"Has Anyone Found a Reliable Proxy Maker MTG for Commander Decks?"
Yo, so I’m tired of shelling out $$$ for every single card in my Commander decks. I’ve tried a few proxy maker MTG sites, but some of ‘em look like they were printed on cereal boxes.
Anyone got a go-to proxy maker MTG that actually delivers decent quality? Like, crisp colors, good cardstock, and no blurry text? I don’t need *perfect* replicas, but I don’t wanna squint at my own proxies, y’know?
Bonus points if they ship fast—I’ve got a game night coming up and my deck’s missing like half the cards lol.
Drop your recs below! (And pls no scams, I’ve been burned before.)
I’ve had great luck with MakePlayingCards (MPC) for proxy maker MTG stuff. Their quality is solid—colors pop, text is sharp, and the cardstock feels close to real.
Downside? Shipping takes a week or two, so might not work for your game night. But if you’re planning ahead, 100% worth it.
Just make sure to use their template tool so the images fit right.
Yo, try out MTGPrint! Super easy to use—just upload your decklist, tweak the art if you want, and print at home.
Not as fancy as professional proxy maker MTG services, but if you’ve got decent paper and a good printer, they look legit across the table.
Plus, it’s FREE. Can’t beat that for last-minute fixes.
If you’re cool with waiting a bit, ProxiedMTG on Etsy does amazing work. I got a full Commander deck from them, and the proxies are *chef’s kiss*.
Colors are vibrant, and the finish is smooth. A bit pricier than DIY options, but worth it if you want that premium feel.
Just check their reviews first—some sellers are hit or miss.
Honestly, I just use Deckstats for proxy maker MTG needs. You can design proxies right there, export as PDF, and print at a local shop.
Not the fanciest, but it’s fast and cheap. I’ve used thicker paper (like 300gsm) and they hold up fine.
Bonus: You can customize the art if you’re into that.
Avoid those sketchy “too good to be true” proxy maker MTG sites. I got burned once—cards looked like they were dipped in Vaseline.
Now I stick with MPCFill. It’s a community-driven tool that auto-fills MPC orders with pre-sized images. Saves so much time, and the quality is consistent.
Shipping’s still slow tho.
For quick and dirty proxies, I just screenshot cards from Scryfall, paste into Word, and print on sticker paper. Slap ‘em on bulk commons.
Not glamorous, but it works in a pinch. Game night won’t wait for shipping!
If you want *real* proxy maker MTG quality, though, go with MPC.
Check out r/mpcproxies on Reddit. Tons of folks share high-res scans and templates for proxy maker MTG projects.
I’ve used their files with MPC, and the results are indistinguishable in sleeves. Plus, the community’s super helpful if you’re new to proxying.
Just don’t try to pass ‘em off as real, obv.
Wow, thanks for all the recs! MPCFill sounds perfect for my next order, but for now, I’ll try MTGPrint since my game night is in 3 days.
Quick Q tho—anyone know if local print shops care about printing proxies? Don’t wanna get weird looks lol.
Also, shoutout to the Etsy suggestion—definitely gonna check out ProxiedMTG for my blinged-out deck. Y’all are lifesavers!
If you’re in the US, ProxyKing has been my go-to for proxy maker MTG cards. They ship fast (got mine in 5 days), and the quality is solid—no blurry text or washed-out colors.
A bit more expensive than DIY, but if you need speed *and* quality, they’re a safe bet.
