Proxy Magic Cards
Proxy Magic the Gathering cards are designed to "stand in" for the real card, but typically do not pass as the real card upon a visual inspection by an opponent or judge. This may be due to a variety of reasons:
The card back is not the standard MTG card back.
The artwork is not Magic: The Gathering artwork. (Could be your favorite anime, superhero, or TV show, etc.)
The card lacks copyright information, or other details that are prohibited by most printing shops due to copyright laws.
These cards are typically great for casual, proxy-friendly environments that don't mind cards that appear fake even from a far glance.
