Looks like TNT on that Russian TeegThose goyfs are pretty sick.
I've been working on my ANT deck, which I'm planning on playing at GP DC in November. I don't know if it'll be done by then, but it'll hopefully be close.
Everything main deck is Japanese (non-foil, since if you can't go 100% foil what's the point?) except for dual lands (german white border) and 14 cards (the 3 basics, 1 gemstone mine, 4 polluted deltas, 4 infernal tutors, 1 ad nauseam and 1 tendrils of agony). The basic islands are actually done, but are in another deck for reasons that currently escape me, and the last gemstone mine is in the mail, so that'll bring me down to 11 main deck cards left. I'm not actively working on the sideboard at the moment, so that's still all english except for one dual and a cabal therapy.
The long term plan is to expand this into an entirely japanese (where possible) "box of storm", which can be played as either ANT, TES or Belcher. I've got parts of TES and Belcher either done or in the mail, but like the sideboard those aren't being actively worked on until I finish the main deck of ANT, since that's the version I intend to play in DC.
hello to everyone here (=
my friends asked me to post my UG_Post here
so it is/ as usual nonenglish, alterate, signed, all cards in different languages, foil. hate russain cards but
enjoy (=
byes are for girls!
now i want to sign most of the cards by artist and to have more alterations (=
byes are for girls!
Nice deck, but lacks a consistent theme with regards to language choices. Foil asian is overrated, more people should just go foil German or Italian.
I've got 2 island slots I need to fill in a deck. Should I play summer, japanese foil snow-covered/full art zendikar, miscuts or textless 4th? The summer and 4th ones are white bordered, and I don't have two of my favourite art for the 4th ones (different arts), which kinda sucks.
One must imagine Sisyphus happy.
foil asian isn't overrated - foil Japanese is still a popular pimp choice espec for older printings - nice all is dust

Hey Lox
Will you be slinging that @BoM? (and how did everything Work out with that DQ?)
Nice alterations, I particularly like the Karakas. The Foil RU Emrakul is very nice as well.
Any special reason why you had Saito sign a Mindbreak Trap?
Summer. 100% summer. It's the cream, and Zendikar are honestly ugly.Originally Posted by Occam
Summer are boss. Textless 4th could be another option, but go with summer
Glad someone agrees with me on the Asian is overrated and to go German. And of all people, it's Occam making that comment ;)
I'd probably go with summer for the color saturation being quite a gem. I know you're in the works of picking up some other textless 4th basics, is one of the islands your favorite art?
What it takes to be a pimp:
1. Knowing the right people.
2. Have the money
Not one or the other, but both.
The fastest way to become a millionare is to start with a billion dollars, then start collecting magic cards, eh? - dry cereal
You can German out most internet legacy decks. Something you can't say about jap/chinese/korean/russian ... especially if you don't like playing with foil-ghi-oh cards. Ice Age forward, plus Revised gets you essentially everything unless you are rocking Forcefield or Lich. Italian has slightly more coverage because of Legends but Italian Legends is so ghetto it waters everything down.
Edit: I'm not speaking strictly about $$ value of course. Otherwise ... sure miscut, crimped, Patrick Swayze signed summer then ...
Considering pimp, strictly value-wise, russian (and korean) are obv more expensive, compared to german.
German, however, are just an awesome language. The cyrillic alphabet are indeed awesome to look at, but I don't care for asian cards, as well.
Besides, when you can't get force's in anything else than european languages (considering you don't get them altered to jap (http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l1...mp/JPNFows.jpg). What's the point, if you can't match the entire deck =)?
I am currently trying to get the last few pieces to match in my Grixis Delver deck, will try to upload pictures as soon as I get it done :)!
(All english foil/all german non-foils). Just need 3x foil fetch + 3x foil bob to go, so shouldn't be too long :)!
Jap just reminds me of people who show up with sticky hent@! pr0n playmats. German reminds me of getting shit done. Russian reminds me of drinking. Korean reminds me of value.
agree, basicly. :D Which is why I like german.
(I can't afford rus foil, otherwise I might go for that, and german non-foil, due to, as mentioned, the cyrillic alphabet being completely insanely cool).
Mostly agree. But fuck value. Why do you need that if you are drinking and getting shit done already?
Loxmatii I never would have thought I would see Cheburashka on an alteration. Time for an internet reference!

Sergey, so glad to see you finally post your masterpiece UG Post here. I was so incredibly honored that I was allowed to play it at BoM Annecy this year. *High-Five*, my friend!
The seven cardinal sins of Legacy:
1. Discuss the unbanning ofLand TaxEarthcraft.
2. Argue that banning Force of Will would make the format healthier.
3. Play Brainstorm without Fetchlands.
4. Stifle Standstill.
5. Think that Gaea's Blessing will make you Solidarity-proof.
6. Pass priority after playing Infernal Tutor.
7. Fail to playtest against Nourishing Lich (coZ iT wIlL gEt U!).
Those japanese altered forces are actually pretty sweet! Makes me want to change mine to another language as well...
Of the originals, I like this one quite a bit:
Only have one textless one which is like that, though. Summer or textless would mean white bordered, which look weird in a deck which is completely BB. Unless I play summer duals, which I don't have enough of to make a deck with :(
Well, yeah -- I don't look down nor disagree with people who go foil Asian -- I do it because I like the look and I can get stuff relatively cheap, but when people have to go foil Japanese/Korean because people view European languages (except Russian) or English as inferior, that is what I meant when I made that "overrated" comment.
One must imagine Sisyphus happy.
