[ZEN] Vintage cards in Zendikar Packs.

http://forums.mtgsalvation.com/showthread.php?t=186581

http://www.quietspeculation.com/2009...resindeed.html

It seems a card shop owner in Ohio was cracking packs and pulled a Candelabra of Tawnos.

Seems somewhat legit, but a bit far-fetched.

Edit: Fixed 2nd link

Re: Possible Hoax, Possible Truth

They are just trying to get gullible little kids to go to their prerelease. Read the cover story with that view and tell me you honestly believe otherwise. The second link is dead.

I'm getting very sick of, every time we see a cool creature - or any card - so many people just go "But it dies to (random kill card X). Yes, there are answers to it. But you know what? There are answers to those answers. That's the beauty of the game. Look at a card based on its own merits, don't just think "Terror, next" or "Naturalize, next" or "Cancel, next". Cause if you think that way, then every card sucks. The game sucks. Even those answers you just listed SUCK.

GET OVER IT.




That is all.

Re: Possible Hoax, Possible Truth

Personally I'm not sold either.

However, the store owner is leaving himself open to fraud if it's fake.

Last time I opened a Lorwyn booster, Syphon jumped out and kicked me in the nuts. I can show you a picture so it must be true!

Re: Possible Hoax, Possible Truth

He can't be sued for fraud as there is no way to prove he was lying.

@Tekk: Dude, the same thing happened to me, but with Time Spiral.

If it's true, cool. If not, oh well no loss.

Although if it is true it could make for an awkward limited draft.

There's a rule that in draft you can only use cards you open that are from that set.

So, in this situation, these cards are actually more useless than a full art basic land

Say it is confirmed all you want. Until I see one opened for my own eyes, I don't believe this.
