Bro... why u gotta rip an artifact? Rip a common basic land if you gotta rip but why a card with rules on it? God, we get back to mtg after a while and wtf? Even wotc's making "legit" fakes? Aye yai yai. Now I'm worried, did I buy fakes? Did I remember seeing a funky corner on that one card?

How come they where showing you old school cards with modern cards. When they where clearly Don afterwards. Also most intriguing is . Just copying the same method creates cards through a individual who past worked there etc.

Loupe is the true way. Checking for the L shaped red ink dots in the green circle on the back. I walked into 2 friends trading. One tells me how happy he is to get a jace mind sculptor finally. Set version zendikar. Looked glossy, said buddy that looks fake, took out my loupe and no dots.. asked to over trade for it and im ripping it in half, on the condition its real trade stands, fake i get my stuff back. Ripped it and fake. Louis then went back and pulled out all the cards he traded from Sam before I walked in qnd there was dozens of them. Sam had unknowingly traded fakes which he purchased of card market the few weeks before so had to take it up with the sellers to get his money back. Louis and Sam now own a loupe.

Not trying to be a pessimistic here cause I appreciate what you are trying to do but I would be willing to be there are times you think something is fake and it is not and vice versa. A lot of tests beyond the magnifying glass are not good tests. The cards throughout time are printed differently. Even now people say fresh cracked cards feel glossy. So are they fake from wizards? The bend test is not bulletproof either because cars temp matters as an example. Age of the card matters. Condition. Etc. saying an old dual does not bend like a brand new card…well yeah that card was printed 30 years ago. The concern comes from putting this video out and now you flood the market with people saying “everything of value is fake” and if someone bends or rips and whatever to a nonfake…oops.

I don’t use “fake” cards, but usually play proxy cards in our local community if it is allowed. But. Saying that don’t use fakes because of WotC will have less money?!? They are so fckn ignorant about the game and the community… why should we care about them? I know some use fakes because the price of the cards are extremely high on the competitive lvl. This is why I use proxy cards. I won’t pay hundreds of dollars for a few lands. It’s absurd and could be easily solvable by reprinting them again and again in every sets. But no. Wizzard lets some very basic and “have to have” cards to be over 50 dollars?! Or even hundreds? Yeah. Poor wizzard. They could easily create a land box set and earn a lot but they don’t care so I don’t care. I can print my proxies and enjoy the game without paying for an ignorant company.

The reason why the fakes are getting so good is because the fake creators see videos like this. It's like ur doing a run down on what these scammers are doing wrong so they can fix their mistakes. Kinda messed up u can't share this kinda info these days without having that issue. Magic will probably magically disappear. Unless the creators come up with something unique and can't be copied. I'll be sure to use these techniques for now to help with that issue that's for sure.

i have no issue with proxy/fake cards as long as nobody tries to sell them as real ones. if they look indistinguishable and someone says "these are proxies" no issue there. personally i like them indistinguishable from the front but with a different cardback (for example removing the mtg logo text and just having the blank cardback)

@@Weaver_Games I think you're confusing proxies and counterfeits. That's how proxies are: they're obviously fake in some way. Pro's will use them because they don't want to damage their real copies. Counterfeits are used by scammers. The only surefire way is to never trade cards with people, or buy on Ebay. Buy from official vendors only. But if you play casual, you can talk with your group about building and playing only with decks on a limited budget. Scammers aren't going to bother with cards worth less than a dollar or two, there is no profit in it. I'd start getting wary at $4 and up. And you'll save yourselves hundreds of dollars by not chasing after high value cards.
