How Pimp Are You IV: The Revenge

[Kowal]

I've been going through my collection and determining what to sell (my power is definitely going, I need cash bad) so I decided that because this is the last time in a while I'll be able to show off some bling, and because BrassMan hasn't been able to participate in one of these threads yet, it's time to bring this back.


T(endrils) P(wns) S(crubs)

4 Saga Foil Duress
4 (mundane) Force of Will
1 S-Chinese Foil Cunning Wish
1 Japanese Foil Chain of Vapor

4 Japanese Brainstorm

1 Japanese Foil Frantic Search

1 S-Chinese Foil Mind's Desire
1 Japanese Signed Yawgmoth's Will
1 Beta BUSHMAN Time Walk (oh, the stories this could tell)

1 Beta Signed Demonic Tutor
1 Korean Vampiric Tutor
1 Japanese Mystical Tutor
1 Japanese Foil Tinker

1 S-Chinese Foil Tendrils of Agony

4 Signed Artist Proof Dark Ritual (Guay picture, I can run a mix of foil and japanese foil too, but this is type one, I can get away with proofs and I will)
1 unl Black Lotus, prize from Jersey and double signed in silver/gold
1 Beta Signed Sol Ring

It doesn't quite match JACO's shit, but it's better than average, that's for damn sure.

Also, don't hold back if your deck is mad ghetto either.

[CF]

Some nice ones there! Let me know if you decide to get rid of some of the Asian stuff off Urza's Block (the korean and foil jap stuff)

[Pyromaniac]

I've actually sort of had it with pimping. I won't bash other people for doing it at all, I've done a lot of it myself. However, it's a heap of money lying around doing virtually nothing.

I think I could rival Kowal in his pimpage, but seeing I'm at work now, I can't type any long lists. Maybe if I get home tonight I'll make a few, if I have nothing better to do.

CF: if you still need any A/B duals lemme know, I have a few spare Volcanics and Tundras now. I'm slowly downgrading back to revised atm.

[Machinus]

Man, if you ever want to trade those sweet-ass saga islands, let me know. Also, I am trying to buy some non-pimp UN power, any way I can, so let me know if you are interested.

[Komatteru]

Ok, I'll list my DeathLong and sideboard (just the Pimply stuff).  It might not be quite as good at Kowal's TPS or JAC0's, but it's still pretty amazing.

3 Foil Forbidden Orchard
1 Japanese Tolarian Academy
4 JSS/DCI Foil City of Brass
1 Japanese Gemstone Mine
4 Saga Foil Duress
4 Foil Brainstorm
1 Foil Yawgmoth's Bargain
1 Foil Memory Jar
1 Beta Demonic Tutor
1 Foil Mind's Desire
1 Foil Signed Burning Wish
1 Korean Windfall
1 Foil Vampiric Tutor (also have a Chinese one lying around)
1 Foil Necro
1 Italian FBB Wheel of Fortune
4 Foil Death Wish
1 Foil Tinker
4 Signed Foil Dark Ritual
1 Signed Mana Crypt
1 Signed Unlimited Black Lotus
1 Beta Sol Ring
1 Foil Chrome Mox
1 Japanese LED
1 Korean Signed Lotus Petal
1 Beta Mana Vault
1 Foil Crop Rotation
1 AQ Hurkyl's Recall
1 Signed Unlimited Ancestral Recall
2 Foil Tendrils of Agony
2 Foil Rebuild
1 Chinese Signed Balance
1 Foil Darksteel Colossus
1 Foil Oxidize
1 Beta Regrowth
1 Japanese Time Spiral
4 Foil Xantid Swarm
1 Japanese Yawgmoth's Will (also have a signed English one)

I put this together after Origins, so I missed Tedin signing my Necro (which I just forgot to have him do while I was there), foil Cities, Vault, and Ring.  I had him sign an unlimited Ring, Drains, FBB Cities, and all sorts of other stuff, but most of it sits around now.

Plus there's a couple of other super secret tech cards that are pimply (they're commons, so not so impressive). Needless to say, any other combo deck I put together gets played with all the pimp stuff at serious competitions, so my TPS looks similar (but I don't have foil fetchlands yet).  I'm glad to see that you got your foil Deltas, Kowal.  At SCG III, you were playing Flooded Strand because you had foils of those but no foil Deltas (or something like that).  I was beginning to worry that you were a scrub.  

If you want to sell off some of your stuff, I'm interested in anything Japanese you have.

[Hi-Val]

Unless you've got something signed/modified by me in your deck, it's not really pimp at all. You should know this.

I can't bring myself to take it apart, as it's the pimpest deck I've ever owned. Like, it's ALWAYS built but I never play it, as I opt to play other decks with pimpness and proxies...sounds pretty shallow huh?

Heh.

[Azhrei]

My rapier looks like that, but with bluing, a wire-wrapped handle, and a flat quillion pattern.

Trust me, it is extremely pimp.

[JACO]

I'm taking requests. Post what deck you want to see pimped (something playable please; this does not include shit like Blueberry Parfait), and I'll post a ridiculously sick version of it. Kowal, this is your thread, so you start it off...

[Kowal]

I want to see you compete with BrassMan.  Post your version of his build from Endicott/Waterbury.

I stopped doing pimp stuff when the format started making it a pain in the ass.

I dont think I've ever agreed with Zherbus more...    our format has come so far... but the days of having 1 deck and investing in pimpitude are gone... at least if you want to stay competitive.

[everythingitouchdies]

1 Mox Sapphire (UL, NM)
1 Mox Jet (UL, NM)
1 Mox Emerald
1 Mox Ruby (UL, NM)
