🃏 Proxy Policy & Accessibility
To promote accessibility and ensure anyone who wants to play can join the field, this tournament is 100% proxy-friendly. We want you to play the player, not their wallet.
To maintain competitive integrity and ensure a smooth experience for opponents and judges, all proxies must meet the following guidelines:
- Visual Clarity: Proxies must be full-color printouts of the actual Magic card artwork. Handwritten slips, sharpie on land cards, or black-and-white text prints are not permitted.
- Indistinguishable When Sleeved: The card must feel identical to a standard Magic card when inside a sleeve so that it cannot be identified from the back or sides of your deck.
- Acceptable Methods: You can achieve this using either of the following methods:
- A color paper printout neatly cut and inserted into a sleeve directly over a real basic land card.
- Cards professionally printed on cardstock that matches the exact thickness, weight, and pliability of an authentic Magic card.

🎁 The Prize Structure & Top 8 Point Matrix
Instead of walking away with standard booster packs, making the Top 8 guarantees you Event Points to spend directly on our live Prize Wall. This ensures you get to pick the exact cards or accessories you want.
💰 Prize Wall Economy: 1 Point = $5 USD of TCGplayer Market Value
Because tournament attendance completely powers our prize pool, total point payouts scale dynamically based on our final turnout. Furthermore, higher attendance will directly result in higher-value legacy staples being added to the live prize wall!
