This channel is your source of knowledge on printing, designing and using proxies. Our focus is on Magic the Gathering proxies, but the same techniques can be applied to most card games. Around here, we don't think prices and availability should regulate what cards you can and cannot play with. You'll find information on how to use print proxies yourself, use photoshop templates to create proxies, and how you can think when you play with proxies.
Always remember the golden rules of proxies:
* You can't use proxies on official events
* Check that your playgroup is okay with proxies
* Never sell or trade proxies

This was a MASSIVE help.
Hey guys! Does anyone know what the delivery to Europe is like please? Or a good proxy place for Europe please:) thankyou!
How do these feel compared to real cards? Similar?
so real quick question but if some of the text is outside the red box that means it would be cut out of the poxy when they print it correct?
Correct, my best solution is to manually edit the card to make it fit
what would you recommend for the edit as there isnt a way on the site@@MoMoVsMTG
My first order attempt got flagged for copyrighted design. It was the plain yugioh back because I thought it would be hilarious. But learn from my mistake and do NOT use the lifelike card backs, because your order will get flagged and MPC takes ~ 24h+ to respond to your support ticket emails. lol cucked
The cost of shipping is greater than the cost of the proxies for shipments in South America. I'd love to afford this method.
So we got to see everything except the important part... The product and How the cards turned out! that would have made for a more useful video rather than just showing us all how to use a website....
How much would it cost to make a Edh deck?
Whats the name of the background music? So chill

18 business days is roughly a month.
A wonderful service for those of us proxying for the first time!
Amazing video thank you!!
I tried it for custom cards I made. It kept cutting off. Before I order. Cause I don't want to pay if it's not going to work right. I made them on magic set editor program.
Still works ! 2023 ❤
I have no problems with trading or selling proxies if the other person knows they are buying/trading for a proxy. Most MTG cards are worth less than a well done proxy.
I was thinking about using this website to make higher quality custom tokens. This video really helped me make my decision. I don't typically use proxies of actual cards, but I do love my tokens being unique.
Can you share a project from one account to another remotely ? Let's say a friend do his project on his computer, can he send it to me so I can do the order for us?
Thanks for the tutorial. Love the music. Track name?
This does not show you how to Print Proxies. This is how to ORDER Proxies.
This is such an excellent guide, thank you very much!
I've been making custom cards for my cube with artificer and no matter what I do, whether I upscale them or not, they don't fit the mold? Even if I use MTG cardsmith. Do you know anything about this.
That music is great. What song it is? The video very good as well.
Great video. Really helped me out. Thank you for this!
Did the prices like doubled since you made the video or I’m doing something wrong?
I’m currently in the middle of running the script and uploading my first ever fully proxied edh deck. Thanks for all the pointers and tips, especially the saved projects walkthrough because I will be using that to order 6 commander decks at a time to save on shipping costs and split up the time requirement into 6 different days. Since it has been quite awhile since this video uploaded, I might suggest covering the changes that were made to the fill site along with the github structure changes as well
How was the card quality?
@@notcreative8325 very good
What if I want a historic version of a card?
5:10 mpcfill has plenty of variants to choose from.
why does this process not work. I think there are many details that are left out. I get generate order and its nothing like video. I am following steps that are not working. I think this video is semi trash. I have been trying to do an order for 3 weeks and it feels pointless. I get to generate order and its nothing like the video.
HELP! other card games like digimon do not have the auto fill option. Will u do a video in how to do this with those cards. For me they always end up low resolution or chopped
did u need to adjust the brightness at all?
So it's nice, however with the cost of living going up in general 3 years ago I was able to print proxies at half the price it is at now...like in 3 years it's doubled...the game is fun but you can't properly budget your life with the price of some real cards if you have other hobbies and make less than 100k yearly
Thank you! you have a video showing the quality of the cards?
song name?
New to magic, why dont more people use this instead? Is it that unpopular?
Because people want to support wizards but don’t have the money to. People who do (mostly adults) are able to and choose to because they’re making the game they love.
Like he mentioned, you can't use them in sanctioned events. So you either can use them for casual play, commander, and for your cube. Usually people only proxy the expensive cards since LGS won't be able to make a sale regardless.
Before I put in my order, I want to get some clarification. If I'm using the original frame and art for a card, like how it looks in its original printing will this cause me problems with the printing company?
Too often I've seen players trade real cards for realistic looking proxies. People bring their cards into the store to sell or trade, and I hate telling them that those supposedly expensive cards that they traded someone for are fakes.
how do you make the cards foil? I see the option in the autofill website but I don't see the option on the actual order
It is under the print type option on the order page!
@@machine_hell What option would it be from the dropdown? Would it be Holographic Front?
@@HotShot8723did you ever figure this out
Thank you, the website for ordering can be a bit intimidating. The shipping price seems a bit high, might be one of those things where it makes sense to do a big order vs a tiny order.
They ship from Hong Kong
yes, but a full edh deck just costed me only about $35 as opposed to $250 so im all for it lol
I’m building rashmi Ragavan and tivit teller of secrets both are pricey pricey. This process is worth my time and wallet
Mtg is actually pay to win, I end up using proxy in the tournament and man it felt bad ended 2 place mostly likely the other play played with proxies, I drop out to prove my point
Thank you very much for this, I don't proxy and don't plan to proxy, But am working on my own set of Custom tokens to go with my EDH decks because I want to have my own custom tokens as apposed to the wizards made tokens.
Are they actually any problems with the bleeding of the actual card? They mention that you need to make a frame for the bleeding of the card to make sure there are no problems when getting your order as good as it can be. Anyone is doing the actual bleeding thing or is just pointless to do it?
Great guide!
Any video that shows the actual product you received?
Excellent video! I do have a question, when making proxies does the front need to explicitly say proxy on it or can I just use the art that the original card uses?
It doesn’t matter cause the backs are gonna be different from the original and they don’t have the foil stamps
@@tonymorgan8671 Do you think mpc would have an issue with double sided cards at all? I assume they would but I'm hoping not.
@@LaBarofSoap It's not a problem
Can't use proxies in fnm lol
What we dont see the result 🤔
I just did an order of 612 cards thought it would be really quick and it's took forever to make sure double sided cards were correct and all the artwork was what i wanted. Took forever but super excited for it to get here
Mpc fill is not working is there an alternative?
So all quantity means is how many orders you want of a specific list.
I was trying to wrap my head around the juxtaposition of those numbers for a solid 3-4 minutes. Thanks for simplifying it in such a concise way.
i get a "failed to execute script" when i run the .exe (different folder with only cards.xml file in)
