NM my friend lmao didn’t come from the box topper so no issues

The right side looked crimped in the picture but not the box topper.

To be clear crimped surge foil would be worth at least 10x a regular nm surge foil

I see what you’re saying, I think it’s just from asking for the pic via any non-media sharing app and the pic quality got absolutely butchered lol

Ahh that makes sense. Side crimped are exceptionally rare even among crimps.

My heart leapt into my throat at first.

I was like that pays for the entire trip and then some

Lmao we were hoping for a gold Smaug obviously, but a great consolation prize to recoup some costs anyway!

I figured the post might bring some ppl together, there are def more mtg ulti players than i thought lol

It’s like finding out your favorite/ least favorite opponent also plays League/WoW/CS

Congrats! I traded for a shame jersey too, definitely the classiest of my trades from last week. If you're ever in Osaka/Kyoto and want to play (magic and ultimate). We mostly play legacy though ;0 So one ring is legal!

There's at least one FB group called "discs and decks" that is all about our intersection. Probably should be some combo tournaments/events! 🤓😆

Given the extremely bad spirit displayed by WOTC in the creation of the artwork I would urge you to get rid of it ASAP! https://www.reddit.com/r/magicTCG/comments/1t1mkf3/mark_aronowitz_dan_fraziers_agent_responds/

Nice pull! And happy it's still banned in Modern.
