Isn't it tax statement or bank statement karakas?

[thecrav]

isn't it nedleeds'?

it would appear so

[nedleeds]

That is Bank Statement Karakas. It's not for sale or trade. I'll be buried with it.

Will be an awesome german D&T deck then finished. Mail me if you need help for missing german pieces. I missed to let Kai immediately sign that Xantid too. Sry, pal.

Edit: In case someone wonders: The Xantid was signed by Kai Sawatari, Matt Pavlic, myself and Julian Knab

[Plague Sliver]

Thanks, will let you know if I have more needs.

Actually Kai signed it, his signature is located on the top-right corner :)

Can anyone help me to decide if this card is fake? Should i post this somewhere else, i can't find a dedicated thread for counterfeit card discussion.

it looks (to me) to be discolored (somewhat brighter) than a normal card, especially visible on the black border. I don't have any original cards from antiquities to compare side by side. It's a NM reserved list card for 300 and i don't want to be suckered with it. Your opinions will be much appreciated.

[CutthroatCasual]

Looks real to me.

If "counterfeits" get to the point where they're literally mimicking the WotC official printing process (text is printed separately and doesn't use Rosette pattern), then they might as well just be called "genuine" MTG cards.

Question for people who play "pimped" MUD and MUD-like decks:

What are your thoughts on FTV Trinisphere? It is much cheaper than Darksteel Foil Trinisphere and actually in some places even cheaper than non-foil Darksteel Trinisphere.

In the foil-loving community, I assume this price reflects a distaste for FTV Trinisphere and possibly FTV foils in general? Can someone explain to me why?

Generally speaking the 'premium'/special foil sets have a crap foiling process resulting in a card that folds over like a lawn chair. Freshly opened FTV sets will often present a stack of curled cards that look like mtg Pringles

For a lot of people (including me) any kind of reprint of a card is considered just a "proxy" if the original is already available in foil (preferably old frame).

The point of pimpin' is that it ain't easy.

FTV foils are the one thing that can unite the foil-loving and foil-hating communities. They just look nasty. Don't bother with them IMO. They used a weird foiling process with all FTV (and some other "premium" products) that just makes them look cheap and gaudy. If you're going full foil and have no other options, then okay. You gotta do what you gotta do. But if a set foil option exists, you gotta take it. Because those FTV foils look like doodoo. That's really all there is to it.

Edit: I'm late to the party. This has already been said. My badz.

There is notable exceptions to this IMO, Judge Foil SoFI and Lightining Bolt are the 2 that spring to mind.
