I plan on bringing out both the Overlord and Bladewing via the Dragon Arches.

Also, you don't have to use eBay to buy the cards. There are loads of websites selling Magic cards. Like this one: Dragon Arch @ $1

Not protection from all colours, merely from spells and abilities of all colours. That means they can still be hurt when blocking, Unlike the Iridescent Angel. Too bad you can't turn off the protection temporaily like Autumn Willow. Otherwise, put something like Eternal Warrior and Pariah on it, and you are pretty much home free.

Glad to see the deck shaping up Dinodoc. Tell me how the deck plays when you get a chance.

Maybe they should put me on commission, eh?

Speaking of theme decks... Does anyone want to take up this challenge? I'd be interested to see what the people here can come up with on this track.

I think it means the cards are printed on aluminium foil, or something like that, instead of cardboard.

No kidding. You don't need 30 or 40 slivers for a theme deck.

oh, cool! I didn't know about that! since when did wizards started to print Foil cards? Are they supposed to last longer or something? Do u have to buy in different boosters in order to get FOIL cards? Damn, now that i think of FOIL, i think this is one of the another WotC's nasty marketing strategy.......

Jon,

That's true, but only for weenies.


thinkingamer,

Of course it's a WotC marketing ploy I am not sure if these cards are actually used, either.

I think you can use foil cards to play, since the backs are the same.

No idea, too expensive for me.

They are legal to play. It's just a gimmick because they look sparkly.

That could be useful, but you may be forced to discard because your hand is too big. Better add in something like Library of Leng or Anvil of Bogardan.

Not going to make much of a difference once you put it in a plastic sleeve, though.

or a good old Spellbook. There's another card also which puts them back onto your library rather than into your hand.
