Hello everyone!We're introducing a new rule for our constructed tournaments - "The 7 Proxy rule".
Only certain events will have this rule, and for now, only the Gauntlet series will have this rule.
The rule allows you to have 7 proxy cards in your deck. This means, you can use up to 7 cards you do not own for your decks by putting replacement cards that clearly represents the card that you want to play in your deck.
You may either print out a very clear copy of the card with readable text and insert it into your sleeves with a random magic card, or write down very clearly, the name of the card, the casting cost (use 'W','U','B','R','G' to represent white, blue, black, red, green mana symbols), card type with subtypes if any, and the rules text, including the power / toughness if any, on a piece of paper, and insert it into a sleeve with a random magic card.
Please note that as the rule name implies, you may only use up to SEVEN proxy cards in your deck.
Also note that you many only proxy very expensive cards or very hard to find cards. If you have the means to purchase the cards and it is available, you may not proxy it.
Exceptions will be made for special circumstances such as, you do own the card, but it has been on loan to a friend, or you have ordered the purchase of the card and it has not arrived yet. But the maximum card limit for proxies remains the same.
Hopefully this rule will allow players to play with better decks and have more fun playing their decks. :)
However, please be reminded that playing proxy cards for any sanctioned tournaments are not allowed and it is illegal.
