I have a lot of really cool cards I've collected over the years, including:Jace, the Mind Sculptor x4 Underground Sea Tundra Taiga Volcanic Island and Library of Alexandria .What cool cards have you collected over the years, and do they have any special meaning to you?

I have my Drana, Kalastria Bloodchief (Foil) it's in pretty rough shape but it was my first ever MTG card given to me by my best friend when I showed interest in the game. I plan to have it sealed and framed.
Other than that my collection is pretty boring because I really only collect to play. I guess the few fetches I have my count?

Coolest IMO? My foil Modern Masters Manamorphose is beautiful (never giving it up), and while it seems quite...underrated, considering your cards, it's the small things in life. I just like the way it looks, and I also pulled it during my first-ever FNM. If I remember correctly, the first match I ever won at my FNM was during a draft, where I topdecked that Manamorphose, cast it and immediately drew into whatever win condition I had and won.

For special meaning, my Nissa Revane was the first rare I pulled in my first draft ever, and my first Planeswalker. As far as other cool cards, I'm very proud of my foil Avacyn, Angel of Hope , my foil Polluted Delta , my French Crucible of Worlds and my FTV:20 JTMS.
October 25, 2014 12:46 a.m.
wow, Epochalyptik, you own a really neat collection, and your very lucky to have a Tabernacle. My Damnation isnt the full art, but it is in Russian Not Foil though :( and my Strip Mine is Italian.

EverythingIsK I own a foil Storm Crow . Or rather, a foil Storm Crow owns me.

Some of my cooler cards are Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre , Emrakul, the Aeons Torn , and Kozilek, Butcher of Truth . I have my Survival of the Fittest , Demonic Tutor , Damnation , and Karn Liberated , which I'm proud of. I've got a full alter Kruphix, God of Horizons as my commander.
My more special/sentimental cards:
My first rare I pulled was a foil Garruk Relentless Flip , which I got signed a week later by Eric Deschamps at GP Charlotte.
Cruel Ultimatum is my favorite card just because it is what it is. So I collect every copy I can find.
I have a foil No Mercy that just kind of appeared in my binder. I don't remember ever buying, trading, or coming across one.

Coolest card: Altered Liliana of the Veil . Being my favorite walker and card in general, she is just... so great.
Favorite card: foil Turn to Frog . My first deck was mono blue Trolling featuring the full 4 of this thing, and I like to remember that by keeping a foil copy in the front of my binder. Also, I may have to remake that deck now that Polymorphist's Jest is a thing.

I wish so badly I could take that joke into the nearest alleyway and put a Glock to it's head then promptly blow its brains across the street :P

At least for my favorite card that I have, Elspeth, Sun's Champion . First planeswalker I got at my first Prerelease (which was the first event I went to).

One of the cooler cards I own is a guru Plains . Wish I had the money to buy the other four for a set. Maybe one day!

I've got my altered commanders, an extended borderline alter zendikar Island, altered shrapnel blast, altered counterspell (with Phoenix Wright screaming objection), several basic land alters (I like altering my cards); demonic and vampiric tutors, almost a full set of Kahns fetches (playsets) except that I don't have a single delta; German exotic Orchard, and a foil Russian Bile Blight that I pulled out of a Russian pack.
Not a lot of swag going on here. Also sorry for not linking. It's a pain in the ass on mobile.

I own an Island
. Get on my level.
/thread
But in all seriousness, I don't really own much... A couple fetches and shocks I guess...?
Also, inb4 gnarlicide mentions his playset of Goyfs.
October 25, 2014 2:55 a.m.
My playset of stronghold Ensnaring Bridge , one of my favorite cards ever.
Beyond that, A foil Zur the Enchanter , a foil Karona, False God and a foil Scornful Egotist . And no, the Egotist is not for sale, sorry guys.

My Living Plane . Because who do you know that has one?
October 25, 2014 3:59 a.m.
Guru Plains that I got signed by Terese Nielsen. :)
Next to that? Probably Diamond Valley . Really flavorful and cool.
Wish I still had my Shahrazad
October 25, 2014 4:10 a.m.
Hey, it was the second set released, cut Wizards some slack. :P
Its actually a really cool part of The Arabian Nights story.
October 25, 2014 4:12 a.m.
Oh, and my collection of 30+ Tibalt, the Fiend-Blooded , Soooo much value.
October 25, 2014 4:47 a.m.
I have a play set of most shocklands in german as well as my English ones because german is a really cool language in my opinion. I also have a collection of foil shocklands that I've picked up over the last year or two.
I have a german Myr Superion because the translation is AMAZING. That's a fun one.
I have a full art foil Damnation , a full art Unmake , a full art foil Day of Judgment , a full art foil Blade of the Sixth Pride (which is probably my favourite card for some reason), and a full art Mortify . All of these have really cool images.
I have a foil Merieke Ri Berit which is very nice.
I have an altered Teneb, the Harvester which I'm a big fan of.
Although I think all of that is lame in comparison to my girlfriends collection which includes a foil copy of almost every sphinx printed in magic. For the lolz.
October 25, 2014 5:55 a.m.
In terms of non foils, English language, non promos etc. (just normal cards): I own my edh deck (lots of old tutors and a few ABUR lands), and a rock deck in modern (goyfs, lilianas, dark confidants).
But then I'm an old guy with a job so it doesn't count.
October 25, 2014 5:59 a.m.
The card I own that I like the most isn't rare or expensive. No, that's not the reason I like it. My favorite card I own is a Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker from the Duel Deck.

To pair with the previously mentioned Guru Plains, I just picked up a Guru Swamp for my Legacy deck. I'm pretty excited to get it in a few days.

I've got a Library, a Ancestral Recall signed by Richard Garfield, a porteguese Mana Crypt. And 50 or so Shadowborn Apostle's.

Truth be told, my playset of golfs are not my coolest cards I own. But they are pretty awesome...
My coolest cards I own are my extended art Fulminator Mage
that I painted. My Star Wars alter Umezawa's Jitte
. My Darth Vader Dark Confidant
(aka, Darth Confidant), my signed Ravnica Watery Grave
, my vampire tokens that show the count from Sesame Street. A Japanese foil Dig Through Time
.
I am a sucker for alters. I have more cards, but there are to many to name.

I will soon own a playset of Cryptic Command , and currently own six Misty Rainforest s and three Snapcaster Mage s.
However, the coolest cards I own are probably the two (soon to be four) Dig Through Time . That card is gas.

Everyone's naming off all these expensive cards and I'm here like "I have a....Russian Goblin Guide " and that's about the extent of cool cards.
I mean, there's my completely normal Kaalia of the Vast but I think she's cool just because awesome ability is awesome.
