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

[Technics]

Sideboard is done as well except for the Bayou I need to pick up at Chiba.

So, I'm getting ready to get my DnT pimped. I'm doing it nonfoil Japanese for the most part, but my Batterskull and Jitte are GP promo foils, leaving me with the thought of foiling out all the artifacts (I play 2 Mox Diamond, already foil). So now I'm looking for opinions, do I want FTV vials or Masterpiece vials, or do I scrap the idea and just leave everything nonfoil japanese and go OG Japanese on the vials?

OG non foil Japanese.

[Bobmans]

Combining foil and non-foil is not wishful unless everything is foil (if possible).
Consistency is a thing. Promo's are not really a consideration next to non-foil Japanese.
The idea might sounds fun, but there is always the aspect of foil cards that slightly bend and stick out, making them "marked". So you'd (theoretically) be able to find your artifacts. So for those going partially foil, get enough variance in there to satisfy the judge.

Another thing to consider is marked cards.

I have a 71/75 foiled D&T deck. The non foils being Karakas (hate the Judge Promo and like the way my simple alter looks like on my Legends ones) and I can't tell when I'm going to draw one of them. Mainly due to double sleeving, and also I keep the cards in a semi-tight deck box.

[Secretly.A.Bee]

I triple sleeve, I'm not worried about them looking different. I play only 4 foils in the list currently, and cannot tell at all. Also, I'm not so anal that having a few "different" cards in the mix. I'm not sure yet if I'll get my 3 Karakas altered or if I'll just get japanese ones from ema.

Would avoid foiling just a specific group of cards, would hate to run into that guy trying to fish for a win by calling a judge for that.

So definitely OG Jap.

@gRR: Always love your posts, even though I stopped commenting not to repeat my self What's up with David Hudnut and Groves? Is he hard to get to sign or?

Thank you! Yes, Hudnut is extremely hard to find; as far as I remember right now I've only seen a playset of signed Groves. Of course I could had tried to sign the From the Vault ones, but that would be like cheating

What's the preferred pimp of Dark Confidant? I'm really torn here since old border judge promo Bob is so damn cool with the parchment text box.

I don't think there's a general consensus about that. Many people say that they hate the big star in the textbox. But also the old border and the foil art is really cool (original old border foils didn't have foil art).
I used to have the dci ones and if you don't care about the big star they are awesome, really shiny compared to the ravnica ones.

Anything but modern masters are, basically.

Original foil Russian/Japanese.

Japanese or Russian RAV foil or Judge Promo. Would fancy a Japanese playset myself but I don't play him in any decks that would warrant such money.

[Secretly.A.Bee]

He's actually about as low as he's ever really been. Nows a good time to buy.

Drool. Those are great, cheers

>Single sleeved

I too like to live dangerously. Just the other day I had an open container on the same desk as my triple-sleeved Legacy deck.

[blackberrybold]

These are spicy cards

[JohnGalt]

Well played.
