Reserved List Proxies
Wizards of the Coast has pledged never to reprint Reserved List cards, so their real prices only climb — which makes them the most-proxied cards in Magic. These are the Reserved List cards players proxy most, each with its live market price next to the $0.50 playtest-proxy price.
Build them into 18-card sheets in the singles builder or drop them into any imported deck at $0.40/card.
