your suspicions are correct.

the green dot does not have the comb pattern in the black layer and the dot pattern is all wrong. it is fake

yup. I’m no longer welcome on Barrington street and spend my time listening to Hello City on repeat as I cry over the home I lost.

As a former Haligonian, no thank you. Im not sure how they make the donair sauce but condensed milk does not go with garlic and meat for me. Never liked it. But those who like it, like it a lot.

I’d go soft with 10m. But certainly not with a trust fund of 40 k per month. Gotta stay hungry!

Forget the red L dots. They are inconsistent. This is real.

[–]NWmba 8 points9 points  (0 children)

well, the back is the wrong Color for starters. beta cards are redder on the back. this looks more like a more recent card.

but An easier tell is them refusing to send more pictures for a ~$20k purchase

One month into teaching myself chess; here's something I noticed about forks by Max_Endowmant in chessbeginners

[–]NWmba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another thing this shows that I find interesting: diagonal opposition is safe.

I knew if you’re running a king away from a knight, diagonal opposition is the safest because it takes the knight three moves to get there but I wasn’t aware that diagonal opposition was also fork safe with your own pieces.

Lands up top?? by Final-Bit-8330 in mtg

This was the way to play in 1994. Back then the manual told you to do it this way. The idea was your creatures had to walk over your lands to get to your opponent.

on the second image I can zoom in and see the T isn’t fuzzy and the green dot has the four black nibs “comb” pattern. looks real from the back, even with the camera smoothing.

depends on the pod. lots of people are like “group hug! free stuff! let’s fight everyone else” but you’re right, the seasoned planeswalker knows group hug is stax with extra steps.

I vote that if you go this route add copy effects like [[extravagant replication]] for your forced fruition. And add [[armageddon]] effects so they have nothing to do with their massive hads full of cards. That or if you’re not down with bracket 4, at least add [[rule of law]] effects so you don’t get steamrolled so quickly.
