my favorite art ever, possibly my favorite card ever, in sexy form:
Hot MTG China proxy
that blackblade is looking HOT!!! If you ever come down to DMF on any day other than fridays, I have a couple of extra MTG china tokens for you.
BTW I will be posting all my Mo-Mo's if I ever get my scanner working. 23 foils, one artist proof (thanks to Califrag) and about 200 various regular ones, including 4 Korean BB's (again thanks to Califrag)

Round One: Bill Copes playing Stax
Bill seems like a nice guy till I see that he's playing Stax and realize (by way of a concrete Magic formula I learned from my 4th grade math teacher) he has no soul.
Thanks Wint3rfr3sh! I did not post all of the foil pics that go in the decks. I am only a foil Garruk away from making the entire Cruel Toast deck all foil. I still have a ways to go on Esper. I used a combo of the "official" magic tournament sleeves and the sleeves with the various magic card art on it. ( I do not know the brand off hand).
The fastbond is in there because the FBB German version says "Schnellbund" and the FWB German version says "Schopfungskraft" and I wanted to have one of each translation... Anybody speak German or know what the difference is?
thanks hygiene - that's pretty much exactly what this guy said on another thread:
Quote from kiljo »
I know some German, Schnellbund is a quite literally translautes to Fastbond (Schnell = Fast and Bund = bond, among other things) Schopsfungskraft on the other hand roughly means "Crop creation" (With Schöpsfung = Creation and Kraft = crop)
Hmm.. I've got a friend who has those cards, I think he buyed them from you..
Also he has 4 Dark Rituals, all with different 300 characters
I'm really sad right now, because my only pimp is foil Windswept Heath, but some years ago, had a Zodiac Dragon (priced to 200 USD on different sites), but I glued it to my wall, because it was portal, and thus illegal..

Island taps for U and cost zero. It should be banned.
Ok I confess, I'm a total fan of the Faerie tribe of Lorwyn-Shadowmoor. I started playing them immediately when Lorwyn came out and just loved their general theme, play style and fantastic artwork. Everyone else kind of thought of them as a fun joke that wouldn't really stand up to the other tribes but little did they know what storm was brewing...
So I merrily collected and bought tons of Faerie Foils cause I just loved the children of Oona so much, of course they ended up being the best tribe and the prices of Foils went up. It was a great investment to say the least.
I thought I'd share with you some of my more favourite Foils - My favourite is probably Nightshade Stinger in Foil, they have a fantastic glow to them and they make for awesome alternative Bitterblossom tokens.

Is your friend about 185cm, slim, almost bald and plays with you every other week?

Worst idea evar. Sorry to hear that... Next time, a sleeve (more measures work as well), and a FRAME works too.
@Sporvan: That's very impressive. I bought and resold (traded, w/e) quite a few Bitterblossoms, since it was one of my favorite cards to come out in the last couple sets, but not from my local store- they had heard me gushing about how good it was, so they didn't trade me them (:()- but foils were hard to nab even then.
And on a very fitting playmat- well done. (I have that same playmat when I play Faeries, just to rub it in that I've sold my soul to the type 2 gods)

I took some of the photos with flash to enhance their colours, but others looked better without it (All the cards pictured are Foil).

Damn thats alot of Faeries... I have a foil Oona if your interested
Glad to see this thread is still up. Its been a while...

Thanks for the compliments! I can totally empathize, Faeries made me get heavily back into Type 2 again from being an oldschool vintage player/collector. I hope you are using the matching Oona sleeves too? They're really nice for tournaments on a Faerie playmat.
Too many choices\decisions and I don't really know which way to go... I am not adding any 'textless' promo cards, because I want all the cards to be readable by my friends.
1) Foil original definately. Unless it's a judge promo or has much better art.
2) I prefer the new frame personally but it's a matter of preference. Although if one is harder to find, go with that one.
3) Foil reprint is cooler.
4) Nah, foil Time-Shifted is definately more cool, especially if you're talking about Tormod's Crypt.
I prefer almost everything in their absolute original state. So foil originals, foil old frames, and non-foil original. I assume you can find a non-foil original/foil original for all TS cards. Most of the promos look like garbage, and aren't even all that pimp because they were distributed en masse.
Digging those MPS lands though.

Thanks to a_passer_bye for an incredible signature banner!
Thanks for the input... that's pretty much how I've been doing it, but with more of a 'if there is a foil available it goes in'.
If it's a foil promo with an old-frame or new frame, I put it in only if there was no other foil available of that card.
There are some stuff like the Mirage guildmage's that were Timeshifted foils, but for some reason I put the original mirage ones.
Then there are some stuff like Tempest Dauthi Slayer that has a timeshifted foil, and I put the timeshifted foil in.
Me too...New Card frame is trash and I've hated it since 8th edition. Therefore if the choice is between an old frame non foil japanese/korean/german/beta and a new frame foil, take the old version. Anything that has a FNM stamp on it literally is unplayable by any self-respecting person.
When I used to pimp foils (don't use them anymore) it was like this:
Counterspell:
DCI Foil>Japanese Masques Foil>Japanese 7th Foil>Beta>S-Chinese 7th>German Masques Foil>Any other type of foil (Euro and T-Chinese)
Beta balance and Beta demonic tutor > Judge foils. (same with regrowth etc.)
Korean Vamp > Japanese Vamp > Foil Vamp (Unless it would be the only non-foil card in your deck)
Japanese Portal 1 and 2 trump everything (including beta)...I'm looking at you ***.
@ Mausch. Very, very nice. I like it all, although my favorites are probably the Avengers.
I don't own much Pimp myself, since this is probably the most expensive card I own...
But I do have some standard choice bits...
And some more angels for fun:
And I am a total forum n00b apparently, as I don't remember how to post pics here from my comp without having those little attachment thumbnails at the bottom.

You had it right, except for the *s in the tags. Don't use bold red. Verbal warning —Rax
what sleeves did you use?

German Foils I forgot to post the other day:
Also, I'm pimping out my cube - in English only..... (I play with a bunch of SUPER NOOBS usually and want all the cards to be readable)
What would you say is the best way to pimp it out:
Foil Promos > Foil Original?
Foil Old Frame > Foil New Frame?
Foil Reprint > Non-Foil Original?
Foil Promo > Foil Time-Shifted?

I really hate the new frame
