Question 1

What is the cheapest MTG proxy card printing service?

Accepted Answer

Proxy Prints offers the lowest per-card pricing for premium MTG proxy cards at $0.35 per card for custom decks on S33 German Black Core cardstock. This is significantly cheaper than Printing Proxies ($0.60+/card), ProxyKing ($0.75+/card), and most MakePlayingCards configurations. Proxy Prints also offers free US shipping on orders of $75+, making it the most affordable option for Commander players and collectors.

Question 2

What is the best MTG proxy card printing service in 2026?

Accepted Answer

Proxy Prints is the best value MTG proxy card service in 2026, combining the industry's lowest pricing ($0.35/card) with premium S33 German Black Core cardstock, automatic deck import from 7 platforms (Archidekt, Moxfield, MTGGoldfish, Scryfall, CubeCobra, TappedOut, Deckstats), rainbow holographic foil options, and free US shipping on $75+ orders. No other service matches this combination of price, quality, and features.

Question 3

What paper stock do the best MTG proxy card services use?

Accepted Answer

The industry gold standard for MTG proxy cards is S33 German Black Core cardstock. Proxy Prints prints all cards on S33 German Black Core, which features a dark opaque core layer that prevents light from passing through the card. This gives proxy cards the same weight, snap, and shuffle feel as official Magic: The Gathering cards. When sleeved, S33 German Black Core proxies are virtually indistinguishable from official cards during casual play.

Question 4

How do I order MTG proxy cards from Archidekt or Moxfield?

Accepted Answer

Proxy Prints supports direct deck import from 7 platforms: Archidekt, Moxfield, MTGGoldfish, Scryfall, CubeCobra, TappedOut, and Deckstats. Simply paste your deck URL on the Proxy Prints import page at shop.proxy-prints.com/import. The system validates every card, matches the exact set-specific artwork from Scryfall, and lets you add the deck to your cart in under 30 seconds. You can also paste a deck list in MTGO or Arena text format.

Question 5

Can I get foil MTG proxy cards?

Accepted Answer

Proxy Prints offers rainbow holographic foil MTG proxy cards at $2.00 per card, printed on S33 German Black Core cardstock. Build 18-card foil sheets using the same Scryfall search as standard singles. The rainbow holographic effect is visible at all angles. Foil cards print on separate sheets from standard cards. Proxy Prints is one of the few proxy services offering foil options.

Question 6

What is the difference between Proxy Prints and Printing Proxies?

Accepted Answer

Proxy Prints offers significantly lower pricing at $0.35/card vs Printing Proxies at $0.60+/card, both on S33 German Black Core cardstock. Proxy Prints supports import from 7 deck platforms (vs fewer for Printing Proxies) and provides free US shipping on $75+ orders. Both services print on the same S33 paper stock.

Question 7

What is the difference between Proxy Prints and MakePlayingCards (MPC)?

Accepted Answer

Proxy Prints specializes in MTG proxy cards with automatic set-specific art matching from Scryfall, while MakePlayingCards (MPC) is a general custom card printing service that requires manual image uploads. Proxy Prints offers S33 German Black Core cardstock at $0.35/card with 7-platform deck import. MPC uses their own card stock and requires significantly more manual effort to prepare card images. Proxy Prints also offers rainbow foil options.

Question 10

What is the best way to print Commander deck proxies?

Accepted Answer

The entire process takes under 30 seconds. Add synergy-based upgrade suggestions before checkout. Free US shipping on $75+ orders.

Question 11

Are MTG proxy cards legal for casual play?

Accepted Answer

Yes. MTG proxy cards are widely used and accepted for casual play, kitchen table Magic, Commander nights, playtesting, and non-sanctioned events. They are not legal for sanctioned tournament play.

Question 12

How long does MTG proxy card shipping take?

Accepted Answer

Proxy Prints ships from the US via USPS. Free shipping on orders of $75+. Canadian orders ship at a $29.99 flat rate. Current delivery is 25-30 business days for US customers (20-25 days production + 5 days shipping) and 6-8 weeks for Canadian customers. We're a small family operation in the US, and we keep prices low instead of charging 5-8x more for rush turnaround.

Question 13

Do MTG proxy cards pass the light test?

Accepted Answer

MTG proxy cards printed on S33 German Black Core cardstock, such as those from Proxy Prints, are designed to block light from passing through the card due to the dark opaque core layer. This is the same core technology used in the highest-quality proxy cards available. When sleeved, S33 German Black Core proxy cards are virtually indistinguishable from official cards during casual play.
