I own every Chandra

General forum

Posted on July 11, 2017, 12:42 p.m. by Argy

I own a foil version of every single Chandra that has ever been printed.

I take them with me whenever I play Magic at my LGS.

I have separate copies of them from ones I have in their own deck eg. The Archenemy Chandra.

Do you have any vanity cards that you carry with you?

There's a local player who collects Charging Badger and another local player who collects Titan of Eternal Fire because they're "good cards."

Myself personally no.

I don't carry them with me (because there is a whole binder) but I collect legends.

I have never found a bad/good card I loved enough to try and get a ton of... maybe one day.

You gave me a brilliant idea! I'm going to carry the GREAT LORD EGOTIST with me for sure!

I own a single Storm Crow and whenever somebody tells me how good they are or tries to impress me with their collection, all I have to do is whip that out, say no words and they fall to their knees and beg me for mercy. Nobody can withstand a winter unending.

Rather than roll dice, I carry around a Rock Lobster, Scissors Lizard, and Paper Tiger to determine who goes first in 1v1

I always carry a set of Paper Tiger, Rock Lobster, and Scissors Lizard in each of my 60 card decks because reasons.

I own an unhealthy amount of Sigardian Priest's simply because it is the best card and when I play it my opponent must fold.

Deranged Assistant is my favorite card. I don't collect playsets, because I'd never thought of it before, but I also wouldn't mind if I had 20 more copies of it. Or foils. Especially foils.

Hm...I think I probably would collect tokens (Saprolings especially) if I had a very active LGS. I have a friend with every Wolf token, and it's pretty intimidating.

I have a few other cards that I carry with my Chandras:

  • Eager Construct - best Magic card ever made, Scrying beats Flying
  • Enlarge - the first piece of art I fell in love with
  • Black Cat - the second piece of art I liked
  • Runeclaw Bear - the first bear card I ever owned
  • Totally Lost - I found this among some junk singles and fell in love with Fblthp
  • Switcheroo - I love the entire flavour of this card
  • A Buffy Jenny Callendar card, coz she was cool
  • A custom Diabolic Tutor card I made with me dressed as Chandra and the LGS owner whispering in my ear (he has long, black hair)
  • Storm Crow - you kind of have to

I also have Rock, Paper, Scissors but mine are foil copies of Meteorite, Jayemdae Tome, and Ensoul Artifact

I think I should go back to my project of collecting every copy of Lava Axe that has ever been printed.

I need to complete my Minotaur collection, too. I have all the Creatures, but I need stuff like Didgeridoo.

I have a growing collection of 45 Shatters that I keep in my trade binder.

Yup, there's something not quite right with that Satyr ...

I collect Magic cards. I have a whole binder of them and a few decks made out of them.

Trolololol.

No I don't have anything worth collecting in my mind, although I know a guy with a complete foil eventide set he carries around and someone who owns every planeswalker ever printed.

July 11, 2017 7:37 p.m.

Argy says... #18

You have a FEW decks?

I haven't counted them for a while but I've got around 40 physical decks and I have been playing for three years.

My partner StuBi has around 10 and he's been playing for two years.

That's not including kits like the various anthologies.

You never want for something to play when you're at our house.

I always carry a Winterflame for when folks ask about the art on my playmat.

I've also started carrying around a few Veteran's Sidearms, so I can give one out as a small token of thanks whenever I find out my opponent served in the military.

Besides that though, nothing really ... though I do enjoy collecting foreign language versions my favorite cards.

I collect Baby Walkers (Origins flip walkers) just cause. I'm always up for trading for one of them. I own so many Chandra, Fire of Kaladesh  Flipes lol She was the first legend and planeswalker I played in a competitive deck so her cycle is near and dear to my heart.

Redace878,
That's cool. Though I'd be happy with 45x Shatter (Revised) :-)

I respect the Veteran's Sidearm thing clayperce! :)

I have 13 regular, 1 promo, and 1 foil Pyramid of the Patheon and the guy I share a collection wth has 4 signed foil, 1 unsigned foil, and 8 regular playsets of Jeskai Ascendancy. The pyramid won't linky, sorry.

July 11, 2017 10:04 p.m.

I COLLECT ME AND ANGRIER ME!

HAVE LOTS.
BUT LIKE SMASH AND FOOD, NEVER ENOUGH ...

Argy: Well, I have like 6 EDH decks, a couple of standard decks, and a few casual decks. But it's only a few. I need MOAR!

July 11, 2017 10:21 p.m.

Argy says... #27

Magic players always need MOAR!!

More cards, more sleeves, more deck boxes, more decks, more play time, and more bloody space to store everything.

realBorborygmos needs more realBorborygmos

I thought I should up my game so I've now ordered a foil of every card with the word "Chandra" anywhere in the title, except where a foil version wasn't printed. In which case I've ordered the regular version.

I am about to have six Chandra's Outrage in my collection.

I was going to also include cards where Chandra appears in the flavour text, or that had Pyromancer anywhere on them ... but that is too many to fit in my little vanity cards box.

So screw that.
