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

[sauce]

I like it but only if the entire deck is the same language

[useL]

Soo, I was trying to be original and get some foil Mercadian Masques basics for my deck. Anyone know where I can find some version 4 islands japanese foil? Happy for any help.

[Megadeus]

I mean if someone is playing an eternal format and they don't know what the cards do they may have an issue... obviously they may need to look up a few things (especially if you are playing nedleeds) but over all people have a decent understanding of what everything does

[NewAddictions]

Classy guy, I approve. Nice Korean foils bro!

Thanks!

[Koby]

small sampling of my addiction to older cards

am I the only person that foreign cards bother? I just cant stand them... am I alone in this?


let me rephrase... I dont like foreign cards because i don't think the text looks good. They create problems in tournaments when trying to refer to text. Even though you know your cards your opponent doesnt. and I guess i dont appreciate their scarcity...

I'm so confused right now...

My guess is he is not a fan of Asian pimping and only had itl legends due to cheapness.

I'm so confused right now...

I hate those cards actually, BUT when you get a deal on them like i did sometimes it can be overlooked. It still bothers me tho and I want so bad to trade them for english ones.

maybe 20 for the italian chains, 90 for the whole set of nether voids, and 40 for the abyss. maybe 2 years ago.

[jamesh]

I got them months ago but I would rather not share that information lol

Why not? It's helpful to share this sort of information with others. Don't be so precious. Korean foil shaman price has gone like this, this year.
180 > 200 > 220 > 250 > 280 > 320
Notice a trend lol.

[Occam]

Yeah, let's all post pictures with price information that is either anachronistic or subjective!



$300

At first I was fear(ing) and trembling that the tape was on the Lotus, but alas, it is not. I just have to put my faith in the fact you couldn't have and just not worry about it.

You can't turn Beta in Alpha at this point in the game. You could tell the difference, whether it was professionally cut or not. The cards are too old now.

EDIT: You'd be exposing "new" cardstock that hasn't been exposed for 20+ years compared to the other edges which have. There would be a colour difference. The newly cut corners, when viewed from the sides, would look fresher.

-Matt

The color difference would mainly be due to oxidation, and dirt to some extent. I am certain the aged look of paper isn't something that's completely unreproducible. The old edges can also be cleared with an eraser to some degree to match the fresh cut corners. It is possible if someone is willing to do it.

[sdematt]

But it's harder is the issue.

Nothing's impossible

-Matt

[death]

Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live
the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it.
Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion.
Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare.
Impossible is potential.

Impossible is nothing.

[sdematt]

Exactly.

-Matt

[Occam]

"Impossible doesn't mean very difficult. Very difficult is winning the Nobel Prize; impossible is eating the Sun."

[death]

"Impossible doesn't mean very difficult. Very difficult is winning the Nobel Prize; impossible is eating the Sun."

Impossible is temporary. That's a line I omitted from above.

Stars, like the sun, do die and eventually turn into dust. Whenever that time comes you can eat a part of the sun if you're still up to it.

[Occam]

Impossible is binary. It is, or isn't. There is no sliding temporal scale.

If something was impossible but isn't, that is related to an epochal change with regards only to the subject. The dictum of impossibility is separate. Before the Wright brothers, flight was impossible for humanity. Now, it is possible, but that doesn't change what impossibility actually is. Adidas just bamboozled everyone with pseudo-inspirational rhetoric.

Anyway, not the thread for this discussion.

Knowing him it came out of a pack with the tape on it, sick misprint/plot twist.

Someone said, "black lotus with mox jet printed on back, and they just taped a mox jet to the back for the lulz

[nedleeds]

I hate my bears getting countered.
