Thank the judge who trained me (I think his name is Kevin D. but it's been a long time). He was a cool guy, and was the only reason I ever got into judging. He usually needed help at some of the tourneys he'd run by himself as judge/TO back then.

Is it acceptable to enlist someone to help me create proxies if the design is similar to MTG but not a copyright infringement?

Most proxies use WotC trademarked material. it is illegal to manufacture for profit goods with trademarked material (art, mana symbols, card design, card back, etc), and as such motl doesnt allow their manufacture or sales here. You're welcome to make your own, for your own use. the Gaming Etc proxies do not use anything owned by wotc, and are perfectly legal productions (which probably have their own associated trademarks, and shouldnt be reproduced either). Additionally, most vintage tourneys that allow proxies have certain requirements, most being 'basic land with sharpie', so that you and the judges know exactly which 10/15/whatever proxies your opponent has.

Fly over you. No, really. My pool had 13 fliers in it. I think I ran 10. Rise of the Eagles, 2 Supply-Line Cranes, an Ornitharch, 2 3/2 flash dudes, Chorus of the Tides, Anvilwrought Raptor, Wingsteed Rider to go along with Wavecrash Titan, Hundred-handed One, Eidolon of Countless Battles, Lagonna-Band 0/4 dude. That's not all but I don't remember. Basically if I got to 4 mana you were in bad shape and if I hit six you lost.

Then the top 8 drafted... ugh. The two people to my right played the final while I scrubbed. To me, that means I did a really poor job of drafting. I'm not surprised, just kinda bummed. But on the whole, today was a good day. I had two teammates there and they both also top 8'ed.

it isnt 'infinite', because it always ends when your opponents die.

Does anyone have any experience printing onto card stock, and would help me create custom cards?

Holy crap! Is this the same event deck that's been pre-selling around $80?

I do these for the proxy vintage events I run

I did a grid in filemaker pro that prints landscape 3 cards by 2 cards.
I then tape pealed foils down to the "test page" and run it through the manual feed slot in the laser printer

Modern players are so bad, I bet a pro can probably top 8 with this. I know I felt awful going 4-1 with the stoneforge event deck at FNM the week before rotation.

Probably not terribly competitive, but from a value perspective (quick browse of TCGPlayer):

Elspeth is currently ~ $17
Playset of the the checklands ! $20
Sword is ~ $20 card
3 Path to Exile ~$15-20.
3 Honor of the Pure ~$6
3 Kataki ~6-9

Value wise I think it's very good at the $75 MSRP.

There are going to be some very disappointed ebayers who pre-bought them on ebay for $100+

And you're missing the $20 in City of brass $20 for Windbrisk Heights (yes they sell for $5each) and $12 in Caves of Koilos.

If you go Full Retail (SCG) the lands and Mythics are more then the MSRP
