Title: I got my MTG Player Rewards today
Description: DCI promo anyone?
Law - October 3, 2005 08:44 PM (GMT)
Well I knew I was reaching the mark of getting a promo (Thought it would be a different one then the one I got).
So I open it and I see a Promo foil Hypnotic Specter with the old art and the new format. I say thats sweet on so many levels. Yes over the years I finly hit to 20 mark on events that I went to that gave me credit.
Plus I got these as well.
Textless Pyroclasm (Love it)
Textless Hinder (Trade item)
Dragon Token (Trade item)
Soldier Token (Nice)
Yes my first hippy is a promo ^_^.
Adam - October 3, 2005 08:52 PM (GMT)
I would sell it and buy all the cards you are missing to make your R/W and R/G and affinity decks work.
tidal kraken - October 3, 2005 09:11 PM (GMT)
I could buy the hippie off of you if you're interested.
Law - October 3, 2005 09:13 PM (GMT)
How much? I was looking at the price on ebay and it had a range of 50-75 bucks a peace. Plus I would need to talk to my dad first.
tidal kraken - October 3, 2005 09:27 PM (GMT)
Nevermind, thats a bit out of my price range. I was thinking it would be more like $20.
Law - October 3, 2005 09:29 PM (GMT)
Give or take a few weeks maby. But then again every one want the promo right now.
imopen2 - October 3, 2005 11:04 PM (GMT)
sell it on ebay right now derf.
Law - October 3, 2005 11:08 PM (GMT)
Im going to be watching what they are going for for now. Tell my dad I do have a card that can be worth money. Then see if I can get it up. Then if that happens ask him if I can spend the money on more cards ;). Pick up some of the ones I need to finish/retool my r/g deck depending on how much I get. One reason why ill be watching.

Am I the only person who really likes the new hyppie art? I think it is waaaaaaaaay better than the old one. Seriously guys, the whole specters are ghastly things that ride dragony things motif kicks ass!

I like the old art. I'm not really sure why, I just like the spectral soldier thingy.

Personally, I MUCH prefer the old art.
Adam - October 4, 2005 01:44 PM (GMT)
The old art keeps the flavor of the game, even though the rest of the card structure has changed. The new art is just kinda lame in comparison. Some dragon sitting on a rock somewhere, vs a big armored, axe bearing ghost in your face and hacking away at your spells as he hacks away at your life is just so much damn more appealing.
PLUSt - October 4, 2005 01:54 PM (GMT)
Wow.
This almost makes me wish I didn't go to a store that isn't sanctioned.

Me too.
Also, this was the year of the shitty block that wouldn't die, so I think I played in like 3 tournaments all year. I had like 12 events the year before.
Fuckers.

and what about a bad ass dude on a FREAKING DRAGON says 2/2 to you. More like 8/8.
BAD ART!
HarborMastr - October 4, 2005 11:00 PM (GMT)
Yeah, I mean compare the new art of hyppie to the card to this:

Now are telling me that this band of beebles can leave a fight unscathed vs. the dragon hyppie???
Law - October 4, 2005 11:09 PM (GMT)
There beebles does it need to make sence?
Plus im going to be keeping it unless some gives me an asome trade for it (which might happen you never know).
Fonzy - October 4, 2005 11:15 PM (GMT)
I like the new art a lot it's just that the DCI Hyppies are fucking golden.
Law - October 4, 2005 11:19 PM (GMT)
I myself love both but, fonzy your right the DCI one just has that look to it that makes it cool. I now have it in a black card cover and it looks just a little cooler to me. Then again I just took it out of its rapper and im trying to keep the freash DCI look to it.
PLUSt - October 5, 2005 12:09 AM (GMT)
Have you held a new art hyppie?
ewww
The art itself is nice, it just isn't great when its been minimized to 3x3.
Edit: Fonzy, kami limited was decent the one time I played in it.
meh
Rugal - October 5, 2005 02:21 AM (GMT)
The new art shines in gold. Very beautiful. Really. But I preferred old art more.
Seeing Flying Dragon as 2/2 is err... kinda lame to me. I like the old one more because it's more like a "ghost" or "wraith" which wandering in darkness...

Triple-CoK was cool for obvious reasons :rip:
But other than that.
PLUSt - October 5, 2005 12:47 PM (GMT)
Yes, after triple COK, double COK just couldn't keep up.
However, single COK was the last straw.
How disapointing.
:rolleyes:

Mmm... My foil Hyppie Specter is HOT!
