Proxies

What's a proxy?

A cheap substitute for a card. I use proxies only if Im going to get the card just haven't gotten my hands on it yet. Also are they allowed at FNM or anything?

It's usually up to the judge. Sometimes they'll let you proxy if you have like 3 {Cavern of Souls} and don't have the 4th, but not if you built a deck around {Bonfire of the Damned} and don't have any.

Officially, proxies are only allowed at events if made my a judge, and only if there is a good reason (lost/stolen/damaged).  However, if a casual FNM wants to allow proxies, they can make their own rules.  Just don't expect it, and especially not at a formal event.

I just write on the card name that I'm proxying on a basic land with a sharpie.  It's a great way to play test a card if you're not sure if you want to spend the money.  Of course, I only do this in a casual environment.  I have yet to go to an FNM that allows proxies.

I really despise of proxies.

I really despise of proxies.

Agreed.
I hate it when people play a mountain "Bonfire of the Dammed" to kill me.
