I would say so. As long as you aren't abusing the secondary market to proxy cards that are totally out of reach for your play group's power level

If proxies are allowed, then why wouldn't everyone in said group reconfigure their decks to include their clutch cards? That sounds like an unnecessary and illogical parameter, and implies an unavoidable need by the group to purchase their cards "normally" to feel that they're doing it correctly. 🤌🏼

Brings us right back to "Fuck WotC, GW, CMON, etc.", eh? 🤷🏽‍♂️

Speaking as a player that doesn't use proxies, if the people I play with suddenly all started to compete with stronger and stronger decks using proxied cards, I'd feel more likely to quit playing with them than try to keep up. Not everyone is looking for power.
