Just kinda curious on which one is the top. Any reasons why you choose the one you did, appearance or in game use have an influence in your choice?

The One Ring, The Ring of Doom for two reasons:

First, he's a really good ring, like an upgraded version of AtaR, and sees pretty much play in Standard.

Second, he's the only ring I don't have :( so I'd pick him. And having it even foil...  ;)

And you forgot to mention The One Ring, The Ruling Ring*** from TTT. He's foiled really nice.

Opps must have skipped right on past that one lol. I will get it in, in just a second.

Thanks

Edited to say, I think I will just leave it with the rares for now. Although I would love to have them all listed most of the commons are kinda really close in appearance.

Such a Weight to Carry is the only ring I have foiled, but as an exclusive Movie Block player, I'd have to say the One Ring, Answer to All Riddles.

The only foiled ones that I have now are Shadows, Reflections, and Ages Ends. I would love to see the TT and ROTK, I think I would be torn between them two.

Ring of Doom foil is amazingly pretty.  I'd definitely say it's between AtaR and RoD, but since I mainly play standard I'm going with RoD.

such a weight is my most favorite, but the great ring and ring of doom are clearly the strongest rings

Favourite: 15RF1 - Pulled from pack once.

Nicest to look at: 4C1 4C2 (foil) - I have had all foil rings at one stage and this one stands out the most in the binder imo.

15RF1 and 4C1 4C2 foil are the only two rings that the entire card was foiled, the rest of them have some part of the card (ring or bubbles) foiled. That's why I think these two look the best.

As for game play, The Ring of Rings finds it's way into most of my standard decks, and atar into most movie decks.

I like the foiled version of the Ring of Doom most, as well for many reasons:
- very cool picture to begin with
- picture made even better by foiling it
- game play is very cool, only ATAR comes close IMHO.

Def going with NB on this one; I loveee the Great Ring. It's just asking to be used and abused over and over.

Why was the Binding Ring (P) included in this survey? I don't see any reason for that to be included as it is not a different ring than The One Ring, the Binding Ring in game text.

Also, whose favorite ring is The Binding Ring?! Really?!
