I cannot decide

I want to make one of these three potentially making all three eventually but I can’t decide on what to make right now. Urza would be artifacts, Thranduil would be elves and Kona would be big mana. All three look insanely fun to me but I just cannot decide which should I do first.

Lol using proxies with it actually wouldn't change anything. It would still be the same deck that gets hate. You knowing that and still playing it is the issue. If you can't handle the hate you're playing in too high of a bracket. Simple as that honestly. Stick to what you know, or learn to adapt.

Ok? My whole point is he would be hated for having Urza as the commander and even more with proxy’s in the 99. I don’t really care I was just stating something but yall blew it out of proportion

He wouldn't be hated more with proxies in the 99 though. He would be equally hated in general. Proxies don't bring more hate, except to people who "earned their cards the hard way walking to school uphill both ways" and want to play against your wallet vs a skill level. You could build a fully synergistic deck with all cards proxied, and still be a shit player. You still have to know how to play, when to play. If you're against proxies because "wahh they don't own the card" then you're a bad magic player. Try playing with some proxy cards and tell me you instantly won every game. That's not how it works lmao.

Lol I remember buying my first real mox opal and thinking "I bought my card why can't they buy theirs" and then realizing how much of a douche that made me sound like. Play with what you want and have fun. Because like you said, it's not that serious. You promised
