Obviously the biggest trump card against burn is Leyline of Sanctity. Drop that t0 of game 2 and they will have major problems. At the very least they'll waste a turn Wear // Tear-ing it and not doing damage.

Golgari Charm, imo, is a sideboard card.

I would probably play this like a BG rock deck as it is almost there anyway. 4 Abrupt Decay, 4 Maelstrom Pulse, maybe 4 Inquisition of Kozilek in the mainboard to go with Thoughseize. That's a crap ton of disruption that is sure to mess up anyone's gameplan.

+ 4 Inquisition of Kozilek
-4 Golgari Charm
-2 Putrid Leech
+ Lotleth Troll
-2 ...something, maybe land
+2 Maelstrom Pulse

SB - Sideboard is always meta specific. If you find specific cards better for your LGS, run them.
-4 Extirpate
+3 Surgical Extraction (I've rarely seen split second here be useful)
+3 Golgari Charm
-2 Putrefy (you already have plenty of disruption)
-1 Crime // Punishment (this seems like a solid card in this deck)
-1 Rain of Tears (Fulminator Mage would be better, but it's pricey. Hopefully the reprint brings it down a lot.)
+2 Leyline of Sanctity

I can all but confirm this occurs after trades. Attachment shows, separately, 2 Kher Keeps and 1 Kher Keep (the Time Spiral ones). Attachment in the next post is a trade that I completed about 10 days ago where I traded for 1.

Maelstrom Pulse is the go-to removal after Abrupt Decay imo.

The two responses  above are correct. However, Boros Charm works just fine as Indestructible doesn't prevent damage. (Rule 701.12)

i have every prerelease card up to theros.

Take a look at my list and see if anything looks interesting to you. I'd prefer to trade for the oldest promos you have as people are less likely to have those.

Lu Bu, Master-at-arms has 2 Prelease Promo printings. One with the datestamp April 29, 1999 (the one you have) and one with the datestamp July 4, 1999. They both have a card number of 115. Not sure what to do there.

MTGImage got shut down cause WotC is a big jerk.

It wouldn't be particularly easy, but ABUGames has images of many of the cards for Renaissance/Renascimento. FBB Revised can be found on ABU as well, but that would also be time consuming. For FBB 4th there are a low number of cards with pictures.

At the very least here is a list for French and German Renaissance and Italian Renascimento and they can be added without pictures for the time being.

This is a friendly reminder that World Championship decks, Renaissance,  Renascimento, Foreign Black Bordered (revised) and Fourth Edition: Black Bordered are still missing and that Promo Set for Gatherer can be removed.

You ninja deleted your question!

Looks like German FBB Twiddle is Renaissance.

Sebi knows that FBB is requested. I'm sure it's on his to-do list.

It depends on the language. The black bordered cards are whatever the first print run in that language was, whether it was Unlimited, Revised, 4th w/e. White bordered cards were introduced to indicate reprints. Since these were the first print runs in that language they were given black borders.

Doing a little interweb research reveals that 4th edition was the first printing of Asian languages. Italian, French, and German were first printed in Revised. There is also the FBB set called Renaissance. For German and French it contained the cards intended to be in 4th edition that weren't previously printed in that language. For Italian it contained the cards to be in 4th and Chronicles that weren't previously printed in Revised, Legends, or The Dark.

Fourth edition was printed in black border for Portuguese, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, and Traditional Chinese.

Simplified Chinese was first printed for 5th edition, but in white borders.

This article I think has all of the information you're looking for. As for the value of the cards, I don't know much about that. Obviously collectors will value FBB higher than white bordered, but that's a really difficult thing to put a value on. I'm sure there is a facebook group and I wouldn't be surprised if there was an entire website dedicated to the valuation of FBB cards, but I just don't know what/where they are.

The best way to mark FBB cards is the same as any other card: Correct set, correct language, correct condition ect. The value of these cards vary way too much for Sebi to try and track each of them individually and I think it is unreasonable to ask him to track down pictures of every single printing in every language. People that will want to trade for these cards most likely already know they are black bordered and if they don't you can just tell them and then tell them the value that you place on it. As with everything, they're only worth what people are willing to pay for them (or in this case trade).

Perhaps it might be worth adding another card property (similar to foil) for FBB to remove any confusion. Thoughts, Sebi?

Since there is a character limit for what can be displayed for feedback text that same limit should also be in place for the field when entering the feedback. Would also be nice to have a counter letting us know how many characters we have left. It's kind of annoying that if you enter long feedback that the end of it just gets chopped off without warning.

Looks like the ones that were posted yesterday were leaked, not spoiled. The account that posted the list on MTGSalvation was 100% correct with the list that it leaked for MMA so there's a good chance it's real. Still though, the list should be taken with a grain of salt.

Hmmm, maybe there are just a site-wide default settings when adding cards through that dialog. Chaim or Sebi, do you have any idea if that might be the case?

1) Browse to your inventory page.
2) In the upper-right mouse-over Import.
3) Select Cards from the drop-down list.

Inventory defaults will be below and to the right of the field where you enter the card name.
