bolts). Also love the arena us lands. I love the old arena foiled lands from a/b iceage and us, basically the ones with the text instead of the mana symbol in the box.

[Petal Collector]

Not a lot you can do to dual lands as far as alters go.

I dunno, have you seen all the variations on dual lands that poxy, Sandreline, etc. have done? Much more visually striking and appealing than Guru alters, imho.

IMO go with Big Mac on the ruby since he's red. Trixie would look better on one of the big blue cards XD

I still cant believe your doing it but props to you for having the guts to go through with it.

[csy]

so close yet so far.

I have 4 japanese brainstorms in transit, as well as elesh and empyrial.

A lot of the Splinter Twin decks played it as a one-of in PT Phili last summer, because it sped up the clock when it hit, and wasn't too harmful otherwise.

Signed Tinker. I'm annoyed I had to pay this much, only one other person bid on it... Regardless, happy because I've been looking for one for my Type 1 collection for awhile (I don't do foil).

[coraz86]

@mchainmail; good to know, but I'm filing that under the "god draw" category.

@Malacoda;
a) holy hotness, man.
b) are you the bum who outbid me for the signed German CotV?
c) seriously; holy hotness. Grats, man.

@thread; one more load from Marvin (last one til school lets out, but still; thanks a lot man ).

[Basaka]

Oh, I kinda want German duresses now...

Idk, point at your opponent and go ZWANG ZWANG ZWANG or something.

Thanks man :)

No I'm not actually! I bought it here. I think he still has one left.

Dat Leyline...

I swear, German is getting harder and harder to find.
