The fact that these are going to fall under the 'Limited Release Policy' is one of the many reasons I pay a bit more than avg. for very nice & real looking proxies. Honestly, with proxying the newer cards (even with the triangle sticker like these have or the regular oval one) I find them almost indistinguishable from WotC cards, while they are sleeved. The only problems I have in proxying an older card from sets like revised/legends, it is very hard for it not to be obvious that it is fake. (especially on white bordered older cards) There is nothing you can do to the white area of those cards you get the certain 'look' the normal cards from that time period have. I guess it is very similar to creating a patina on a fake antique item. Didn't know I was going to end up making a huge post in support of proxies, but as long as your LGS doesn't care & you are purchasing them for your own personal use & not scamming... Go for it, especially with all of the predatory techniques that Hasbro conducts with this game.
Sorry in advance for having two seperate post that are the size of small novels. I clicked on this to sat, I really am hoping and holding out for a Grixis colored Nightcrawler. Like, if I get him in those colors or even Jeskai... I will be happy. If he ends up with an ability similar to the Transformer Legendary Creature, Slicer, as a way to represent his powers of telepirtation it woukd be neat; especialy if he gives you a benefit that triggers when the control of him changes. Going out on a limb with this one because he isn't as widely knowni the overall X-Men story & doesn't appear in the MCU so I doubt Hasbro will use him, but the healer/hurter mutant named Elixir would be sweet. He has side-mutation that changes his biology on a chemical level when he swaps his powers. He strikes a cool appearence with his healing form. His body looks as if it is solid gold, even his eyes shimmer with the same color &u he has the ability to manipulate the genetic make up, DNA & cells of any living being which grants him an omega level in Healing powers. (Represent him as the side you cast of a DFC, this side being Mono-White with lifelink & an ability that gains life as well as a seperate ability that triggers whenever another creature you control dies, then he exiles himself & returns as his flip side, which is Mono-Black) His Metallic Black fom comes with its own seperate set of powers. With this form, he gains the ability to destroy the molecues of any living being & can make them succumb to any modern day virus or disease with a simple touch. He can also initiate the growth of cancerous tumors. (his black power-set should definitely be represented with him being a pretty strong P/T card with Deathtouch & Infect. Keep his triggered ability that happens whenever a creature dies ((this time make it state "enemey creature dies")) you can maybe pay 4 life & if you do, that creature's controller gets a poison counter... Man, one can only wish. haha
Captain America is just too cool for me. Red White and Blue cost is just perfect. I wanted to make Tetsuo before but this just looks like a straight upgrade.
Bro, literally thought the same thing. I wanted to build an equipment deck for Tetsuo, but then MTG just dropped this and there is no contest. Big fan of my boy, Captain America! Glad Wizards brought it to Commander.
Hopefully after that Monty python cerfuffle they’ll have way more stock for these and won’t sell out immediately, but if you really really want one be ready to check on them within the first hour or two. They go up 9am pst on November 4th, that’s noon in Est
With these being mechanically unique cards that won't get reprinted as in-universe versions for at Least 6months I'd say if not as soon as it goes live then within the first hour if you really want a chance at getting either all or your choice of whoever
The fact these aren't print to demand while being at 40 and 50 only hurts wotc honestly cuz obviously people are willing to pay the price hike for the hype of marvel and these are just the 1st SLs imagine the next 5 years of this stuff being pumped out

Captain America looks too good to pass up tbh
@@PubStompMTG What about Strionic Resonator? Would that work?
Bro, literally thought the same thing. I wanted to build an equipment deck for Tetsuo, but then MTG just dropped this and there is no contest. Big fan of my boy, Captain America! Glad Wizards brought it to Commander.
Good thing a buddy of mine can get proxies for cheap
Captain America looks so cool
I’m really excited for black panther. Jacked rabbit and llanowar reborn will be nutty in that deck
Dude this is nuts
Absolutely!
I’m getting all of them can’t wait to build Storm
Storm looks stupid powerful!
@@PubStompMTG extra combat and turns for free basically
Im building storm for a strong deck and Wolverine for a fun deck
Wolverine is very fun, built a deck around the fight mechanic to pretest before I got the actual cards. It hits hard and fast!
As a Marvel fanboy I’m planning to build all 5 😬
And there's more to come lol
Iron man is going in my tomb raider deck
Now thats a top notch choice
How fast do these secret lair collabs usually sell out im a bit new to MTG
This one is a different beast with marvel. Who knows tbh. I plan on being there within the first hour tbh

I am building Ironman he is my favorite marvel character lol
Completely get it. Ironman looks amazing!
Will Simulacrum Synthesizer be a great for Ironman? Pubstomb mtg
@@Francisco-qc1rb it absolutely would! As long as you have a decent amount of high cmc artifacts etb. Its a great wincon
@@PubStompMTG Will Simulacrum Synthesizer be a great add for Ironman
@@PubStompMTG yeah I will be putting in there in my iron man deck can’t wait
I need that Sol Ring and Arcane Signet. But not for the price tbh, looks like imma have to proxy
Completely get it!
These not being Print To Demand is so unfortunate
Which totally should have been
The fact these aren't print to demand while being at 40 and 50 only hurts wotc honestly cuz obviously people are willing to pay the price hike for the hype of marvel and these are just the 1st SLs imagine the next 5 years of this stuff being pumped out
