Pick any 10 magic cards you'd love to own just don't do multiples of the same card... here is my list

Bloodstained Mire judge foil

Gaea's Cradle full art

Mutavault full art

Badlands alpha

Black Lotus alpha

All 5 mox from alpha

There are many card I like in Magic, but my favorite has to be Bitterblossom . Flavor, art, and power all meeting on one of the best tribal cards of all time. I'd take one if I could.

When I read no multiples, my heart sank. I'll take 10 Russian Foil Karn Liberated even though you said no multiples. I'm pretty sure people will say the Power 9+1 or Original Duals in a heartbeat.

If I ignore value I'd go for the full art promo Serra Avenger , foil Karn Liberated , foil Arid Mesa , foil Sacred Foundry , a Plateau , foil Ajani Vengeant , foil Mox Opal , foil Iroas, God of Victory , foil Myr Superion , promo Myr Superion . I mean, maybe things would be a tiny bit different but that is what I had in mind. haha

From a value and playability perspective I'd go with the 9 fetchlands + something else because then I'd have some high value cards that I could use in competitive play. But then...... I don't really think they're fun so I think I'd go with -

  1. Liliana of the Veil because I used to have loads of them but sold before her price went up massively, which annoyed me so much I've never bought one again!
  2. Dark Confidant because I like his art and I've never bothered to buy one.
  3. Tarmogoyf because I like his art and never bothered to buy one.
  4. Vizzerdrix because it's the first card I owned.
  5. Blade of the Sixth Pride in foil because it's pretty.
  6. Mana Crypt because it's really awesome and I never bothered to buy one.
  7. Athreos, God of Passage because I don't have one yet and he fits perfectly into loads of my decks.
  8. Tamiyo, the Moon Sage because scrolls, scrolls everywhere.
  9. Intruder Alarm because it's a part of magic combo history.
  10. full art Damnation because I think it's pretty.

I don't think I'd go with the power 9 because I like to actually play the game, and given that they're banned in everything but vintage, I view them as pointless and just completely frivolous. If you go with the power 9 it's kind of like saying 'I like money, but not necessarily having a fun time', which isn't how I approach things.

SwiftDeath says... #14

I would go for the 10 most expensive cards in Magic so I could sell them for playsets of cards I really need. I know Im terrible for doing so but a playset of Goyf, Bob, Lili, True Name, JtMS, original duels, Fetches and others doesn't come cheap and I would take all the value I could get.

ChiefBell says... #15

That's a smart response.

My answer is the same as SwiftDeath.

Power 9 and Library of Alexandria.

Panda213 says... #18

ChiefBell just reminded me about the full art Damnation , I'm swapping this in place of one of the mox because I thinks it's one of the coolest looking cards I've seen

April 28, 2014 7:26 a.m.

Putrefy says... #19

I would have one blue Hurricane rated 9.5 please :) and then sell it and buy every other Magic Card ever printed.

April 28, 2014 7:43 a.m.

guessling says... #20

I want what I know I will use for sure:

  1. Oona, Queen of the Fae
  2. Edric, Spymaster of Trest
  3. Knotvine Mystic
  4. Dimir House Guard
  5. Nim Deathmantle
  6. Deathrender
  7. Eidolon of Countless Battles
  8. Force of Will
  9. Scion of Oona
  10. Phenax, God of Deception

Cards that I might like if they weren't so ridiculous include Forcefield , swords, and various tutors - although I am not totally sure what I would remove for all of them and they don't necessarily fit a deck strategy specifically so I may run the risk of getting them and not actually using them because I need the deckslot for something more tailored to the theme.

IF I was to make an actual response, it would probably be:

Liliana of the Veil

Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth

Scrubland

Marsh Flats

Dark Confidant (not MMA)

Thoughtseize Lorwyn

Ashen Rider Japanese foil extended art signed

-10. Foil Worst Fears because I love the artwork.

megawurmple says... #23

Hmm... This is a tricky one. I'd have to go with (in no particular order):

1) Full art Mutavault
2) MMA Sword of Fire and Ice
3) Full art Electrolyze (I need to have another one!)
4) Bitterblossom foil
5) Dark Confidant
6) Sword of Light and Shadow
7) Tarmogoyf
8) Scalding Tarn
9) Misty Rainforest
10) Black Lotus (just so I can buy all of my other favourite cards)

Full bgs 10.0 alpha power + an unlimited hp lotus for vintage, so I could sell and buy unlimited power and play vintage and then a crap ton of fbb duals, and another sports care

Caligula says... #26

November 25, 2014 1:21 p.m.

-Fulcrum says... #32

Damn this thread is old. And not much has changed since my original list. Though instead of Avacyn, I want a full art playset of Treasure Cruise. Or foil.

November 25, 2014 1:50 p.m.

nayrash5 says... #33

The cards that I really want arn't power nine, save recall, but JtMS is probably more expensive then Black Lotus atm. I really wish that Russian cards were cheeper, they look so badass.

Playset of Foil Russian Jace the Mind Sculptor

Beta Ancestral Recall

Foil Russian Stoneforge Mystic

Foil Russian Snapcaster Mage signed by Taigo Chan

The Tabernacle of Pendril Vale

Judge Foil Force of Will

English Imperial Seal

November 25, 2014 3:58 p.m.

Added to my list.

November 25, 2014 5:53 p.m.

All five of the Mardu and Esper ABUR duals, a promo Elesh Norn, foil Griselbrand and Avacyn, Angel of Hope, and Sword of Light and Shadow not the MMA one. A foil Mox Diamond might also be nice. Was that even printed in MMA? I don't remember.

Rhys the RedeemedOverbeing of Myth

There are others... these are all I can think of off the top of my head.

November 25, 2014 7:06 p.m.

Dalektable says... #37

Hm, Interesting. I would just say Moxes and ABUR duels, but i would simply sell them for cards i actually want. So cards I would actually like to own? A foil Liliana of the Veil would be pretty sweet and I would show it off to everyone. I'd also like to own a Jace, the Mind Sculptor just to say I do, and foil/foreign language applies to all of these as well. It'd be nice to have a Tarmo, as well as any of the zendikar fetches.

November 25, 2014 9:44 p.m.

power 9 and replace Timetwister with Omniscience + Kaalia of the Vast
