Help me foil out my deck?

The Trading Post forum

Hey guys! So I know this is a mission in itself but I would love to foil out my deck, Modern Caws, and wherever a promo is available, I would love it to be there. I can trade back regular versions in most cases. For the elspeths, I would love the SOA art so either SOA or MM foils of her.

At the moment I already have a german DD elspeth and a foil Spell Snare so I would love the help!

dude, I have been doing that with my modern pod deck. I am either getting promos or signed foils. I am about halfway there.

Lucky! It is going to be so difficult for me because so many of the pieces are so expensive

yeah, my pod deck is relatively cheap compared to some of the modern builds floating around. And because most of the creatures are one of's, it is really easy to foil it out. I got lucky in the beginning, I found 4x Birthing Pod s foiled and signed by the artist online. There was only a 2 dollar difference between those and the regular non foils. So I splurged, lol. After that, I just went on a promo/foil buying craze.

Yeah, MM was a bust for me. I have maybe spent 60 bucks on DMZ, mostly because I won a box's worth, and don't really need anything from it. So I trade most of the cards I pull away.

Lol, I have only bought 2 MM packs... nothing good. Played MM draft twice, forgetting that I absolutely suck at drafting, so the good cards from MM that I do have, I had to trade my draft decks for. I felt like MM was to get people to spend a ton of money for 3 cards. I am pretty pumped about FTV 20, though. That I am pre ordering the shit out of.

nope, but it's the 20th anniversary... it HAS to be good. Even then, buy two (40 bucks), open 1... if it sucks, keep the other one sealed and wait a while for profit.

I've got a MM foil Cryptic Command ft if you're interested. That's about it, I'm afraid.
