Title: Oversized
Post by: Ptsgpbk on June 04, 2014, 08:50:54 AM
What is the point in oversized cards? I really feel like getting some but don't know how I would use them

They are generally for your Commander in an EDH match. A novelty. I dunno if you'll find them in anything but Creature types.

Before the Commander series, a select few cards were made in oversized versions. They're pretty difficult to find though, and like I said, it was only a select few cards.

It's strictly aesthetic value. I hold on to em for that one guy that we all dream of that's like "An oversize {Sharuum the Hegemon}?!?! Here, have my car!"

Pardon my nerdgasm, but if that exists, I need it. Wizards makes planewalkers novels and there is one about Tezzeret, with her in it. Test of Metal by Mattew Stover, one of the greatest books in existence
