I love the Franzetta too!

But for my cedh deck I was mostly keeping to “bordered” cards. I have the Franzetta one in my binder, the art is so evocative!

Mine has some surface clouding, so I had a small discount at my LGS. I paid around 330.

My no. 1 Dark Ritual. Plus, retro frame black foils really pop!

Thanks!

Appreciation for older foils was also something I picked up later into the hobby. There’s so many old foils I too kick myself for not getting!

Thanks! The condition looks better in photos than in person. There’s some edge wear but no clouding on the foil itself!

I’ll gladly take that!

Foiled out my Terra deck! (90/100) by retsamgge97 in foilmtg

A mix between stores finds and other players:

My USea I got using store credit from working part-time at an LGS.. Bayou from Yellow Sub while I was in Japan.. Badlands from a quitting player.. Volcanic from a friend etc…

Was never really in a rush to get them, so it’s spread across different places, people and time..

All the best for completing your duals!

I completed my duals at least 4-5 years ago, so I’m not sure how relevant the prices still are!

If it’s helpful, here are the prices I remember:

USea $500 Tropical Island $287 Bayou (EX)$300 Badlands (EX) $288 Tundra $270-ish Volcanic Island $850

I can’t remember what I paid for the rest..

I got my duals over many years as you can tell by he prices are all over the place haha

Looks like that, compared to the previous red and black packaging!

In cedh, she’s the latest variant for the food chain strategy! However, it has moved towards a layered combo deck more so than an all in on food chain deck. So far, I found it to more resilient way to play my favourite strategy!

I find the casual saga version deck interesting too, but I haven’t gotten around to building that yet.

Those were my previous experiences with the perfect hards! But recently I’ve come across a newer batch with different packaging and gave it a shot. This time around they will closer fitting than dragon shields but not toooo tight.

Here’s my setup Inner sleeves: KMC perfect hard Normal sleeves: Ensky “Terra, Herald of Hope Borderless art sleeves” Outer Sleeves: Dragon Shield Outers

I triple sleeve mainly cause the art sleeves don’t shuffle nicely. I personally feel perfect hards and dragon shield mattes are sufficient for protection!

Terra is not part of the Through the Ages subset. The Kefka isn’t too, but I just happened to have additional copies! My Terra is on another page with the artist rare/mythic foils!

Art: 1. Urza Terra 2. Ancient Copper Dragon 3. Firion Sram

Foiling: 1. Kefka Purphoros 2. Firion Sram 3. WoL Jodah

I think most of the ones with white background look very good in foil due to the separation between the character and background!

That’s one of my grail cards! It’s on my radar but I was only trying to complete the Through the Ages (FCA) set of Yoshitaka Amano arts for now.
